The continued crossover obsession has pushed automakers to find niche upon niche. The Seltos, Kia’s latest entry into the fray, splits the difference between the sub-compact and plain ol’ regular-compact classes.

Kia’s new sub-compact crossover has an uphill battle on its hands. Can it prevail?

Kia’s “Grand Utility Vehicle” boasts the sort of seats you’d expect when flying first class.

September is almost here, which in the auto industry means the arrival of 2021 models for almost every car you are thinking of buying. It also means that a lot of manufacturers and dealers will be looking to dispose of the 2020 models – with some very attractive deals!

Each year the team at J.D. Power reveals what mainstream car brands owners find most appealing. This year, you might be surprised at the results.

Kia is a popular brand in North America, but many Canadians and Americans may not know the origins of the brand, why it has a close relationship with Hyundai, or where the company makes its vehicles.

The 2021 Toyota Sienna is an all-hybrid entry into a segment that will be almost completely transformed for 2021.

Kia K5 will be just $100 pricier than outgoing Optima. AWD available with 1.6-liter turbo only.

Instead of updating or redesigning the Optima, Kia has rid the North American market of the car altogether.

J.D. Power overhauls its Initial Quality Study for 2020, resulting in a shake-up that sees domestic brands having their best showing in years.

Kia has released the first images of the fourth-generation Sedona—or Carnival in other markets—showing off a new, stately appearance.

Kia Sedona to make its debut this summer. Looks sleeker than before and will likely be more spacious too.

Kia will drop the Optima name for its new mid-size sedan later this year, if a recent EPA fuel mileage listing is any indication.

After weeks of down time, North American automaker production plants are gearing up for a return to work.

You’ve decided that you want to buy an SUV. But given the depreciation rates of today you’ve also decided that the SUV you want is a used one.

It’s a big win for Kia’s biggest vehicle; Soul EV picks up award too, alongside two wins for Porsche and one for Mazda.

Kia has taken the wraps off its upcoming 2021 Sorento SUV, ahead of the vehicle’s official debut at next month’s Geneva Motor Show.

The Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage are two popular choices in the compact crossover segment, and for good reason: they share a lot in common.

Two segments growing faster than any other in today’s market are crossovers and EVs. The former has been growing like gangbusters for ages, with everyone from Aston Martin to Volkswagen busying themselves with stuffing their portfolios full of these high riding wagons. As for electric vehicles, manufacturers need to simultaneously appeal to shoppers while offering rigs with one eye on Johnny Polar Bear. Merging the two makes more than a lick of sense for the customer who makes treks to the hockey rink but brings burnt kale chips as a snack.

Kia will likely grow its crossover lineup later this week, based on a teaser image for the LA Auto Show.

If you know cars, then you already know that the folks at Kia have hit on something special with the Stinger. From its powerful twin turbo V6 engine to the aggressive styling, the Stinger has been making believers out of skeptics with its uncompromising blend of utility, performance and luxury.

Every car you own comes with a story – how you bought it, and why, whether it was love at first sight, or it surprised you, what made it stand out from the pack. Our friends at Kia Canada asked Canadian Stinger owners to share their stories about why they opted for a Stinger over other high-performance sedans.

There are plenty of reasons to love the Kia Stinger, a sports sedan that’s been steadily converting skeptics to full-fledged enthusiasts thanks to its uncompromising blend of utility, performance and luxury.

Every car you own comes with a story – how you bought it, and why, whether it was love at first sight, or it surprised you, what made it stand out from the pack. Our friends at Kia Canada recently asked Canadian Stinger owners to share their own stories about why they opted for a Stinger over other high-performance sedans.

The first time I saw the Kia Forte GT, it was a complete surprise.

It’s never a simple task to pick the coolest cars on sale, but our team of opinionated experts is up to the challenge.

The Honda Civic has beat every compact car we’ve compared it against so far: the Mazda3, Subaru Impreza, and Toyota Corolla. That’s an impressive feat seeing as all of those competitors are much newer than the Civic, which came out in 2015. 

