Ship carrying Hyundai, Kia cars taken by Somali pirates: company

A British-flagged ship carrying 2,300 cars made by Hyundai Motor Co. and Kia Motors Corp. has been taken by pirates off the coast of Somalia, a company source said Sunday, according to Yonhap News.
The Hyundai-Kia Automotive Group source said the 13,000-ton Asian Glory owned by Zodiac Shipping was captured by pirates late Friday about 1,000 kilometers east of the African nation.

The executive, who declined to be identified, said most of the cars were compacts and subcompacts that were headed for Saudi Arabia after leaving the South Korean port of Ulsan
