Kia America reports 67,264 vehicle sales in the United States in September, which is almost 20 percent more than a year ago. So far this year, the company sold 604,674 vehicles (up 17 percent year-over-year).<\/p>\n

According to the report, in September, Kia sold 2,084 EV6, which is a 45 percent increase year-over-year and about 3.1 percent of the total volume. The result is not as high as in the case of its Hyundai sister brand, but it’s positive.<\/p>\n

The company also offers the all-electric Kia Niro EV, but it does not provide the sales results for it (it’s counted together with the ICE version).<\/p>\n

  <\/p>\n

  During the third quarter of 2023, Kia sold a total of 6,470 EV6 (up 30 percent year-over-year) so it was the second-best quarter so far (after Q2 2022 with 7,287 units).<\/p>\n

  So far this year, Kia sold more than 14,000 EV6 in the US, which is still about a 21 percent decrease year-over-year.<\/p>\n

  Kia BEV sales year-to-date (YOY change):<\/p>\n

  \n
  • Kia EV6: 14,798 (down 16%) and 2.4% share<\/li>\n
  • Kia Niro EV: N\/A<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    In the case of the Kia Niro EV, we know from a separate source that through August its sales exceeded 8,000 (up 17 percent year-over-year).<\/p>\n

    For reference, during the 12 months of 2022, Kia sold 20,498 EV6 in the US and an additional 8,209 Niro EV, which in total means over 28,700 units.<\/p>\n

    Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not report sales of other plug-in models, as they are counted together with conventional or non-rechargeable hybrid versions.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    While Kia continues to improve its BEV sales, the most important thing is ahead of us – the market launch of the Kia EV9 model. This all-new, three-row SUV will start at an MSRP of $54,900.<\/p>\n

    Not only that, starting in 2024, the Kia EV9 will be locally produced in the US (as the second manufacturing site beside South Korea) and eligible for the $7,500 federal tax credit.<\/p>\n
