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. The South Korean carmaker is also looking at a total of 4.3 million overall sales by that year. That means its EV sales will represent only 37% of the whole pie, and this will be buoyed by an EV lineup of 15 models by 2027.

After months of teaser photos and a “world tour” of the concept version, the production 2024 Kia EV9 sport-utility vehicle (SUV) has finally been revealed.
