It's somewhat obvious that Vaccar has become quite accustomed​ with the South Korean powerhouse known as Hyundai Motor Group – most notably our work with Hyundai Motor America and concept vehicles for events such as the SEMA Show – however, we've oddly not touched the related platforms of Kia Motors.

Consider it a sign of sorts, but as of September 2020, Vaccar has started stocking and distributing aftermarket performance and restyling accessories for newer Kia models, including the Stinger, K5 and Telluride - with more to come in the weeks that follow.  There are also some significant project discussion in the works, but for now we look forward to welcoming some new motoring friends to our family.

With just about 1 month until SEMA Show on the calendar, Vaccar will transform an all-new Hyundai Kona into their latest concept creation.  Here, we get a first look at what the platform looks like off the assembly line, and before customization.  Since restyling ideas and performance upgrades are estimated up to half of a year in advance of taking delivery of the most OEM project cars, the Vaccar team likes to spend time with the vehicle as if it were their own.  Aaron Vaccar says, "Once we get the real car actually in our hands, I want to make sure our aftermarket changes make sense - functionally and stylistically."

For 2018, Vaccar welcomes show-goers to their club; “The Club Kona.” This playful guise is actually the themeing around a collaborative new project vehicle that ties in the Vaccar Co., Winner International (makers of The Club), and Hyundai Motor America with their all-new 2018 Kona. The Club Kona, which has it's own postcards, stickers and t-shirts (free to win and available to purchase) is Vaccar's own secret (and fictitious) Hawaiian tiki-club of sorts. The Vaccar Kona concept vehicle will debut Oct. 30-Nov 2 in Las Vegas for SEMA Show at The Club booth #12417, including a special meet & greet Thursday from 2-4pm.

The Club Kona does have it's own website, which will include weekly uploads to showcase the latest development of the Vaccar Kona concept, leading up to it's unveiling; additional project details, partner news, media and more will also be viewable at www.vaccar.co/clubkona.
