Tally of 2.33 million units means that these two categories will accounting for about 56 percent of their portfolio in 2030 with ICE (internal combustion engine) with 1.86 million units for 44 percent balance.
In India, by the end of this decade, EVS and HEV’s Kia Kia accounts for 43 percent of the overall sales target of 400,000 units, focusing on the ‘newly launched seros’. This means that a rapid buildup of EV and HEV portfolio will appear in the next five years, which is very low to write about the house right now.
Careers, Siros to lead the charge of India
In the recent Kia CEO Investor Day in South Korea, the company’s top management said, “In India, where EV sales are ready to start in Bayana this year, we will focus on Careers EV and Siros EV with the target of reaching 18 percent EV mix by 2030.” This message is loud and clear: Kia aims to re -consider with EVS and HEV in India by the end of the decade and take rivals like Tata Motors, Mahindra and Mahindra, JSW MG Motor, Hyundai etc.
Additionally, Korean car manufacturers will expand their global HEV sales from 490,000 units in 2025 with 990,000 units by 2030. In Europe and Korea, the HEV mixture will be maintained at existing levels, while in North America and India, KIA increased it by 39 percent and 25 percent respectively.
To support HEV sales growth, KIA plans to expand its powertrain supply capacity. By the end of 2025, it aims to secure 680,00 units of annual production capacity, and over the long term, expand the HEV supply to 990,000 units for ‘flexible manner’ for increasing demand for changes in market priorities. The management said, “We will complete our HEV portfolio widely widely in small, medium and large segments.

Kia aims to set up a 400,000-unite sales system by 2030 through the launch of various new models. At the same time, we will strengthen their innovative brand image by offering high -tech features to catch the next generation customers, ‘the management said in the investor meeting.
The company believes that the increasing number of highly educated and high -income consumers with strong purchasing power is joining the brand. The ratio of General Y and Z customers, its major future target segments, are also increasing and, thus, ‘expands an important consumer base’ for long -term development.

Incomplete amendment
“This is a downward revision of 110,000 units from the target of 2030,” the management, “the management said, reflecting a more realistic approach to the Chinese market. This is probably based on the fact that Chinese EVs are progressing rapidly in their domestic markets and foreign sectors. Leading the charge is tireless Biddi which has emerged the latest favorite ahead of Tesla.
For sale in developed markets including North America, Europe and Korea, the Kia is looking at a total matching of 2.46 million units of total sales or a total matching of 59 percent. In emerging markets, the idea is to sell 1.73 million units in India, Middle East and Asia-Pacific.

For EVS, it will develop its volume lineup starting with EV3, EV4 and EV5, spread to EV2, to bridge EV Chase and help in the cause of mass electrification.
New mobility opportunities
Starting with PV5 this year, Kia will continue to expand its PBV (objective -built vehicle) lineup to create new mobility business opportunities, including entry into the pickup segment to strengthen its competitive edge.
The car manufacturer will also strengthen its global supply chain, which will look at an additional 200,000 units of production capacity with a new PBV-dedicated plant in Korea. Abroad, it will take advantage of existing plants in major areas to ensure timely supply and address demand for address.
The KIA finally strengthened our EV leadership and market status’ by 2030 by 2030 to increase its global EV market share from 2.3 percent to 4.3 percent. It will continue to expand the lineups with EV4, EV5 and EV2, forming a strong volume EV portfolio.
Kia is also planning to ‘increase price competition’ by innovating the EV cost structure. As part of this drive, it will ‘optimize hardware’ by focusing on internal and external design that provides meaningful value to customers.
Software capabilities
‘Simultaneously, we will standardize EV software by implementing Next-Jen E/E architecture and carrying forward vehicle software capabilities.
In addition, we plan to develop the next generation battery that improves both cost efficiency and product competition, ‘extends management.
In addition, Kia will expand the EV-surrendered service centers and strengthen the capabilities of its technicians. Distance clinical services will also be offered to ‘maximize customer facility’.
According to Kia, in 2025, global motor vehicle demand is estimated to increase only 0.3 percent, which reaches 84.6 million units and thus, indicate a recession. The Korean market is expected to see a slight increase in the low base effect despite the weak consumer spirit of the economic recession.
The US market is estimated to achieve moderate development in 2025, supported by solid consumer expenses and a strong job market. Europe is likely to face the lack of development due to strict emission rules, while India is expected to maintain its growth pace on the back of strong economic infrastructure and improve consumer sentiment.
India in 2025
‘In India, we aim to achieve 300,000 units in retail and 6.9 percent market share, through the launch of Siros and the facelift model of Carns. To reach 300,000 units in domestic sales, we will strengthen the network by securing new dealers, rebuilding the training system to improve dealer capabilities and increase service.
China is estimated to remain on a low-development trajectory, despite the government’s support and publicity efforts publicized by the vehicle manufacturers. Despite these challenging circumstances, Kia has set her 2025 target 3.22 million units in bulk, 3.17 million units in retail and 3.7 per cent in global market share.
‘We will react flexible to rapidly changing market dynamics and lead to EVS’s popularity. In addition, we will diversify our development drivers to ensure successful achievement of our business goals, ‘the management said.
