Kia started its sales in the United States in 1994 with the Sephia and Sportage models. However, it was not until the early 2000s that Kia began to gain popularity in the US market. This was due to a number of factors, including:
  • Kia's focus on quality manufacturing and durable materials.
  • Kia's introduction of more stylish and appealing vehicles, such as the Sorento SUV and the Forte sedan.
  • Kia's competitive pricing.
  • Kia's aggressive marketing campaigns.
By the mid-2000s, Kia was one of the fastest-growing automakers in the United States. This growth continued into the 2010s and 2020s, as Kia continued to introduce new and innovative vehicles. Today, Kia is one of the most popular automakers in the United States, with a wide range of vehicles to choose from.

Here are some of the most popular Kia models in the United States:
  • Kia Sportage
  • Kia Telluride
  • Kia Sorento
  • Kia Forte
  • Kia Seltos
Kia vehicles are known for their quality, style, and affordability. They are also backed by a comprehensive warranty, which gives drivers peace of mind.

 
Kia motors actually broke into the American market organically. It was in 2010 that they really had a foothold in the American market with focus on warranty, design and value. These three propositions propelled their growth in the American market till it now has a subsidiary called Kia America.
