Kia CUB Concept heading for Seoul Motor Show

An new Kia Concept – the Kia CUB – is heading for the 2013 Seoul Motor Show and is a compact four-door coupe with added funk.

As Kia moves more upmarket its concepts become more convincing.

Recently, we’ve had the Kia GT – a high-end, powerful swoopy coupe that looks like it’s heading for production – and the Kia Provo which caused consternation in Northern Ireland but looks equally likely to head in to production as the Kia take on the MINI Countryman or Nissan Juke.

Now, just a few weeks after the Provo got an outing at Geneva, Kia are teasing a new concept for the Seoul Motor Show – the Kia CUB.

Kia aren’t telling us much about the CUB except it’s a small – under four metres long – compact four-door coupe concept that will appeal to ‘ trend-setting urban dwellers’. Apparently.

Kia call the CUB’s face ‘cheerful’ with ‘daring character’ and headlights that have two point LED lights (like those on the Quoris) although what underpins the CUB – or what powers it – is left for us to guess ahead of its Seoul debut this week.

Will the CUB spawn a production model? Seems likely.
