InsideLineVideo youtubed this vid a while back, maybe most of you saw it, but it too, I didn't see it posted here, so I will do it right now.

The pic of the concept:

About the only Kia I think that looks OK among their concepts. To me, if they can manage to keep MOST of the features that the concept had, I think this will have some potentials. Though, it maybe just me.

Sorry to bump this thread(It got buried), but I found an old article in the web about the concept with tons of pictures, I thought I would share. I am sure most of you seen them, but.....

Not a fan of small car, but I think this is interesting. It may be derivative if you can think of some other cars(I am not sure which cars that this copies), but since Kia confirmed that they will be building it for 2009 model year, I wonder if the American car buyers will be buying this. It's well.... Differnent, in my opinion, and to me, it is the best looking Kia of all the crappy concept they have made. The spy vid shows that the overall shape hasn't changed, but I pray to god that they don't screw it up like Hyundai did with their Genesis trash. I first thought this was SUV, but, since, according to the spy vid, it is slightly taller and bigger than Mini Cooper, I guess this will compete with the likes of Scion xB, or Honda Element, depending on what the price will be.

Just wanted to share. Some of the comments on that autoblog were funny.
