Public Officials and Residents Share Electric Vehicles... Kia 'WeBle Biz' Expands to Paju

For Officials During the Week, for Residents at Night and on Weekends

Kia is expanding its electric vehicle sharing service for local residents and public officials to Paju, Gyeonggi Province.

On the 12th, Kia announced that the 'WeBble Biz' service will be newly operated in Paju, Gyeonggi Province starting from the 15th.

WeBble Biz is an eco-friendly vehicle sharing service where companies or institutions subscribe to electric vehicles during designated working hours for business use on weekdays, and individuals can use the vehicles for commuting or weekend leisure during other times.

The WeBble Biz vehicles introduced in Paju consist of 10 Niro EVs. During weekday working hours, public officials at Paju City Hall use the vehicles for official duties, and during nights and weekends, local residents and public officials affiliated with local governments pay to use the vehicles. Reservations can be made via a mobile application (app), and vehicles can be picked up and returned without separate keys at designated parking areas.

Kia currently operates this service in local governments such as Gwangmyeong and Hwaseong in Gyeonggi Province, and Gyeongsangnam-do. The company plans to expand to more than 40 public sectors nationwide and increase the number of operating vehicles to over 500 by 2028.

A Kia representative said, "Through the operation of WeBble Biz, we expect to contribute to the activation of eco-friendly shared mobility within Paju City," adding, "We will strive to expand nationwide and take the lead in creating a domestic eco-friendly mobility ecosystem."
