Mrs. Josephine Connolly, managing director of Connolly Kia Motors, will be in Chile this week attending the Latin American and Caribbean Unveiling of the all-new fuel-efficient Kia Picanto and Kia Rio.

“The new compact Kia Picanto and Kia Rio are the kind of reliable and fuel efficient cars that we need for the kind of city driving that we do here in Providenciales and in Grand Turk,” said Mrs. Connolly.

She added that Connolly Motors over the past year has made a great impact in the local new car/truck market and is confident that Kia is fast becoming the most popular automobile on the TCI highways.

“We continue to show the power to surprise by leading the way with these dependable Kia vehicles that come direct from the manufacturer in South Korea,” said Mrs. Connolly. “The unveiling of the new Picanto and Rio in Chile this week is a further commitment from Kia Motors that small cars are growing up to be sporty and stylish with all of the advanced features.”

“The new models are not about showing off and they are not about excess. They have powerful yet light weight engines than improve fuel efficiency and that is very important in the Turks and Caicos Islands today when gasoline prices are rising toward six dollars a gallon,” said Mrs. Connolly.

Locally produced Kia ads by Connolly Motors’ sister company Connolly Production Company to support and welcome the new Picanto and new Rio will soon begin airing on both local television networks and on radio 88.7 Jamz FM.

“We have already ordered them with all the extras and in different tropical colours,” said Mrs. Connolly before leaving for Chile.
