(Mississauga, ON) November 3, 2014 – Kia Canada Inc. reported today 6,010 total vehicles sold in the month of October, up 8.5 per cent versus the same month one year ago. Through the first ten months of the year, Kia has reported 62,195 vehicles sold, down 3 per cent versus the same time period in 2013.

“We are pleased with the year-over-year sales increase in the month which contributed to our second best October on record including the best October for the Georgia-built Sorento SUV” said Jack Uczciwek, Director of Sales for Kia Canada Inc. “Additionally, the all new Soul EV and Sedona Multi Purpose Vehicle (MPV) have started to arrive at Kia dealers providing excitement on the showroom floor and thus resulting in early sales.”
Following the media launch in late September, Kia Canada’s first all-electric vehicle, the Soul EV began to arrive at select Canadian dealerships in October. The Soul EV expands the current Soul line-up offering a no-compromise EV that offers full utility similar to its award-winning gasoline powered sibling.
Also last month, the completely redesigned 2015 Sedona Multi-purpose Vehicle (MPV) began to arrive at Canadian dealerships, raising the bar in the segment with innovative technology, style and added safety features. With its modern appearance and CUV-like cab-forward design, the all-new Sedona completes the restyling of Kia’s entire lineup under the direction of Peter Schreyer. Available in seven- and eight-passenger configurations, the 2015 Sedona advances value to new levels of sophistication with advanced safety features and available driving-aid technologies, premium materials and amenities.
