Super Bowl Sunday is fast approaching which means it is time for the revealing of some of the most high profile commercials of the year. The 2016 Super Bowl marks the seventh year of Kia’s participation in the annual ad battle, and this year we are joined by none other than Academy Award-winning actor Christopher Walken. As one of the most renowned actors in Hollywood, Mr. Walken shines gloriously in his performance as a quirky closet invader, sock connoisseur, and Kia spokesperson in the newly revealed spot for the 2016 Kia Optima. “There are two types of people in the world,” Mr. Walken proclaims, those “content to blend in, these people who walk through life like beige socks” and “those who expect more.” With the snap of his fingers, the Walken closet opens to reveal the all-new Kia Optima and the actor continues his monologue with an amusing metaphor that likens the Optima to a colorful pair of socks: “It’s the new Kia Optima. It’s like the world’s most exciting pair of socks but it’s a midsize sedan.” Mr. Walken’s delivery is hilariously underwhelming but his point is crystal clear. The Kia Optima is not your ordinary run-of-the-mill midsize sedan. Passionately designed and meticulously crafted, the next generation Optima boasts upgraded handling characteristics and a luxurious cabin interior and is expected to devour its ‘beige sock’ competition in the midsize sedan segment. True to Mr. Walken’s words, the all-new Kia Optima refuses to be ordinary. ▶ Learn about the Optima design evolution The 60-second spot is set to broadcast during the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl 50 championship game on February 7 and Christopher Walken’s performance is already generating quite the excitement among global audiences. ▶ See Blake Griffin’s 2016 Optima Commercial Lees hele artikel

What makes a luxury car? It’s a moot point, with brands like Mercedes-Benz dipping their toes in the mid-market with the CLA sedan. Does this model somehow negate the glorious motoring history of the brand? Or is it just a … Continue reading → Lees het hele artikel

With the steady increase in SUV sales over the last five years, the number of SUVs sold is expected to overtake the number of sedans in the near future. This growth in the SUV market is highly associated with the increasing consumer demand for multi-functional vehicles that provide transport through both rough roads and intricate city traffic. Furthermore, the evolving sophistication of today’s SUVs provides comfort, functionality and flexibility and they are emerging as a popular choice among global consumers The Sportage stands strongly as one of the most popular models in the segment and has been a major driver behind the growth and success of Kia Motors. As we gear up for the launch of the promising next-generation Sportage, Kia BUZZ invites you to find out more about the conception, development and evolution of Kia’s game-changing compact SUV! First Generation Sportage (1993-2002) The first generation Sportage was released in overseas markets in 1993 following its world debut at the 1991 Tokyo Motor Show. Kia Motors generated strong global interest with its new urban SUV concept – an approachable SUV model suitable for driving in an urban environment. The 1993 Sportage represented Kia’s successful first foray into the SUV market and enjoyed popularity until it reached the end of production in 2002. Second Generation Sportage (2004-2010) Continuing the legacy of the compact urban SUV, the second generation Sportage returned to the market in 2004. The refreshed design, powerful performance and affordable pricing of the 2004 Sportage appealed to wide range of customers, particular those of a younger driving demographic. In addition, the model gained recognition for its technical excellence, being known as the most fuel efficient SUV in South Korea at the time and receiving the highest safety rating available. Similar to the previous generation model, the second generation Sportage continued to undergo modifications that contributed to the model’s laudable performance and aesthetics. Third Generation Sportage (2010-2015) The enhanced third generation Sportage appeared in 2010, boasting significant changes from the previous models. Defying conventional designs with a uniquely dynamic and sporty look, the Sportage gained recognition for its progressive design, sweeping accolades such as the prestigious Good Design Award and the iF Design Award. Because the Sportage was widely praised for excellence in design, one of the challenging aspects of developing the all-new Sportage was reinventing this successful model for next-generation audiences. The all-new Sportage: Building upon the best Building upon its predecessors, the all-new fourth-generation Sportage once again takes the urban SUV concept to the next level. With an aim of providing attractive aesthetics and enhanced driving experience, the all-new Sportage features a revamped design and a host of technological upgrades that boost the model’s safety, control and performance. The development of the next-generation Sportage began with an in-depth analysis of market trends to best suit the needs of consumers, and Kia did not fail to address the areas where previous Sportage models fell short. The thoughtful design, innovative packaging, premium materials, powerful engine and state-of-the art technology all translate into a stunning modern masterpiece that that is the fourth generation Sportage. ▶ Find out more about the Sportage design ▶ Learn about the new interior features of the Sportage This extensively developed compact SUV, along with the Optima, Kia’s prized midsize sedan, once again took home this year’s iF design award, receiving praise for overall design quality, innovation, environmental impact and safety. With handsome improvements in design and functionality, the all-new Sportage is expected to once again accelerate Kia’s market progress and open a brand new chapter in the company’s history of pioneering the compact urban SUV segment. The anticipation and excitement for the fourth generation Sportage is expectedly high and we cannot wait for the world to enjoy the dynamic contemporary sophistication of our all-new compact SUV!

