It says the concept of a forthcoming all-new model will feature a ‘dramatic glass-roof treatment and will provide astounding spaciousness in a compact package’.
The concept is expected to be called Kia YN and is smaller than a Cee’d, but based on the same platform as the upcoming Soul.
The mini MPV market segment is occupied by supermini platform based cars such as Vauxhall/Opel’s Meriva and Nissan Note.
The Geneva car is the first Kia to be designed from conception by Peter Schreyer, who formerly worked as a designer for Audi.
