SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 9, 2026 – Kia America says it finished 2025 with its highest-ever annual sales total, reaching 852,155 units and passing the 800,000 mark for the first time. The company reports the result is a 7 percent increase over its previous record set in 2024, making this the third straight year it has posted an all-time annual record. For shoppers, the headline isn’t just “big number” energy: Kia is signaling that everyday favorites like Sportage, Telluride, and Carnival are still pulling demand, while electrified models are growing fast in the mix.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – January 9, 2026 – BMW of North America has released its full-year 2025 U.S. sales results for both BMW and MINI, and the headline is a familiar one: another record year for BMW, plus solid growth for MINI powered by a refreshed lineup. The numbers matter if you’re shopping (or just watching the market) because they hint at what Americans actually want right now—more light trucks and flexible electrified options, even as pure EV demand softens. The report also clarifies that BMW’s “full year 2025” sales window ran from January 3, 2025 to January 2, 2026, following the U.S. auto industry sales release schedule.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 19, 2025 – Toyota has launched the all-new, 6th generation RAV4 in Japan as a new-generation SUV built around the idea that “Life is an Adventure,” with a clear message: one model should fit many kinds of lives. Developed around “Diversification, Electrification, and Intelligence,” the new RAV4 keeps the nameplate’s solid, powerful look while leaning harder into choice, electrified performance, and software-driven comfort.

Three Personalities, One RAV4

If you’ve ever loved the RAV4 concept but wished it came with a clearer “this is me” vibe, Toyota is answering with three distinct styles. The lineup includes the sophisticatedly styled Z, the Adventure model designed to handle off-road driving, and the GR SPORT (scheduled for release within fiscal 2025, ending March 2026), which is focused on driving performance.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 10, 2025 – Kia’s all-new Seltos has just made its global debut – and this second-generation subcompact SUV is clearly designed for people who want to feel like the main character, whether they’re commuting, weekending, or heading off on a long road trip.

A Small SUV That Thinks Like a Big One

The new Kia Seltos arrives as a bold evolution of one of Kia’s most successful global models. It has been re-engineered to feel more confident on the road and more intuitive to live with every day, blending authentic SUV presence with clever packaging and tech that actually makes daily life easier.

Kia calls the launch theme “The Protagonist,” and it fits: the Seltos is positioned as the car for people writing their own story – from young professionals who bounce between city streets and spontaneous getaways, to small families who want practicality without sacrificing style.

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – December 10, 2025 – In a world where city life feels permanently set to fast-forward, the LEPAS L8 Exquisite Space leans hard in the opposite direction, transforming the car interior into a calming emotional sanctuary where Elegant Life means breathing out, slowing down and genuinely enjoying the moment.

A Private Cinema on Wheels for Your “Me-Time”

The idea behind the LEPAS L8 Exquisite Space is simple and very 2025: your car shouldn’t just move you from A to B, it should move your mood too. With a few small rituals, the cabin becomes your own private cinema and cocoon. Recline the front seats fully backward, connect the projector ecosystem accessories and sync with the in-car entertainment system, and suddenly the outside world fades.
