Kia has been hard at work producing some great models in the recent years. They opened up their first ever United States plant down in the West Point, GA where the new 2011 Sorento is rolling off assembly lines. Yup, they’ve got a lot to be proud of right now. To add to their success, one Kia sedan was a recent IIHS “Top Safety Pick”: The 2010 Kia Forte.
The 2010 Kia Forte has been named Car of the Year at the NADAguides.com Awards (the leading provider of vehicle pricing and information) at the Los Angeles International Auto Show. Citing the car’s “best in class” features and stylish interior and exterior design, the group said the Kia compact was a standout vehicle in a pretty impressive field. And what’s more, the Kia Forte is also…get this…affordable. See for yourself at Round Lake used car and new car dealer, Classic Kia.

Kia appeared at the Detroit auto show – not featuring a new product, but rather new technology. This new technology was a hands-free in-car infotainment system, called Uvo (meant to stand for “Your Voice”).

Uvo also includes a USB port which enables drivers to store songs to 1 GB of memory, which Kia calls “the jukebox.” This newly offered technology is available with the 2011 Kia Sorento, making the new model even more valuable and interesting to consumers. Car shoppers can buy their Waukegan Kia Sorento at Waukegan cheap used car dealerships. Kia Sorentos can also be found at Gurnee used car dealerships, as well as other new and used car dealerships across the nation. … Continue Reading
