“It says that I like the simple things in life. Nothing has to be too big or over-the-top for me! It’s very sleek looking.”
“Kia does so much as a car company and has a strong sense of corporate and social responsibility. Their Kia Drive Change program encourages Canadians to make their communities and our country a better place with acts of change such as pledging to drive sober, which keeps us all safe.”
“The Sportage is great on gas and it’s very compact so it’s convenient when we are trying to find those tight spots in downtown Toronto,” says the 44-year-old native
of Hamilton, Ont.
