Review: 2021 Kia Stonic 1.4 EX
Form is very important to the Filipino buyer. Case in point is the 2021 Kia Stonic. While crossovers are all the rage these days, the choices below the sub-million-peso range are slim. Thus, in an enlightened moment of product genius, Kia took the Rio/Soluto, raised its ride height then added roof rails and plastic wheel arches. The result is this: one hip, fashionable, and above all, an unbeatable value-for-money soft-roader. Watch out, sub-compact sedans, this one’s going after your lunch money.

Carmakers can always fight for showroom attention with offerings with better looks, specs, or prices; but at the end of the day, it’s having strong banking partners that will help win customers. Just like the vast majority of car brands locally, 70 percent of Kia buyers rely on financing to seal the deal.

Despite Challenges, Kia PH Confident of Maintaining Spot as Top 10 Best-Selling Car Brands
Behind every dark cloud, they say, lies a ray of hope. The current COVID-19 pandemic that has gripped the world during the past few months has taken its toll on the local economy. The fear of the virus, along with the lockdown, have caused general weakness of consumer confidence, as well as numerous businesses closing shop. This is further aggravated by the challenges facing two major contributors to the country’s economic performance, the Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) and the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry.

Kia PH President Says 2019 Sales Wasn't a Fluke
In their first full year as the distributors of Kia, AC Motors, a wholly-owned company of Ayala Corporation saw its sales rise to 5,019 units compared to 2,238 units in 2018. The 124 percent increase is, undoubtedly, spectacular, but still a far cry from the projected 10,000-unit per annum sales they mentioned at the start of 2019.
