Kia wins bid to provide UN with vehicles
The automaker will provide a variety of Rio, Cerato, and Sorento vehicles, including maintenance services, for the next three years.
“The contract was awarded to KIA Motors with the aim of consolidating the vehicle requirements of the UN Entities to the extent possible, to take advantage of economies of scale, better quality, and better after-sale support package,” said a UN spokesperson. “It is important for the UN and the UN Entities to ensure that vehicles are of good quality with comprehensive after-sale support package. We look forward to having a fruitful engagement with Kia.”
Hyundai Motor, Kia’s sister company, will also be providing its vehicles to UN. The contract between Kia (including Hyundai) and the UN equates to approximately $7m over the next three years, with the possibility of a two-year extension. Hyundai Mobis, part of Hyundai Motor Group, will also be providing automotive parts to the UN.
