Rusty Wallace Kia of Knoxville is one of several dealerships owned by NASCAR legend Rusty Wallace. Rusty enjoyed a nearly forty-year racing career, where he built a reputation for his aggressive racing style, outgoing personality, and zest for life. His passion for racing is undeniable and, paired with his work ethic, led to incredible success throughout his career.
He won 55 Cup Series races, with sixteen consecutive wins as the third-longest streak in history. His other titles include being named the 1984 Rookie of the Year and a 1989 NASCAR Cup Series Championship. He also won the International Race of Champions, making history as the first and only driver to win three of the four events in the series.
Following his nearly 20,000-lap career, Rusty focused his passion for automobiles beyond the track. He launched the Rusty Wallace Automotive Group, opening Rusty Wallace Kia of Knoxville and many others to serve drivers throughout eastern Tennessee and beyond. Today, we are honored to continue Rusty’s legacy and share his passion and commitment to excellence by treating our customers to an extraordinary and unique dealership experience.
Kia is one of the fastest-growing automotive brands in the world. The company started producing bicycle parts and steel tubing in the 1940s, later producing motorcycles for Honda in the 1950s and automobiles for Mazda throughout the 1960s and 1970s. Kia eventually debuted its lineup, setting the stage for what would become the fifth-largest automaker worldwide.
Over the years, Kia has built a solid reputation for listening attentively and responding to drivers’ unique needs. We see this firsthand in award-winning SUVs like the Telluride, potent powerhouses like the K5, and versatile nameplates like the Sportage, Niro, and Seltos. Every model offers tangible value, sophisticated styling, and advanced technologies that deliver a transformative and exciting experience wherever the road leads. It’s an experience everyone deserves and is guaranteed when you shop with us.
