kia, the company
Now that you are the owner of a KIA Vehicle, you'll probably
be asked a lot of questions about your vehicle and the company
like "What is a KIA?," "Who is KIA?," "What does 'KIA'
mean?"
Here are some answers. First, KIA is the oldest car company in
Korea. It's a company that has thousands of employees focused
on building high-quality vehicles at affordable prices.
The first syllable, KI, in the word "KIA" means "to arise from
to the world" or "to come up out of to the world". The second
syllable, A, means "Asia". So, the word KIA, means "to arise
from" or "to come up out of Asia to the world".
Enjoy your Vehicle!
