KIA AND MOTORSPORT

Kia Motors Europe does not currently support any major motor sport series, e.g. WTCC, TCR, WRC or Rally Cross with either development of racing cars, sponsoring or marketing/communication. However, there are nationally initiated motorsport activities, i.e. The Polish Lotos Race. Kia Lotos Race is a championship racing series run by Kia Motors Polska since 2006 and focuses on rivalry of selected contenders driving professionally-tuned Kia Picanto cars. Dedicated in principle for young beginners, Kia Lotos Race enables them to take the first step in the world of motor-car racing, now also on an international level!
