In June 2024, Thaco Auto produced and brought the painted body kits and components of the Kia New Carnival model to the Indian market for production and testing. The product meets the requirements of technology, standards, and quality, and is highly appreciated by Kia India partner. The body kits and components of the Kia New Carnival are manufactured at the leading automobile assembly and production center in Southeast Asia. With modern technology lines and equipment transferred from Kia Group (Korea), Thaco Kia products meet Kia's strict global technical standards. In particular, the color painting line uses advanced "wet on wet" painting technology with an automatic paint supply system, helping the body paint surface to be sturdy, increasing the ability to resist scratches and acid corrosion during use. The body structure is strictly calculated and tested using a body accuracy testing system (3D CMM).

Since 2012, the Thaco Kia factory has been selected by Kia Group as a training, supervision and technical support unit, consulting on production technology processes for many Kia brand CKD assembly enterprises in Ecuador, Pakistan, Myanmar, India, Uzbekistan... The entire shipment of painted car bodies and Kia New Carnival car components exported directly to India this time from Chu Lai port took place safely and quickly. The cooperation of Chu Lai port with international container shipping line RCL to exploit additional international shipping routes, connecting directly to Chennai - Kolkata - Kattupalli ports (India) has created convenience in importing and exporting goods, reducing time and costs, increasing the competitiveness of Thaco Auto products in the Indian market. In recent years, Thaco Auto has continuously expanded its market, exporting vehicles and spare parts to many countries such as the Philippines, Thailand, Myanmar, Kazakhstan, India, etc. Currently, Thaco Auto continues to invest, research technology transfer, upgrade technological lines towards automation and digital management to improve production capacity and product quality; at the same time, research quality standards of potential markets, opening up opportunities for extensive cooperation with international partners. In particular, in the new development stage, Thaco Auto focuses on R&D activities, mastering the entire production process from design to product development to organize the production of trucks and buses under the Thaco brand, becoming a real manufacturer.
