"Providing journalists with Kia news conveniently and instantaneously on their mobile devices is yet another way the Kia Media virtual pressroom helps our Public Relations team support members of the media," said Michael Sprague, executive vice president of marketing & communications, KMA. "With an increasing percentage of the population that are accessing information exclusively on their Smartphone, the launch of Kia Media mobile is a response to the growing demand for news on the go."
Journalists no longer need to lug around their laptops to access information about Kia--they can simply turn to their phone. Similar to the desktop version, users can browse Kia's latest content or use the search function to quickly reference items by keywords. Kiamedia.com detects the user's device and automatically optimizes the site to give the best possible experience on either platform. If users prefer the full media site experience, they can easily switch to the desktop version on the mobile home page. Also handy is a complete list of Kia public relations contacts.
Kia: One of the World's Fastest Moving Global Automotive Brands
Kia Motors America is one of only three auto brands to increase U.S. sales in each of the past four years, and in 2012 the company surpassed the 500,000 unit mark for the first time. With a full line of fun-to-drive cars and CUVs, Kia is advancing value to new levels of sophistication by combining European-influenced styling - under the guidance of chief design officer Peter Schreyer - with cutting-edge technologies, premium amenities, affordable pricing and the lowest cost of ownership in the industry. Kia recently joined the exclusive ranks of Interbrand's "Top 100 Best Global Brands," and is poised to continue its momentum with seven all-new or significantly redesigned vehicles scheduled to arrive in showrooms in 2013. Over the past decade Kia Motors has invested more than $1.4 billion in the U.S., including the company's first U.S. assembly plant in West Point, Georgia - Kia Motors Manufacturing Georgia - which is responsible for the creation of more than 11,000 plant and supplier jobs. The success of the U.S.-built* Optima and Sorento in two of the industry's largest segments has fueled Kia's rapid growth and is complemented by Kia's comprehensive lineup which includes the Soul urban passenger vehicle, Sportage compact CUV, Optima Hybrid, the Forte sedan, 5-door and Koup compacts, Rio and Rio 5-door sub-compacts and the Sedona minivan.
