POP

All-electric. Totally eclectic.Introduced at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show, the all-electric concept vehicle POP offers a possible glimpse into the future of the automobile—or perhaps just into the future of transportation. 

 

Pop runs on compact lithium polymer gel batteries, has a flowing front seat, a unique transparent organic LED panel, and an illuminated grille, and requires a little more than three yards of parking space. 

 

 

 

Ready for the future. Whenever the future’s ready for it.

This chrome-colored three-seater made its North American debut in 2012 at the Los Angeles Auto Show. It was created by Kia’s European Design Center in Frankfurt. And it is another example of how Kia is pushing forward the possibilities of green cars around the world.
