Initially, there was a firm named Kyungsung Precision Industry and then in year 1952 it was named as KIA motors and this was the time when the company started producing trucks, motorcycles and cars.KIA Motors then started production in corporation with Ford in year 1986, and because of this collaboration a large number of automobiles were produced for both domestic purposes and also being exported to different other countries. By the year 1992, KIA started to launch its automobiles in the United States and then by year 1994, a launch was being made at the city of Oregon and Portland. On the other hand, KIA motors were being bankrupted because of the Asian financial crisis that appeared in year 1997. Later on, in year 1998, one of their rivals named as Hyundai Motor Company took the brand.In the present times, KIA is one of the fastest growing automobile brand in the Europe and the U.K. in 2008, KIA motors was able to sell more than one million automobiles all around the world. This is a little history of the brand KIA. If you are considering buying KIA cars and you are having a limited budget then you can certainly opt for secondhand KIA vehicles.
