KIA is a Korean auto manufacturer, and owned by the Hyundai-Kia Automotive Group, which is the 4th largest automobile manufacturing company in the world. They opened their first American manufacturing plant in Georgia about a year ago.

Your husband does know that American build quality has essentially gone down the drain right? I mean, an American somewhere along the line was the cause of the major Toyota/Lexus recall on pretty much all of their line-up.
Many car manufacturers have assembly plants all over the world, Kia is no exception. So yes, the USDM market cars would be assembled in America. But for the love of God why do you want a Kia?

There is a factory in Georgia where Kia's are made. Subcontractors make parts in both Korea and the US. So it's not a factory, it's an assembly plant

There not made here but you must remember that even if a foreign car IS made in USA only 20% of the profits stay here. The other 80% goes over seas to where the company is from and we don't need to be sending 80% of what you pay for a car to Japan....

The answer is yes KIA is made in the US and the only thing foreign about the company would be the name.
