I'm surprised at this.  Everyone has a styling opinion...for me, this is a styling step backwards towards the derivative....it's just a rip-off of the Aston77 front end.  I've liked the previous batch of Kias.

And while just a concept, the detailing looks tacked on...especially on the bottom sides.

Me too.  Oh well, it's a step or three from supposed concept to actual concept to actual production -so there's hope.

The rear I could probably live with.  The front, damn that's hideous.....reminds me of a catfish!  Glad this is only a concept at this point.

  The front is the weakest part. Overall though I think it looks pretty good for a concept. We'll have to see what it looks like in the tin.

Agreed, much cleaner.
