Didn’t last long.. shame, but guess they’re heavily into electric vehicles now.

I’ve spotted 3, but 66.6% of those spottings were the same vehicle.

How many were sold I wonder?

[Broccers]

A mate of mine worked at Chesterfield kia. I think they sold one while he was there.

[Sundayjumper]

Didn't someone on here buy one ?

I’ve seen a handful and always applaud the driver for being brave enough to not buy a German equivalent.. but think they needed a fully hot version to make any mark and it’s probably too late these days to have a non-hybrid max power version.

I've spotted these quite a few times (got to be double figures) so I always assumed they did ok.

[Beany]

Yeah, I've seen a few around Leeds/Bradford.

Are they depreciating like big Citroens or are they doing OK used value wise?

[Carlos]

I've seen a few about and they look great in the flesh. 365bhp is not to be sniffed at.

Kia have some brilliant vehicles but aspirational they are not !

Saw one on the M6 today. They’re not bad looking but don’t engender as much desire as an EV6 based purely on looks. Shame Kia didn’t push the boat out a bit more with the styling.

They were a bit of a mishmash of ideas and features stolen from other cars which didn’t really gel or fit the market they were aimed at. Shame as some of their other cars are decent looking.

That's a very good question @mik .

HowManyLeft reckons 2174 were sold here.

I don't think I even knew that car existed tbh. Looks good though - and clearly "inspired" by BMW designs which makes sense given who was involved.

I liked them when they first launched but they don’t seem to have aged well. I remember looking at one during a car show and thinking the interior looked and felt exactly how you’d imagine a cheap Korean replica of Mercedes interior to be. You were getting a bargain and you’d know it at every opportunity.

Probably still better made though and more reliable

I wonder how many of them spotted in the wild are the 3.3?
They did a 2.0t petrol and a diesel of some description as well iirc.
