MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, Aug. 05, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kia Canada today announced their best-ever July sales in the brand’s Canadian history, with 8,300 units sold, representing a 3.7% YoY increase. This impressive achievement is preceded by Kia’s best-ever month in its Canadian history, where it reported 8,647 units sold in June. These record-breaking figures are evidence of Canadians’ continued confidence in Kia Canada to deliver an exceptional driver experience at a great value.
Sorento led sales in July for Kia, with 1,708 total units sold, closely followed by Forte and Seltos, which sold 1,648 and 1,349 units, respectively. “These impressive July figures reassure us that we’re delivering the quality, innovation and performance that Canadians count on us for,” says Elias El-Achhab, Chief Operating Officer at Kia Canada. “Amid these turbulent and trying times, we’re committed to supporting the communities that we call home, and we’re grateful to serve these drivers with the excellence, value and safety we’re known for.”
Kia Canada’s recent promotion ‘Return of the Road Trip Event,’ began in July. Within this incentive, Kia paid, not deferred, the first six months’ of payment on finance and the first 3 months’ payment on leases on some of the brand’s most popular models. This promotion will continue throughout August.
