“We are excited to partner up with the Montreal Impact, which allows us to whole-heartedly support the MLS in Canada as the exclusive automotive sponsor of all three Canadian teams,” said Robert Staffieri, Director of Marketing for Kia Canada Inc. “To celebrate our partnership with the Montreal Impact there was no better vehicle choice than the all-new 2012 Rio 5-Door – with its athletic stance and sporty design.”
The Rio 5-Door Special Edition vehicle will be present at select 2012 Montreal Impact home games at Saputo Stadium (Stade Saputo) and will also be used at a variety of promotional events and venues throughout the surrounding Montreal area.
