Kia Lucky Motor Corporation (KLMC) has revealed the dates and locations for the premier of its electric vehicle, the Kia Niro EV, and the luxury sedan, the Kia Stinger, that was teased by the company a day earlier on social media.
According to a new social media post, the company will reveal its new cars, Niro EV and Stinger, on the following dates and locations:

It is pertinent to mention that Kia Lucky Motor Corporation has been teasing these vehicles for some time now. In 2020, a wrapped Kia Stinger and Kia Niro were seen as among the convoy of four cars that drove across Pakistan.
These vehicles stopped at different locations throughout the country and we were able to get some pictures while they were packed at Lucky One Mall in Karachi.
