In just over five years since production started Kia Motors Manufacturing Slovakia has built its 1,000,000th car – a white, diesel-engined Cee’d SW.

Immediately handed over to a Slovakian children’s charity – the Red Nose Clowndoctors – the Cee’d is also the 600,000th version of the Zilina factory’s first car.

The factory now also produces Sportage and Venga.

“Kia Motors Slovakia has achieved an important milestone in its history with the production of the millionth car. We decided to donate it to an organisation which will bring pleasure to children during their stay in hospitals,” said Eek-Hee Lee, president and CEO of Kia Motors Slovakia.
