Kia will debut its latest twist on the soon-to-arrive Soul compact, the Korean automaker's Scion xB and Nissan Cube fighter, at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show. Kia has only released this teaser image and has promised that this is "more than just a package treatment."
The teaser photo -- a profile shot stopping at the B-pillar -- confirms that the concept will be more than just a dressed-up Soul. The concept appears to have a thicker B-pillar than production Souls you can view by clicking HERE. This could signal any number of variations on the Soul, which is itself based on a stretched version of the Rio platform. Might Chevy have a competitor for its HHR Panel vans? Will this latest Soul concept adopt a body style akin to the Jeep Wrangler? Or could it be a trucklet of some sort? We'll be sure to share all the details as soon as we get more information, but until then, tell us what you think Kia is hiding aft of the B-pillar.