Kia has unveiled its 2016 Super Bowl commercial starring Christopher Walken. The commercial starts off innocent enough, with a gentleman named Richard asking his wife where his beige socks are. Playing off the idea of a boring, beige “walk-in” closet, Walken talks about how beige socks are uninspired and asks whether Richard wants to just blend in through life like beige socks or wants to have some pizzazz. Walken then reveals the new Kia Optima, saying that it’s like “the world’s most exciting pair of socks.” SEE ALSO: 2016 Kia Optima Review It’s a pretty bizarre commercial, but a good watch nonetheless. There just aren’t many things in this world that are weirder than Christopher Walken with a colorful sock on his hand. Check it out below.

<p>Hallo.<br /> Bovengenoemde auto, daarbij geeft de motor een knerspend, tikkend geluid bij stationair draaien. Het neemt de afgelopen tijd wel iets toe. Bij iets verhogen van dat toerental is het weg. Onder het rijden is het niet te horen.<br /> Er is 268.000 km meer gereden er verder is alles in orde.(Verbruik, temp, vermogen of rook,geen storingmelding.) Ook altijd normaal onderhouden.<br /> Geprobeerd zonder multieriem te laten draaien zonder resultaat. Toch de spanrollen ervan vervangen wat niets uithaalt.<br /> Moet de ditributie, ketting en tandwielen vervangen worden?<br /> Een ruilmotor? of reviseren?<br /> Is er kans op dat een verstuiver die niet goed werkt?<br /> Of de commonrailpomp?<br /> Zou een additief in de smeerolie of tijdelijke spoelolie in de motor de hydr. kettingspanner nog een oppepper kunnen geven?<br /> Gewoon blijven rijden, of wegdoen?<br /> Waar kan ik terecht?<br /> Heel veel dank voor het meedenken!!<br /> <br /> Hephastos</p> Lees het hele artikel

Photo courtesy of Kia Australia Official Facebook With the finals of the Australian Open 2016 coming up this weekend, the first Grand Slam of the season will soon be coming to a close. Playing a key role in promoting the annual competition to worldwide fans, Kia Motors has enjoyed taking part in one of the most anticipated tennis events of the season. Find out what took place in the beautiful and sunny event grounds of Melbourne, Australia! For this year’s tournament, Kia supplied an impressive fleet of 110 vehicles for use by tennis players, officials, event staff and fans. The fleet, composed of the Sorento, Sedona (Grand Carnival) and Cerato, demonstrated the strength and prowess of Kia vehicles by transporting thousands and covering more than 300,000 km during the duration of the tournament. This year marked the second year of the launch of Kia’s X-Car, created in collaboration with Twentieth Century Fox and the X-Men franchise. Modeled after the elegant shape-shifting Mystique, the soon-to-be launched Sportage was transformed into a one-of-a-kind show car. Tennis sensation and Kia brand ambassador Rafael Nadal was at the center of the grand unveiling of the all-new X-Car. Regarded as one of the most prominent left-handed tennis players of all time, Nadal invited fans to figure out the secret of his right arm in a stunningly captivating campaign film. Nadal also participated in the official reveal of the X-Car in Melbourne at the Kia fleet handover ceremony. After the ceremony, the Mystique-inspired Sportage was displayed at the Grand Slam Oval located in Melbourne Park. The annual Kia Open Drive series also commenced, revealing up-close interviews with tournament participants. Conducted in the all-new Sportage, our very own Nadal kick-started this year’s interviews discussing his love of cooking, playing with ping pong balls and showing off a fun new side of himself for global fans.

