Kia surpasses four million production milestone in Europe
Thursday 27 May 2021,12:16 PM IST
Kia Sportage has emerged as the four millionth vehicle to roll out from the company’s Zilina plant in Slovakia. The facility began mass production in 2006 and the first vehicles to be produced at Kia Slovakia were models from the Kia Ceed family. This model line-up continues to be designed, engineered, and manufactured in Europe.
Kia Slovakia produced its one-millionth vehicle in 2012 and the company claims that every three years since it has added another million vehicles to the manufacturing tally. Now, nine years later, four million cars have rolled off the 7.5-kilometre production line, which is capable of simultaneously producing eight different models. It currently oversees the manufacture of all members of the Ceed family, comprising Ceed, Ceed GT, Ceed Sportswagon, ProCeed, XCeed, and the last three generations of the Sportage.
The four millionth car has rolled off the production line at Kia’s Žilina plant in Slovakia.
A Kia Sportage was the milestone motor at the factory which acted as a springboard for the South Korean brand’s expansion across Europe when it opened 15 years ago.
The first vehicles produced at Kia Slovakia were members of the Kia Ceed family – a model line-up that continues to be designed, engineered and manufactured in Europe specifically to appeal to European customers.
The Ceed range was introduced at the same time as Kia’s industry-leading seven-year warranty, and this winning combination catapulted Kia into the European mainstream.

Supply shortage in car components continue affecting carmakers in Slovakia.
First, the Bratislava-based carmaker Volkswagen decided on suspending the production of its SUV models in late April, restoring production only on May 17 due to a shortage of semiconductor components. The supply shortage then affected the production of the Trnava-based Stellantis, which first halted several shifts and later decided to suspend production completely until May 27.
Most recently, Jaguar Land Rover in Nitra announced that its production would shut down for nine days, starting May 27.
