A bit of air can save you a lot at the pump!

The Holidays are upon us!  Naturally, everyone wants to be with family during the holidays, and that means traveling.  With the high price of gasoline, traveling for the Holidays can be very costly.  We are here to help you though!  Here is a tip, from fueleconomy.gov, to optimize the number of miles you get out of each tank:

Keep your tires properly inflated.

 
You can improve your gas mileage by up to 3.3 percent by keeping your tires inflated to the proper pressure. Under-inflated tires can lower gas mileage by 0.3 percent for every 1 psi drop in pressure of all four tires. Properly inflated tires are safer and last longer.

The proper tire pressure for your vehicle is usually found on a sticker in the driver's side door jamb or the glove box and in your owner's manual. Do not use the maximum pressure printed on the tire's sidewall.


Fuel Economy Benefit:                                              3%
Equivalent Gasoline Savings:      Approx. $0.11/gallon 

If you notice that your tires are looking worn down while checking the pressure, head on over to the Concord Kia Service Specials page to check out our great service specials!

1944Founding of the Company

 1957The first domestic bicycle produced


1953The first Kia brandmark was designed by overlapping a triangular draft ruler with a gear wheel symbolizing the machine industry and a benzene ring symbolizing the chemical industry.
This brandmark was first applied in the mid-1950s to the front head of the ‘3000’ series bicycle.

 
1969T-600 Truck


 
1975Korea's first automobile export
 
 
1989Capital

 
1999Hyundai-Kia Automotive Group formed

 
2004.03.18Kia’s current CI was developed in conjunction with the rollout of its new global brand strategy and its introduction was timed with the release of the New Sportage.
Because of the high recognition level of Kia’s prior brandmark, a visual touch-up rather than a full redesign of the corporate identity was chosen. The three dimensional oval adds a young and lively feel while the deeper red expresses a more dynamic, sophisticated image.
