Kia Problems

Kia is a publicly traded company but is partially owned by Hyundai Motor Group. Hyundai also own Genesis, their luxury subsidiary.

The most expensive new Kia is the Carnival Platinum listed at $62,790. For more info on the latest models check out our pricing and specs page, and you'll find all Kia reviews and news here. 

No, there’s nothing built into the Cerato that might assist you in finding your car.

Most small hatchbacks have similar width footwells, so I would suggest you try the most popular ones, Toyota Corolla, Hyundai i30, Kia Rio etc. to find the one that’s best for you.

Given its origins as a South Korean brand, Kia has three manufacturing facilities in South Korea: the Sohari, Hwaseong and Gwanju Plants. Kia has other facilities around the world; in Monterrey in Mexico and Georgia in the USA. They also make the Telluride out of Hyundai's Ulsan Plant in South Korea.

If there are any common problems and complaints about Kia's reliability or faults, they'll likely show up on our Kia problems page. You can also calculate a car's projected resale value via our price and specs page.

Kia is derived from two Sino-Korean characters: "ki", which means "to come out", and "a", which represents "East Asia". Kia therefore means "to come out of the East".

The cheapest new Kia is the Picanto S Manual listed at $14,190. For more info on the latest models check out our pricing and specs page, and you'll find all Kia reviews and news here. 

Check the build date on the vehicle’s ID plate. That should tell you which model you have.

The clicking sound could be a sign of a weak battery, which is having difficulty coping with the cold weather. Don’t pump the accelerator; that does nothing on a fuel-injected car. Have the battery tested.
