I keep seeing this new KIA logo, but all I see is:

KLA

Please tell me I'm not the only one, I liked the old one but the new one makes me crazy with that slanted A

You're crazy, I dig the new one. I think it's good for their brand.

I’m in the no camp. Unless they are purposefully trying to obfuscate Kia based on current negative perceptions. If the intent is promotion then no.

Maybe I need to adjust the resolution on my monitor.

That says VAGINA

I alway see Killed In Action when I see the old one so the new one keeps me from reading the same. Both are terrible.

I see two cyrillic letters myself.


I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. -Ecclesiastes 9:11

...But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by Him shall glory, but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped. - Psalm 63:11 [excerpted]

When I look at it I see a "K" and a backwards "N".

We have three Kia's in our family. Like the cars but hate the new logo.

Hmmph. I thought it read "bacon." Maybe it's just me.

I see KIA just fine, but I keep up to date on a lot of car news.

Have seen some reports of people mistaking it as KM somehow.

I do think it could have been better implemented, and it's noticeably larger on the cars I've seen on the road, as compared to the old logo.

I bought a 2022 Telluride SX-Prestige. The new logo is terrific...just this morning, the owner of my local gun store walked out with me and asked about the logo and the vehicle.

It's well-overdue and sure, it's a bit overstylized but it also fits their new style perfectly. My wife is a professional designer and agreed 100% that given a choice, she'd choose the new one every time.

Some folks have opined that a horizontal slash in the A would make it that much better. I'd tend to agree but also guess that was considered and they chose this instead.

My brain sees it as KN

I had to google the Kia logo to see what it meant then I found it was KIA

When this mess first started, there was a run on the JDM logo as well as the Stinger emblems. I wonder why?
