MISSISSAUGA, ON, May 1 - Kia Canada retailed 4,276 vehicles this April, up 15 percent from the same month last year, to record the best sales month in the company's ten year history in Canada. On a year-to-date basis, Kia Canada's sales are 9 percent higher than 2008 sales through April.

The award winning Kia Soul continues to delight customers and accounted for 1,017 units in April, in only its second month of retail sales. "Kia Canada is clearly changing people's perceptions because of our new design direction," said Shelley Tavener, Public Relations Manager at Kia Canada. "Our award winning Soul and recently launched Forte are delivering something new, intriguing and relevant to today's buyers - distinctive design combined with quality and value for the money."

Other Highlights:
The Kia Integrity Advantage Program, which was launched last month, continues to generate significant consumer interest and traffic to Kia showrooms. The Program provides customers with peace of mind to purchase a vehicle in these uncertain times, by enabling them to return their financed or leased vehicles within the first year of ownership in the event of certain unforeseen life circumstances.
