Kia is doing its part to save the planet with modern assembly plants that generate a lot less pollution than in the past, a new report shows.

While automobile production has increased over the last 12 months, the environmental impact has proven smaller thanks to lower greenhouse gas emissions levels, less waste, and reduced water use across Kia’s domestic production sites. In fact, 93.7% of waste materials are now recycled.

A strong focus on recycling, employee sustainability initiatives, reducing unit waste, and cleaner, more modern production methods have made it all possible.
