From designer turned president of Kia Motors
Peter Schreyer, the designer behind Kia's signature front face that adorned most models known as the Tiger Nose, is now officially the president of Kia Motors. He's the first foreign person to take duties of a big Korean company. He will continue his duties as a chief designer while being one of three presidents at the company.
