SEOUL, March 25 (Korea Bizwire) — Kia Corp. is set to issue non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for the first time among South Korean car brands.
The carmaker said Thursday that it will start selling six self-produced KIA EV NFTs, developed at its Design Center using the company’s EV lineup, through NFT retail platform Klip Drops until April 1.
The designers at Kia Design Center developed digital art works for an all-electric EV6 sedan under the theme of The Present and Future of Kia EV, Concept EV9 based on the concept car of the flagship model EV9 that will be added to its EV lineup in 2023, and Niro EV that will be released as an eco-friendly SUV in the first half of this year.
Kia plans to donate all proceeds to Our Sea of East Asia Network, which conducts research on improving awareness of abandoned fishing gear that threatens marine life and protecting the marine environment.
