Kia Kue concept @ NAIAS 2007



Kia Kue concept arrives in Detroit

Kia today unveiled the all-new Kia Kue crossover concept vehicle at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. The Kia Kue "employs a different approach to the crossover utility vehicle segment by taking elements of what makes a CUV to a new level, namely performance," the company said. "Kue is designed first and foremost as a driver’s vehicle. While possessing SUV characteristics and capabilities, the Kia Kue focuses more on giving the driver an exhilarating driving experience on the way to the home improvement center than on how much it can haul."

Fitted with a 400-horsepower, DOHC, supercharged 4.6-liter V8 that twists out 400 lb-ft of torque, Kue aims to be a true performance crossover. The Kia Kue has a monocoque platform that sits on 22-inch wheels with a wheelbase of more than 114 inches, packaged in an overall length of 186 inches. Though purely a concept, the Kia Kue does hint at future styling directions for the company.

"We’ve instilled confidence and integrity in our consumer base with vehicles that provide value, quality and safety," said Len Hunt, executive vice president and COO of KMA. "Kue embodies the next phase of our brand evolution, which will instill pride and passion in our customers through great design."

Re: Kia Kue concept @ NAIAS 2007

A little too futuristic for me...

Though I really like the silver/black/red colour combo!

The exterior is nice. KIA is really advancing on design lately.
