  • Kia proudly celebrates its 80th anniversary with a historic achievement—$25 billion USD in exports—earning the prestigious ‘Top of Export’ award for the second consecutive year at the 61st Trade Day ceremony in Seoul. This milestone is a testament to our dedication to innovation, mobility solutions, and global brand competitiveness. From pioneering electric vehicles like the EV6 and EV9 to dominating the SUV and hybrid markets, Kia continues to lead the way in shaping the future of mobility. We are especially proud to recognize President and CEO of Kia North America and Kia America SeungKyu (Sean) Yoon, who was awarded the ‘Gold Tower Industrial Medal’, one of Korea’s highest honors, for his remarkable contributions to Kia’s export and sales growth. Since 2018, he has driven extraordinary results as the head of Kia’s North American operations, playing a critical role in enhancing Kia’s global presence and performance. Key highlights from this incredible journey: • Global Leadership: Kia achieved record-breaking export growth, securing the top position among over 1,540 award-winning companies. • EV Revolution: A sevenfold surge in EV exports since 2019, driven by models like the EV9, crowned ‘2024 World Car’ and ‘North American Utility Vehicle of the Year’. • Global Reach: Kia expanded exports across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and emerging markets like Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. • Mobility solutions in Action: Establishment of Kia’s parent company, Hyundai Motor Group’s first dedicated EV factory to accelerate our EV production and exports. As Kia looks to the future, we remain committed to driving innovation and meaningful contributions to the global economy. Thank you to our incredible team, partners, and customers who make this journey possible. #Kia #GlobalLeadership #Innovation #Sustainability #ElectricVehicles #ExportDay2024 #MovementThatInspires
