We love our brands and learning all about what they do! Have you heard about Kia’s most recent project? The company teamed up with Sea Turtle Inc. to help baby sea turtles find their way home.

Kia created the first sea turtle rescue vehicle! The company took the Kia Sportage X-Pro to a whole new level! Kia added night vision cameras and red LED spotlights. The red spotlights allow the baby sea turtles to be released at night! The vehicle was also equipped with sand-ready tires, a roof rack and a first-aid kit. Another customization was an algae bar. This was added to provide food for the rehabilitated sea turtles while on their way back home. The Sportage was also designed to safely transport the sea turtle egg nests to their protected area.

This amazing project was a piece of Kia’s Accelerate the Good Program! The Accelerate the Good Program has worked to assist front-line workers and those affected by COVID-19, natural disasters, and more. We will keep updated on new project information and any new additions to this program!
