Kia Motors Corporation has announced that it will target to sell 1.6 million electric vehicles by 2030. This is up by 400,000 units from its previous goal of 1.2 million.

One of the perks of being a carmaker in South Korea is that you can collaborate with some of the hottest K-pop groups in the world. Hyundai Motor Company did just that by tying up with boy band BTS for a remake of the group's hit song "Yet to Come (The Most Beautiful Moment)" for the "Goal of the Century" World Cup campaign song.
