Kia Motors Corporation appoints new President
Mr. Lee brings a wealth of international experience to his new role and will lead Kia’s corporate planning, marketing and overseas business operations. Prior to heading Kia’s International Business Division, Mr. Lee served as President of Kia Motors Europe and President and CEO of Dongfeng Yueda Kia, the company’s joint venture in China.
Kia Motors Corporation is confident that Mr. Lee is well suited to continue Kia’s remarkable growth based on his extensive experience in the automotive industry, having worked within the Hyundai-Kia Automotive Group since 1977.
As Vice-President and COO, Mr. Lee developed effective countermeasures in response to high oil prices and international economic fluctuations. He also contributed to securing Kia’s presence in overseas markets by expanding the supply of high-demand models to various markets to further satisfy customer experiences and strengthen dealer networks.
Hyoung-Keun (Hank) Lee takes over the position from Euisun Chung who was recently appointed to Vice Chairman of Hyundai Motor. During Mr. Chung’s tenure as President of Kia Motors, the Hyundai-Kia Automotive Group grew to be one of the world’s top five automakers. Kia Motors posted record first-half profits in 2009 and sales of Kia vehicles continue to outpace competitors as it gains market share in many countries around the world.
