AN EXHILIRATING PROPOSITION Conceived and engineered for long-distance driving, the SPORTSPACE concept is the definitive answer to fast and efficient travel with maximum comfort and minimal stress. It is a reinvention of the grand tourer for the modern age, in the best tradition of the weekend getaway. KIA HALLMARKS. NEW DESIGN BENCHMARKS The SPORTSPACE is unmistakeably a Kia – thanks to its signature ‘tiger nose’ grille, finely judged proportions and simple, clean surfaces. The dynamic shape of its exteriors is set to make a bold impact, underlined by its emphatic road presence. Step inside and the superior level of comfort throughout the cabin is equally impressive. And there’s a substantial amount of space for cargo, for all the practicality required for trips away in this grand tourer. STYLE & FUNCTIONALITY – WITHOUT COMPROMISE Designed at Kia’s Frankfurt design studio, under the direction of Gregory Guillaume, Chief Designer Europe, the SPORTSPACE sets new standards in both aesthetic design and practical everyday details. The car is born out of a commitment to provide stylish and exciting transportation for four. With active people in mind who like to head off on road trips at the weekend without having to compromise in terms of cargo space, style and comfort. Also thrown into the mix are the performance, sustainability and economy that Kia has built its reputation on. COMFORT AND SPORTINESS “We set out to design a car that is a totally new breed of grand tourer – one for active people who need reasonable cargo space on the weekend, but don’t want to compromise moving around in style, comfort and with an element of sportiness,” explains Gregory Guillaume, Chief Designer Europe

KIA ONTHULT NOVO STUDIEMODEL OP DE SEOUL MOTORSHOW 2 april 2015 + VERGROOT Kia Motors heeft vandaag op de Seoul Motor Show 2015 zijn nieuwste studiemodel onthuld: de Kia Novo. De Kia Novo geeft de richting aan van het design van de volgende generatie compacte auto’s van het merk. ‘Novo’ – verfrissend, verjongend en innoverend De Kia Novo ontleent zijn naam aan het Latijnse ‘novatus’ (vernieuwd of opgefrist). Het interieur van de Novo zorgt voor een kalmerende omgeving, waarin de bestuurder tot rust kan komen. De Novo werd ontworpen in Kia’s supermoderne designcentrum van Namyang in Korea, met als basis een speciaal aangepaste versie van het platform van de Cerato (Forte). Hij schittert met een door een coupé geïnspireerd silhouet en het onmiskenbare Kia-design. Het gladde, geometrische design van de auto wordt vermengd met een serie scherpe lijnen en vormen van de carrosserie, die ervoor zorgen dat de auto aerodynamisch zeer efficiënt is. Het front van de Novo toont de nieuwste interpretatie van de typische ‘tiger nose’ grille van Kia, die nu iets breder en dieper is. Op de bestuurder gericht interieur met minimalistische designvormen Het minimalistische interieur is vooral op de bestuurder gericht en zorgt voor zo weinig mogelijk afleiding en rust tijdens het rijden. Alle inzittenden profiteren van genoeg ruimte, een resultaat van de lange carrosserie van de auto. Het langgerekte en brede dashboard is naar de bestuurder toe gebogen en de scherpe lijnen ervan worden verfraaid door het gebruik van leder, stiksels en aluminium accenten. De instrumentenkoepel geeft relevante informatie via een compact driedimensionaal hologram display, terwijl een ‘blind control’ touchpad naast het stuurwiel de bestuurder in staat stelt de auto te bedienen zonder zijn of haar ogen van de weg te halen. Het touchpad heeft ook een vingerafdrukscanner, waardoor instellingen automatisch ingeschakeld kunnen worden. 1.6 liter T-GDI krachtbron met nieuwe zeventraps DCT De Novo wordt aangedreven door de nieuwste high-tech aandrijflijn van Kia, een 1.6 liter ‘Kappa’ turbo-benzinemotor met directe injectie (T-GDI). Deze is gekoppeld aan de zeventraps DCT van het merk en drijft de voorwielen aan. Het resultaat bestaat uit sportieve prestaties en een indrukwekkende brandstofbesparing. De Kia Novo concept is uitgerust met innovatieve adaptieve en holle wielen, met een verzonken middensectie tussen de twee punten die contact maken met de weg. Deze is bedoeld om het rubber te koelen en overvloedig water te kunnen afvoeren, om meer grip te bieden. De unieke 20-inch banden hebben twee kleine banen op de buitenste hoeken, die contact met het wegoppervlak maken. Dat zorgt voor een lagere rolweerstand en minder geluid, terwijl ze tegelijkertijd een hoog gripniveau in de bocht hebben. De Novo concept geeft een kijkje in de plannen van Kia met betrekking tot de toekomstige line-up van compacte auto’s. Er bestaan momenteel geen plannen om de Kia Novo-concept in productie te nemen.
