SUNRISE, Fla. (April 22, 2026) – Kia America has named Rita Case, president and CEO of Rick Case Automotive Group, as one of only 50 dealers in the United States to earn a spot in the brand’s prestigious President’s Club. Selected from a network of nearly 800 retailers, the Kia President’s Club recognizes dealers who have achieved the highest sales performance and delivered exceptional customer satisfaction. This is the seventh year in a row that Rick Case Kia Sunrise has received President’s Club honors.

“I am very proud to represent the Kia brand. Rick Case Automotive Group not only has a Kia dealership in Sunrise, Florida, but we also have one in Atlanta, Georgia,” said Case. “It’s always an honor to receive recognition for the hard work my team and I put in every day. We take pride in our customer satisfaction, which leads to our sales success. We treat customers as our friends. This builds a longstanding relationship of trust and loyalty.”

Kia America continues its remarkable momentum as the brand achieved its eighth consecutive year of retail sales growth in the U.S. in 2025. “Last year marked significant milestones in the continued growth of the Kia brand in the United States, and on behalf of the Kia family, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Rita Case and the staff at Rick Case Kia for their unwavering dedication to exemplary sales performance and outstanding customer satisfaction,” said Seungkyu (Sean) Yoon, President and CEO, Kia North America and Kia America.

This milestone also represents the brand’s highest-ever U.S. market share, underscoring the continued consumer demand for Kia’s diverse model lineup. Adding to this momentum is the all-new 2027 Kia Telluride, featuring its first-ever available hybrid powertrain and expanded X-Pro capability, marking the next chapter for Kia’s flagship three-row SUV.

As part of Kia’s commitment to helping those in need and supporting local communities, the brand’s “Accelerate the Good” Dealer Match program contributed more than $4.7 million to non-profits nationwide in 2025. Together, Kia America and its dealers provided assistance to those affected by a wide variety of issues from childhood cancers to homelessness and hunger, to natural disaster relief and environmental causes.

Locally, South Florida Kia Dealers donated $150,000 last December to Feeding South Florida, the leading hunger-relief organization serving Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade and Monroe Counties. This donation supports Feeding South Florida’s mission to end hunger in the community by providing immediate access to nutritious food, innovative programming and advocacy efforts. The organization serves food-insecure individuals across its quad-county region, including children, seniors, veterans and single parents. For every $1 donated, four nutritious meals are provided to those in need.
