After posting its best first-quarter sales in company history, Kia revealed its ambitious plans to drive “exponential growth” over the next four years.

During its CEO Investor Day, the Korean automaker announced its mid- to long-term strategy. By 2030, Kia aims to sell 4.13 million vehicles, up from roughly 3.14 million last year.

Following a major rebrand in 2021, Kia’s global sales have surged by over 58%, but the company is betting on new electrified vehicles, software, autonomous driving, and robotics to sustain that growth.
