New Kia models 'combine value and quality'
Feb 9 2009In news that may be pleasing to bad Car Credit customers, Kia Motors has announced that its latest models offer excellent value and low running costs.
The new Picanto Red and Rio Black boast plenty of kit, but are available at low prices, with the Picanto benefiting from low vehicle excise duty.
Because of its low emissions - 118 grams of CO2 per kilometre - the model incurs VAT costs of 335 per year. On the road, the vehicle is available from £7,645.
Meanwhile, bad car credit customers will be able to secure themselves a Rio Black for £8,745.
Paul Philpott, managing director of Kia Motors UK, commented: "Times are tough for us all and we think Picanto Red and Rio Black are here at just the right time.
"Good value, high quality products with low running costs are the order of the day right now and these two fit the bill perfectly."
In addition, the brand has announced that they will hold off any price increases until after March, which may be good new for bad car credit customers looking to invest in a new model before spring.
The vehicle maker also saw an increase in global sales of 8.4 per cent in 2008.
