 | The next generation Kia Magentis is set to make its world premiere next month at the 2010 New York International Auto Show.
The saloon exudes an athletic confidence from every angle – its raked
roofline, high and pronounced shoulder line of its sculpted flanks and extended wheelbase are complemented by flared wheelarches and a
shallow glasshouse that create a saloon with a muscular, self-assured
stance.
The striking visage of the car features a new
interpretation of Kia’s bold ‘tiger’ family face that’s edged by
piercing projector headlamps. | Following the theme of recent model revisions, new
Magentis is longer, lower and wider than before, the Kia’s coupe-like
profile is enhanced by the sweeping chrome arc that flows from A to C
pillar, a distinctive design motif that visually lowers the car further
still and enhances its cab-backwards proportions.
The all-new Kia saloon will be launched in phases around the globe and
will be seen in UK showrooms in 2011 – the model name will be confirmed
closer to launch. | | | | |
