First Schreyer Kia set for Geneva
Kia will show the first car to be completely designed by the firm’s design boss Peter Schreyer at the Geneva show.
The concept, likely to be called Kia YN, is the first car that ex-Audi designer Schreyer has worked on from scratch, and is said to be unlike any other Kia to date.
It is very close to the production car, which is due towards the end of this year. The design uses current Kia themes, such as the “tiger” grille, but goes some way to moving the brand further upmarket.
“This car will enable people to see what’s happening with the brand,” said a Kia source.
The interior, especially, is described as surprising by sources that have seen the car, with higher-quality materials and a more premium feel.
Smaller than a Cee’d, the Kia YN is based on the same platform as the Kia Soul and is designed to compete with the likes of the Vauxhall Meriva. It features a full-length glass roof and what Kia describes as “astounding spaciousness in a compact package.”
The production YN (no name has been confirmed for the real thing) will go on sale in the UK early next year, before February.

Kia Nº 3 Concept Car
All-new, the Kia Nº 3 Concept Car redefines the small MPV genre by creating a beautiful car that is also fun-to-drive. The concept features a unique extended windscreen and panorama glass roof with a diagonal supporting bar, an automatic sun visor and the new ‘face of Kia’ displays the front grille, head lamps and brand logo in a new constellation. The 4045 mm long concept is finished in matt Titanium Grey with contrasting gloss-white accents.
Spy shots: Kia planning new compact MPV based on No 3 concept car
While Kia is presenting its new No 3 mini MPV concept at the Geneva Motor Show this week, the production version of this concept has been spotted testing in the colds of Northern Sweden. Prototypes for the vehicle were first sighted late last year and were thought to be a new MPV variant of the Kia Cee’d hatchback.
We can now confirm that the car will be based on the same platform as the Kia Soul, which means it will likely be available with a family of compact petrol and diesel powertrains ranging from 1.6 to 2.0L in size. Power outputs will range from about 126hp (94kW) to 142hp (106kW). There could even be a mild hybrid model added to the lineup further down the track.
Competition for the new Kia MPV will likely come primarily in the form of the Volkswagen Golf Plus, as well as the Opel Meriva and Renault Modus – the latter vehicle was even seen testing alongside the Kia prototype.
Some of the details include a glass panoramic roof, sporty alloy wheels, and Kia’s new H-pattern grille. First sales should start in Europe at the end of the year, which means the latest Kia MPV will be a 2010 model.
Isto vem substituir o Kia Rio?
É um modelo novo para concorrer com o o C3 Picasso, Meriva, Modus...
Mas para isso, a Kia já tem o Soul.
