Abstract/Summary

Korean car brand Kia’s turbo design acceleration under auto ace Peter Schreyer

Wallpaper* went to Kia’s Namyang Design Centre in South Korea to speak to the director of the Kia Styling Group, Sae-Young Song about Schreyer’s influence, Korean style and the brand’s premium aspirations…

But since the arrival of ex-Audi designer Peter Schreyer in 2006, the marque has been transformed – in a similar way to fellow Korean brands LG and Samsung – and sales have rocketed, so much so that Hyundai-Kia is now the fourth biggest car group in the world.