Kia Motors seems to be making good progress in its continuous efforts for growth and excellence. A recent report by London Economics, a leading independent economic consultancy, has revealed that Kia is making outstanding contributions to Europe, generating numerous socio-economic benefits for the region. Emerging as the growing presence in the European automobile market, Kia continues to gain momentum as a global brand and leading automaker. With the aim of maintaining growth and production, Kia has already made investments worth billions in Europe. In 2014, the brand contributed €934 million in customs duties, sales and corporation taxes to European governments, an 8% increase from €865 million in 2013. Furthermore, Kia has recorded a combined gross valued added (GVA) totaling €2.5 billion, with values added along the value chain of manufacturing, supply, R&D, sales and distribution. The GVA measures a company’s contribution to gross domestic product (GDP) through the value of the goods and services produced, and thus demonstrate Kia’s immense economic contribution to Europe. It is estimated that Kia’s activities in Europe will generate an €7.4 billion in additional output. As a major contributor to exports, Kia is expected to remain a crucial source of growth in the regional economy. The Zilina manufacturing facility in Slovakia has also had an outstanding impact on the regional and domestic market. As of 2014, it is estimated that the plant accounted for 10% of global production and 56% of Kia vehicles sold in Europe. As one of the few production facilities in the world with the capacity to manufacture 8 different models on the same line, this large scale operation makes Kia a major customer of the European supply industry. London Economics reported that the total value of supplies purchased in 2014 amounted to €4.3 billion with 71% (worth €3 billion) sourced directly from within the borders of Europe. ▶ Read more about the Zilina manufacturing plant! Combating Europe’s relatively high unemployment rate, Kia employs 37,000 individuals for the operation of the brand. An additional 116,000 jobs have been created indirectly through the supply chain thanks to the brand’s presence in Europe. Kia goes even further by providing opportunities for skills development and training to maintain stable and sustainable employment and cultivate a large, highly skilled workforce. With various seminars and training programs offered on an ongoing basis, it is estimated that Kia’s distribution network averages 36 hours of training per employee, while often providing workers with formal qualifications. Meanwhile, the research and development conducted by Kia Motors in Europe is expected to reap further long-term benefits. Kia’s R&D activities will be a vital source of ongoing innovation and technological development through knowledge and productivity spillover. As a brand dedicated to philanthropy and social responsibility, Kia Motors commits wholeheartedly to contributing to CSR initiatives. In 2014, Kia allocated an estimated €1.9 million towards various humanitarian projects in the European region alone. In addition to the pan-European Planting for a Better Life initiative developed by Kia Motors Europe, local distributors located in the UK, Slovakia, Spain, Italy, Poland, Germany, Sweden and Denmark are also active with local causes, making notable contributions toward humanitarian aid and environmental conservation. “Europe is a key R&D and production base for Kia on a global scale, and our European output and footprint continues to grow each year,” said Mr. Michael Cole, COO of Kia Motors Europe. “We are pleased to see the London Economics report recognize the scale of our contribution to the European economy.” At the end of the day, it is clear that the brand’s efforts for sustained growth and excellence have created mutually beneficial synergy for both Kia Motors and the European markets.
