Kia
Kia Motors America (KMA) today reported sales in excess of 50,000 units for the 2nd straight month, as the all-new 2014 Cadenza reached the 1,000 unit mark for the first time following the launch of the flagship sedan's national marketing campaign. With 50,536 total vehicles sold, the U.S.-built* Optima midsize sedan was the brand's best seller for the 19th consecutive month, and together with the Sorento CUV - also built in West Point, Georgia - accounted for more than 40 percent of Kia's June sales. The Soul urban passenger vehicle also recorded strong monthly sales of 11,287 units.
Kia is in the midst of launching seven all-new or significantly redesigned vehicles this calendar year, including the 2014 Sorento CUV and Cadenza and Forte sedans on sale now. Later this year, all-new versions of the Soul, Forte Koup and Forte 5-door, as well as a refreshed Optima midsize sedan, are scheduled to arrive in showrooms. Each of these new products continues Kia's commitment to advancing value to new levels of sophistication by combining world-class design with cutting-edge technologies, premium amenities and affordable pricing.
Kia: 1 of the World's Fastest Moving Global Automotive Brands Kia Motors America is one of only 3 auto brands to increase U.S. sales in each of the past four years, and in 2012 the company surpassed the 500,000 unit mark for the 1st time. With a full line of fun-to-drive cars and CUVs, Kia is advancing value to new levels of sophistication by combining European-influenced styling - under the guidance of chief design officer Peter Schreyer - with cutting-edge technologies, premium amenities, affordable pricing and the lowest cost of ownership in the industry. Kia recently joined the exclusive ranks of Interbrand's "Top 100 Best Global Brands," and is poised to continue its momentum with 7 all-new or significantly redesigned vehicles scheduled to arrive in showrooms in 2013. Over the past decade Kia Motors has invested more than $1.4 billion in the U.S., including the company's 1st U.S. assembly plant in West Point, Georgia - Kia Motors Manufacturing Georgia - which is responsible for the creation of more than 11,000 plant and supplier jobs.
The success of the U.S.-built* Optima and Sorento in two of the industry's largest segments has fueled Kia's rapid growth and is complemented by Kia's comprehensive lineup which includes the Cadenza flagship sedan, Soul urban passenger vehicle, Sportage compact CUV, Optima Hybrid, the Forte sedan, 5-door and Koup compacts, Rio and Rio 5-door sub-compacts and the Sedona minivan.

I really enjoy the sales call Toyota/Lexus posts. If you read the IS launch was insane.

Also I had no idea the Rav-4 was selling that well. Camry had its best month and yes incentives helped. Of course its marketing speak but everyone does it

And we’ll roll out three all-new or significantly updated models between now and the end of the year to help keep the momentum going, beginning with Corolla this fall.
Thanks again for joining us today and now I’d like to turn this over to Steve for a look at Lexus.
Lexus Vice President of Sales Steve Hearne:
Thank you Bill.
I’ll get to the June breakout for Lexus in a moment…but the big news for us in June was the launch of the all-new IS lineup, which went on sale Friday.
The marketing launch actually started in mid-June, with a heavy emphasis on the new design, driving dynamics and technology advancements of the IS.
It seems to have made a connection with customers, as we sold more than 500 in just three days
Many of those customers came looking for the new IS F Sport with its bold design and sporty performance.
It helped give us to the best non-holiday weekend for Lexus in six years.
Pushed Lexus sales above 21,000 for the second straight month
Third time in last four month
Total June sales of 21,355
Up 6.7 percent on straight volume basis
YTD, sales up about 10 percent
At nearly 120,000 vehicles
The two other new cars in our line-up – the ES and LS – posted strong gains in June and both models
continue to show the biggest increases in their respective luxury segments.
ES
Up 50 percent in June
Sales of more than 33,000 thru first six months
Up 83 percent for the year
LS
sales up 45 percent for the month
Up 73 percent for the first half
LS also received the highest score among all models in J.D. Power’s IQS – for the sixth year in a row.
The SUV side of our business
RX continues to be the best-selling vehicle in our lineup
Sales of more than 8,600 in June
Year to date sales up 4 percent
Continues to lead luxury SUV segment
GX also had a good month
Saw sales climb 9 percent for the month
Lexus Certified Pre-Owned
Four consecutive record-setting month
We expect the IS fireworks to continue in July
All IS models currently at dealerships, including F SPORT version
Availability will improve throughout the month
Combined with ES and LS, that will give us three of the hottest models in the growing luxury sedan market.
Thank you very much for joining us today and now I’d like to open up the call for questions.

500 ISs in a weekend...can't wait to see what the month of July looks like 
Not surprised to hear of Toyota's success with the Rav4. Dealers are still having trouble getting an adequate supply and most are only getting 6-7 in at a time, and selling them within a week or two. They should do very well once supply meets demand.

Yeah, it is doing very well. Lower price point vs. the Germans, standard V6, fwd. or awd. etc. I also like their easy approach to options, regular or tech package. With the Germans prices go up fast when you start adding options.

I echo your point about the Mazda 6
I would really like to see an analysis of what is going on regarding customer perception on Mazda
One thing they keep doing that confounds me is spending marketing dollarson branding that few people understand
If you asked any one on the street what the f sky activ means you would get a bunch of blank stares
I had to wiki it and all I get is they use higher compression than (what I don't know)
I remember when they had the millennia they were harping on some unexplained engine tech then too
If some one there had any sense, they woul sell a turbo miata with close to 300 hp and it would sell like crazy
