Kia Corporation, formerly known as Kyungsung Precision Industry and Kia Motors Corporation, is a South Korean multinational automobile manufacturer headquartered in Seoul. It is the second largest automobile manufacturer in South Korea, with over 2.8 million vehicles sold in 2019. Kia is owned by Hyundai, with Hyundai holding a 33.88% stake valued at just over US$6 billion. Kia, in turn, is a minority owner of more than twenty Hyundai subsidiaries, totaling over US$8.3 billion. The name "Kia" comes from the Sino-Korean characters 起 (ki, 'to arise') and 亞 (a, representing 'Asia'), together symbolizing "Rising from (East) Asia".
