(SEOUL) May 14, 2019 – Kia Motors has today revealed the first image of its new small #suv. Due to be revealed fully in the summer, the new vehicle possesses the space and capabilities of a traditional #suv in a compact package.
With a modern and urbane design, inspired by the 2019 Kia SP Signature #concept, the #suv will stand apart from rivals by matching the unique preferences and needs of the millennial generation. The robust design character of a traditional #suv coexists with sophisticated exterior design details, such as its long hood, a strong, sophisticated character line on the front bumper, and sharp lines pressed into the bodywork. Its strong shoulder line, matched with a glasshouse which tapers towards the rear of the car, as well as rear bumper with a metallic muffler effect, lends the compact #suv an air of understated sportiness.
The new compact #suv brings a sense of luxury to its exterior design with LED headlamps which extend over the radiator grille. The lamps feature a three-dimensional light graphic and a highly technical diamond pattern at their trailing edges. The design is also echoed in the rear LED lamps.
Byung Chul Juh, Head of Kia Styling at Kia Motors Corporation, comments: “We have created a car which stands out everywhere, from the city to the countryside. Its robust yet sporty design will be matched by a wide range of features and technologies that are universally suited to younger buyers in markets around the world. Our new small #suv is a proposition that no other car in its class will match.”
By adding a new global small #suv to its line-up, Kia Motors is extending its range of SUVs to fulfill the needs of customers in every region.
Kia’s first global small #suv, the new model will go on-sale in Korea in the second half of 2019, with sales in other regions to follow soon after.
