SEOUL: South Korea’s Kia Corp said on Thursday that it aims to sell 1 million electric vehicles (EVs) by 2030, lowering its earlier target by about 20% from 1.26 million announced last year, reflecting weaker EV demand and the impact of the US scrapping EV subsidies last year.

The automaker also trimmed its total vehicle sales goal, targeting 4.13 million vehicles by 2030, down from an earlier target of 4.19 million units.

Kia also said it plans to deploy Atlas humanoid robots, developed by Boston Dynamics, at its own Georgia factory starting 2029, according to its presentation slides for

 investors.
