• The Defender 90 – The look of the past with the ride quality of the present (5:19)
Feature Story
Can you tell a lot about a vehicle manufacturer by their marketing approach.
For the last 21 years Kia has been the major sponsor of the Australian Open tennis tournament.
The first year of supporting this prestigious event was only some four 4 after the company had declared bankruptcy and they were selling cars very strongly based on price.
Has Kia evolved with the sponsorship deal. Is it a fitting partner for this impressive event.
This year they had their new EV6 electric vehicle to put on display so we spoke to a number of their executives and some other commentators to get a comprehensive picture of the state of play.
