číslo 22 november 2006 Rio je najlepší model do 15 000 USD Rio is the most wanted model under $15,000 Redaktori internetového portálu Edmunds.com, ktorý prináša aktuálne informácie z oblasti automobilizmu, vyhlásili model Kia Rio 2007 za najlepší sedan s cenou do 15 000 USD. Päťdverový model Kia Rio 2007 bol taktiež vyhlásený za najlepšiu kombi verziu s cenou do 15 000 USD. Ako uviedol Karl Brauer, šéfredaktor Edmunds.com: Víťazné automobily ponúkajú najlepšie výkonové parametre vo svojej triede, kvalitu, štýl a hodnotu pre svojich majiteľov. Redaktori portálu Edmunds.com označili Rio za vozidlo určené pre tých vodičov, ktorí vyhľadávajú potešenie z jazdy, kvalitné vybavenie a celkové pohodlie. Ocenenia portálu Edmunds.com sú udeľované každoročne od roku 1999. Ceny sú vyhlasované pre najlepšie vozidlo daného roka v 33 kategóriách. Edmunds.com, the premier online resource for automotive information, named the 2007 Kia Rio as the Edmunds.com editors most wanted sedan under $15,000 and named the 2007 Kia Rio5 as the Edmunds.com editors most wanted wagon under $15,000. The editors most wanted winners provide class-leading performance, quality, style and value, said Karl Brauer, Editor-in-Chief at Ed munds.com. In selecting the Kia Rio, Edmunds.com s editorial staff proclaimed that the vehicle will serve buyers looking for a pleasant drive, useful features and overall comfort. The Edmunds.com editors most wanted awards have been awarded annually since 1999. Winners are named for the Most Signifi cant Vehicle of the Year in each of 33 market-relevant categories. Magentis získal najvyššie hodnotenie za bezpečnosť Magentis earns the highest safety rating Model Kia Magentis 2007 získal najvyššie možné hodnotenie 5 hviezdičiek v najnovších predných a bočných nárazových testoch, ktoré robil Národný úrad bezpečnosti diaľničnej prevádzky (NHTSA) v USA. Nový Magentis je spojením charakteristického dizajnu so širším rázvorom a rozchodom kolies, zvýšeným výkonom motora a ekonomickejšou spotrebou. Má výrazne zlepšené jazdné vlastnosti pre silnejší výkon a maximálny komfort pasažierov. Magentis disponuje aktívnymi opierkami hlavy, ktoré pomáhajú zmierniť poranenia krku cestujúcich v prípade zadného nárazu. So šiestimi štandardnými airbagmi, ktoré zahŕňajú okenné airbagy na ochranu hlavy, prezentuje nový model Magentis záväzok spoločnosti Kia poskytovať najvyššiu úroveň štandardnej výbavy v oblasti bezpečnosti vo všetkých vozidlách, ktoré ponúka. The 2007 Kia Magentis has earned the highest possible safety rating fi ve stars for all seating positions in the latest frontal and side impact crash tests by the U.S. Department of Transportation s National Highway Traffi c Safety Administration (NHTSA). The Magentis combines distinctive styling with a longer wheelbase, a wider track, increased horsepower, better fuel economy and dramatically improved driving dynamics for enhanced performance and passenger comfort. New Magentis employs standard front active headrests that move up and forward to help mitigate neck injuries to front occupants in the event of a rear-impact collision. With six standard airbags, including full-length side-curtain airbags the all-new Magentis continues Kia s commitment to offering the highest level of standard safety features in all of its vehicles. 2 KIA Motors Slovakia, s. r. o.

November 2006 issue 22 Magentis a Carnival ocenené svojimi majiteľmi Magentis and Carnival appreciated by their owners Mimoriadnu spokojnosť so svojimi novými autami vyjadrili majitelia nových modelov Kia Magentis a Carnival. Obidva automobily dosiahli najvyšší Index celkovej hodnoty vo svojich kategóriách a získali ocenenie Total Value Index za rok 2006, ktoré udeľuje prieskumná agentúra Strategic Vision v USA. Strategic Vision skúmala spokojnosť viac ako 64 000 nových zákazníkov, ktorí si kúpili automobil medzi októbrom 2005 a marcom 2006, a pýtala sa ich množstvo otázok ohľadom užívania vozidla počas prvých 90 dní vlastníctva. Pre určenie Indexu celkovej hodnoty boli posudzované parametre ako spoľahlivosť, záruka, predpokladaná cena pri opakovanom predaji a životnosť. Ocenenie Total Value Index je významným úspechom, pretože odráža pozitívne skúsenosti, ktoré majú vlastníci nových automobilov značky Kia, uviedol Len Hunt, viceprezident a COO spoločnosti Kia Motors America. Nový Magentis a Carnival ponúkajú vysokú úroveň komfortu, bezpečnosti a širokú ponuku príslušenstva za skvelú cenu. Sú ďalším dôkazom oživenia, ktoré našej značke priniesli produkty novej generácie, dodal Len Hunt. Owners of the all-new Kia Magentis sedan and Carnival minivan have expressed extreme satisfaction with their new cars. Both products earned top honors in their respective categories in Strategic Vision s 2006 Total Value Index. Strategic Vision surveyed more than 64,000 new car buyers who purchased their vehicle between October 2005 and March 2006 in the USA, asking an array of questions about their fi rst 90 days of ownership. Components of Total Value include reliability, warranty, anticipated resale value and durability. The Total Value Awards are a signifi cant achievement because they are a direct refl ection of the positive experience Kia owners are having with their new vehicles, said Len Hunt, executive vice president and COO, Kia Motors America. The all-new Magentis and Carnival offer high levels of comfort, convenience and safety at a tremendous value, and is further proof of the excitement our next generation products are delivering to the brand, Len Hun added.
