Used Kia in Bridgeport WV

Kia initially began as Kyungsung Precision Industry in 1944 and originally manufactured steel tubing and bicycle parts. Their success in that endeavor eventually led to them being contracted by Honda to begin producing small motorcycles in the late 1950’s. And soon Kia was building Mazda-licensed trucks and cars in the ‘60’s & ‘70’s and began manufacturing the Brisa under the Kia badge in 1973. From 1981 – 1986 Kia focused on manufacturing light duty trucks by request of the South Korean government.

 Kia was reintroduced into the automotive market in 1986 from a partnership with Ford, and was soon selling Kia vehicles to the United States in 1992. The Asian financial crisis caused Kia to reach an agreement with Hyundai that created an ownership exchange between the two companies, so Hyundai owns about 51% of Kia and Kia in return has ownership in over 20 Hyundai subsidiaries.
