Chicago Auto Show: Kia Ray Plug-In Hybrid Concept - Wheels Blog - NYTimes.com


Not Bad at All

Built on the Kia Forte platform and designed at Kia’s studio in California, the front-wheel-drive concept is powered by a direct-injection 1.4-liter engine and a 78 kilowatt electric motor. It also utilizes a continuously variable transmission.

White leather, wood flooring and “mocha wool” carpeting decorate the airy interior. Coated glass keeps the interior cool, and roof-top photovoltaic cells help to power the climate control system.

That's actually really cool. Too bad it's just a prototype, though. If it was on the market I might consider one.

Pretty sweet. Except for that big 'ol Kia logo on the front. Too bad they could try something a little more subtle for branding.
Chevy does the same thing. Big-ass bow tie on the front of a small car like an Aveo totally ruins the smigeon of styling they might of had otherwise.

Agreed!
