Kia Motors To Aid in Job Market Crisis



Yesterday the first batch of equipment arrived at the new location for Kia Motors production plant in Georgia. Kia is South Korea's second largest automaker and is estimated to bring about 2,500 new jobs.

This new $1.2 billion facility is their first manufacturing plant in the U.S. The new facility is expected to produce 300,000 vehicles per year and rumor has it about six auto suppliers are going to setup nearby which will result in 2,000 more additional jobs.

It is good that some relief is coming to the state of Georgia because they are the #2 state in the union that has report the highest amount of jobs lost within the last year. Just about 304,536 Georgia residents are out of work!

The picture is the concept for the new Kia Koup thats going to be released relatively soon. Looks very similar to the Honda Civic Coupe....just saying
