Year to end-September exports were up 19.1% to 614,386.
September sales grew 44.0% in Europe, 10.9% in the ‘general market’, and 2.1% in North America compared to the same period last year.
Kia’s best selling export in both September and the nine months was the C-segment Cerato (Spectra) with 91,071 units, followed by the A-segment Picanto (88,160), and Sorento SUV (86,450).
Kia said the sales increase has been driven by continued strong sales of the recently launched redesigned Sportage SUV and a good initial buyer reaction to the recently launched redesigned B-segment Rio sedan and hatchback.
