The first image of a new small SUV has been revealed by Kia Motors, due to be revealed fully in the northern summer.

The new vehicle has the space and capabilities of a traditional SUV in a compact package.

According to Kia Motors, the SUV will stand apart from rivals by matching the unique preferences and needs of the millennial generation.

“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,” says Kia’s head of styling Byung Chul Juh.

The LED headlamps feature a three-dimensional light graphic and highly technical diamond pattern at their trailing edges.

The new SUV extends Kia’s range of SUVs to satisfy customers in every region and every demographic.

The new model will go on-sale in Korea in the second half of 2019, sales in other regions to follow soon after but no exact date yet.
