37. It depends on the model. Some KIAs are made in the USA.

The Soul, however, is made in South Korea. Even its name is based on Seoul, the capital of that country.

They are sold, however, by individual dealerships here in the United States, businesses that employ American workers.

So, which Chevy models have a 5-year/60,000 mile overall warranty and a 10-year/100,000 mile powertrain warranty? That's important to me. In fact, which US-made cars have warranties like that? I couldn't find any when I was car shopping.
