will unveil at this year's Geneva Motor Show the SportspaceKia SportspaceRepublic of Korea, 2015 > 2015 concept.

The vehicle's design was developed by Kia's Frankfurt studio and indicates the shape of the four-door sportswagon that will lead to a new bodystyle Optima to be launched later this year.

The Sportspace incorporates the latest grid design from Kia, in addition to "ice cube" quadruple headlights and hood bumps. The South Korean brand describes the rear with a "latin" twist with the D-pillar being pushed forward compared to other station wagons.

The concept will be equipped with a derived version of the diesel-electric engine 1.7-liter T-hybrid that will be combined with a "shift-by-wire" automatic sequential transmission with paddles on the steering wheel.

Inside Kia gave liberty to designers, resulting in the creation of a purely stylized cabin with an essence for future projects. The leather seats stand out immediately, as well as the high center console, the rear view camera, and trim in gloss leather and silver fabric with a brushed aluminum look.

The instrument panel is dominated by a rectangular touchscreen that houses the infotainment system that lets you control media, navigation, email, calendar and social network apps.
