Kia Reveals Its Crossover Concept Frankfurt Entry

Automakers excel at revealing tantalizing, futuristic concept car designs, a whole lot of which we'll get to see at the upcoming Frankfurt Auto Show in September. The only trouble is that most of these designs never make it to reality. Even when they do, they are watered down to the extent that they no longer resemble the beautiful concept designs which we originally took a liking to.

Kia's upcoming concept crossover is going to fall into that category." Playful but gutsy, sturdy yet impish - Kia's dramatic new European concept...hints at a possible future B-segment contender ready to take on the urban environment with style and tenacity, says Kia.

Then again, at the end of the PR it goes on to say this. "Although there are no current plans for production the vehicle's unveiling in Frankfurt will be used to gauge potential customer response for future showroom models"

We can be certain the response to this, yet unnamed concept car, is going to be positive. The black, with yellow highlighting and the simple, yet futuristic interior look delicious. Yet, we know as soon as we see it that even if the car does become a reality in the future, it will look nothing like this.

Never-the-less, with this car Kia wants to tell us that it is interested in bringing to the market, high volume compact cars to take on the likes of the Nissan Juke and Buick Encore.