After Kia dropped the Stinger on us, (a car that won our car of the year when it debuted) many were left wondering how the automaker would follow up on its success. The Stinger was premium, well equipped and matched cars from a class above it.

Surprising is the best way to describe Kia’s latest new models. The all-new Stinger made such a splash that it earned our car of the year award, and we were left wondering what’s next to come from the Korean automaker. The answer is the Kia Telluride, a three-row crossover that is a bit late to the game but can one-up almost every rival in the segment.

Got a litter of kiddies and can’t figure out what vehicle to buy? We’ve some recommendations for you!

We’re looking for Canadian Kia Stinger owners to take part in an exciting new video project.

The Kia Seltos has debuted as a new subcompact crossover to slot underneath the Sportage in the Korean automaker’s lineup.

The hamsters are gone! The little rodents that once defined the funky Kia Soul are retired now, but the segment-blurring box on wheels remains the weirdo you all know and love. Although it has grown up in many respects, it still doesn’t take itself too seriously, and that’s mostly a good thing.

Are you a young driver in need of a new car or the parent of one that will be making the monthly payments? 

It’s no secret that the pickup truck market is a cash cow for many automakers, and with small pickups gaining popularity again, should a Kia Telluride pickup truck be considered?

The 2019 Kia Soul EV is an electric car that doesn’t feel like a sideshow or afterthought. It’s fully baked and gives drivers everything they want: Style, range, features, and excellent driving dynamics.

The Kia HabaNiro is a peppery concept car that was just revealed at the New York International Auto Show.

Kia’s sexy Stinger blurs the lines between sedan and station wagon, brandishing athletic design, riotous dynamics and an upscale interior. Giving enthusiasts even more of what they love, the automaker will offer an enhanced model starting this spring.

The Kia Forte is the Korean brand’s compact car that competes with vehicles like the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. Offered in both sedan and hatchback forms, it’s been completely redesigned for 2019. Now in its third generation, the Forte gains more technology, interior space, refinement and even a dramatic new look inspired by the brand’s Stinger fastback. After a week in the saddle, here are a few pros and cons of this fresh-faced Kia.

The Kia Sportage and Kia Sorento may look a bit similar, but these two crossovers are actually quite different.

Kia has used the 2019 Seoul Motor Show to give us a glimpse into the future of its crossover portfolio.

Another Geneva Motor Show is in the rear-view mirror, which means it’s time for us to start making fun of all the stuff we didn’t like.

You’ve probably heard by now that sedans are not selling as well as they used to. The once popular body style is losing favor to the more family-friendly and rugged SUV, which offers all-wheel drive capability in addition to more space.

Kia has updated its popular Sportage utility vehicle for the 2020 model year, unveiling it at the Chicago Auto Show.

Kia has finally embraced the American mindset with its biggest vehicle ever. Called the Telluride, this eight-seat crossover has been designed from the ground up with the U.S. in mind.

We’re setting our sights on a whole new year of automotive excellence. We can’t wait to see what new cars debut in 2019, but there are a few that have already caught our eye. We can’t wait to drive these new cars or see them fully revealed. Here’s what we’re looking forward to:

The BMW 3 Series is the sports sedan that supported a whole brand and launched an entire market segment, with countless of other automakers chasing that perfect blend of luxury and fun that the 3 always managed to perfect.

A broad diversity of products debuted at this year’s L.A. Auto Show, from pickup trucks and crossovers to small cars and luxury offerings.

The Kia Soul has always stood out for being unique and a new-generation model has just debuted still firmly waving that flag.

Hyundai and Kia have unveiled a new way to charge electrified vehicles: Roof or body-mounted solar panels.

The 2020 Kia Forte GT debuted at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, a show where automakers typically go overboard on crazy paint colors an unrealistic mods.

American automakers continue to have some of the least reliable cars available.

Consumer Reports has released its annual Car Reliability Survey and there are a few surprises.

The Kia e-Niro crossover just made its debut at the 2018 Paris Motor Show. It’s the South Korean automaker’s first all-electric crossover.
