Kia wants you to consider its 2010 Soul a template ripe for customization, and if you can’t think of funky things to do with it, Kia will be glad to help you. This is the Kia Ignition Soul – the second special edition after the 1,200 Denim Souls released earlier this year – in “scorching” Ignition Orange, with offset black striping and blacked-out 18-inch rims, an alloy gas...

Recognized for numerous accolades in 2009, the Kia Sedona minivan returns to the 2010 line-up and remains a segment leader in value and safety. Highly praised with a ‘Good’ rating and being chosen as a Top Safety Pick while being noted as the safest minivan ever tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), a five-star crash rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and named a ‘Best Buy’ by Consumer’s Digest, Sedona offers Long Wheelbase (LWB...

Kia’s cubist Soul takes much inspiration from the boxy Scion xB, including mimicking Scion’s practice of rolling out special editions. Like Scion, Kia’s special-edition Souls are factory customs of sorts that upgrade the looks of the vehicle but not the performance.
The Ignition is the second special-edition Soul—the first was last summer’s Denim Soul, which didn’t actually have denim inside—and two more are yet to come. It features what Kia calls a “rally-inspired skin”, but is... Read Full Story

Forgive us for expecting more of the same mediocrity out of the 2010 Kia Forte SX. But this surprising compact sedan had us at its 67.3-mph slalom performance — less than 1 mph behind the benchmark Mazda 3 s. The Forte SX still packs plenty of Kia's trademark value, but more than that, it's one of the best-driving cars in its class. Read Full Story

2011 Kia Sorento- Click above for high-res image gallery
Perhaps the most important fact about the all new Kia Sorento isn’t that it’s a “right-sized” compact CUV. If Kia’s boundless enthusiasm is any indication, the most important fact is that the 2011 Sorento is the first Kia designed and built in entirely in the USA. In fact, Kia claims that their all-new West Point, Georgia manufacturing plant will not only create 2,500... Read Full Story
