Kia’s EV sales soar 74% in US, hitting record-breaking milestones in 2024

Kia Corporation has achieved a landmark year in the US, with electric vehicles (EVs) leading the charge in reshaping its portfolio.

The South Korean automaker reported a stunning 74% year-over-year growth in EV sales for 2024, accounting for 7% of its total sales.

But the story doesn’t end with electric cars. Kia’s success is also driven by a strategic focus on the booming SUV segment, which represented a massive 76% of the company’s sales for the year, an 8% jump from 2023.

SUVs and EVs shape Kia’s best year yet

Kia’s diverse lineup was instrumental in achieving its record-breaking annual sales of 796,488 vehicles in 2024, marking the company’s highest-ever sales figure for the second consecutive year.

The December sales figures alone tell a compelling story, with Kia selling 73,303 units—its best month in history.

A standout performer was the EV9, which emerged as a game-changer for Kia’s EV ambitions.

The model experienced an extraordinary 1,869% growth, cementing its place as a flagship offering.

Meanwhile, SUVs like the Sportage and Telluride also set annual sales records, highlighting Kia’s ability to cater to the continued demand for versatile, family-friendly vehicles.

Kia’s success in the US reflects broader trends in the automotive industry, where sustainability is becoming a critical driver of growth.

The company has not only responded to rising consumer interest in EVs but also proactively expanded its hybrid lineup, as seen with the introduction of the Carnival hybrid powertrain.

This approach has allowed Kia to position itself as a leader in the transition to green mobility, even as traditional automakers scramble to adjust their strategies.

Can Kia sustain its momentum?

As Kia moves into 2025, the company faces the challenge of maintaining its momentum in an increasingly competitive market.

With rivals launching new EV models and government incentives evolving, the landscape will demand continuous innovation and adaptability.

Kia’s focus on SUVs and EVs provides a strong foundation for future growth.

The company must also navigate potential challenges, such as supply chain disruptions and fluctuating raw material costs for batteries.

Expanding its EV offerings and enhancing its hybrid portfolio could be crucial to sustaining its leadership in the US market.

The record-breaking figures for 2024 mark a significant milestone for Kia, but they also set high expectations.

The company’s ability to leverage its current success while adapting to future market dynamics will determine whether it can maintain its position as a frontrunner in the automotive industry.
