No longer just the "other" Korean automaker to parent company Hyundai, Kia continues to distinguish itself with stylish vehicles that offer high value, a great warranty, and appealing performance. While many buyers are familiar with the Soul and 7-passenger Sorento SUV, Kia's lineup includes some upscale cars like the K5 and Stinger sedans complemented by the award-winning Seltos subcompact SUV.
