Kia sales are flying high in spring 2019.<\/p>\n
More people than ever have been shopping for new Kia deals, if figures from the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA) are anything to go by.<\/p>\n
According to the organisation, Kia Motors has recorded its best ever quarterly sales figures in Europe during the first three months of 2019, with 132,174 units sold for a growth of 0.6 per cent.<\/p>\n
In the UK, sales for the month of March alone reached 18,345 units, up 1.4 per cent year-on-year and despite the total British car market being down 3.4 per cent.<\/p>\n
Kia Motors Europe's Emilio Herrera credited the Ceed model's resurgence with this increase in growth, pointing out that the ProCeed five-door shooting brake has been particularly popular.<\/p>\n
Indeed, 3,908 units of this model were sold in the first three months of 2019 and sales in March equalled the 2018 full-year figures for its predecessor.<\/p>\n
This makes the Ceed the brand's second-bestselling model behind the Sportage compact SUV.<\/p>\n
"With the ongoing expansion and renewal of our product portfolio, we are putting ourselves in a strong position to secure further sustainable growth in Europe," Mr Herrera added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
