Like a wizard waving a magic wand, Kia, with its Power to Surprise, will be opening several dealerships come third quarter of this year.

Aligada expressed excitement over the new set of unboxing to be done this year.

“I am very excited to announce that Kia Philippines hopes to continue the gains it has made in 2019 by expanding our reach and allowing us to give Filipinos more surprises,” he said.

“We, together with our business partners, are confident that this move will help strengthen the brand’s presence and show the Filipino people that we are here for them, despite the challenges we are facing today,” Aligada added.
