Why Kia Suspended the Booking

After the resumption, the costs of zshipment and raw material started to rise and reached their record-highs. The industry is still facing the chip shortage and operational cost issues. And then, the dollar rate entered the equation and broke the auto industry’s back.

Hencde, Kia and other car companies stopped the production and suspended the bookings due to this unstable situation.
