Kia Motors America

To support the release of the Niro — Kia’s first-ever hybrid crossover — NPM Creative produced Brand Soundscapes that focused on the craft behind the vehicle by featuring voices from the vehicle’s design and strategy teams.

After placement in just two episodes of NPR’s Hidden Brain podcast, listener surveys revealed more positive perceptions of Kia’s design, versatility and environmental consciousness — all priority brand messages. Most critically, listeners were more likely to consider Kia the next time they were car shopping.

"Brand Soundscapes are minimally disruptive and highly interesting. NPR was the right environment, it’s a fantastic audience, and I couldn’t have asked for something better in terms of the Soundscapes platform."
