Kia's hard-earned reputation for delivering world-class quality and reliability across its model line was reinforced when Strategic Vision named Kia the highest quality brand under $26,000 in the research-based consultancy’s Total Quality Impact (TQI) study.
Leading the way for Kia were the Sorento and Sedona, which achieved the highest TQI scores in the mid-size CUV and minivan segments, respectively.
Strategic Vision surveyed more than 39,000 new-car owners to select the winners of this year’s Total Quality Impact awards. Owners surveyed praised the Sorento for its excellent value and premium interior design, while others gave the Sedona high marks for its innovative features, interior craftsmanship, and performance.
"Kia's focus on design and technology has nurtured the belief that customers have in the thoughtfulness and quality of their products," said Alexander Edwards, President of Strategic Vision. "The Total Quality Award winners, and other well-performing models like the Optima, point to the success that Kia has had in this regard."
