Inside, the new Kia SUV will come with a number of first-in-class features, along with a bunch of features and connectivity equipment. This includes a large touchscreen infotainment system and a fully-digital instrument cluster.

Kia will also borrow a number of components from its cousin, the Hyundai Creta. This includes minor design cues, body panels and other interior finishes as well. The Kia SUV is expected to come powered by two engine options: one petrol and one diesel, although exact power figures are yet to be officially released. Both engines however will come with a mix of manual and automatic gearbox options.

Kia recently announced the start of trial production of the Kia SP SUV. The new SUV is based on the concept, first showcased at the 2018 Auto Expo. Kia is also yet to officially name the new SUV, which might be called either the Trailster or Tusker.

We recently visited the Kia Motor India plant, ahead of the trial production to see the scale of the entire facility. The Kia plant is situated in Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh — here are more details of the Kia Motor India facility.

Thoughts On The Kia SP SUV Spied Testing

The Kia SP SUV will be the first product from the Korean carmaker in the Indian market. Kia will hope replicate the same success as Hyundai in India. The new Kia SUV is expected to go on sale in India sometime in September 2019 and will rival the likes of the Tata Harrier, Mahindra XUV500 and the Hyundai Creta.
