In a bold new step for Saudi Arabia's most exciting and innovative automotive partnership, NMC-Kia, the National Motor Company (NMC) launched the ground-breaking all-new Kia Sportage in Jeddah on Wednesday May 25th, 2022. The 2023 Kia Sportage, codenamed NQ5e, benefits from a comprehensive redesign that is modern and futuristic. The 5th generation model challenges design norms and moves the Sportage identity to the next level, while letting the customer feel an exciting new era of drive experience, infused with latest cutting-edge technology and features for drivers' convenience. Hassan Shamrani, CEO of the National Marketing Company (NMC), said: "This is an historic day for NMC and for our innovative and exciting partnership with one of the world's leading car brands.
