"Kia always likes to celebrate its milestones with concepts that pave the way for the future of automotive design and technologies on the inside. This week is the South Korean brand's 80 th anniversary, and predictably, they've gone to the lengths of materializing a concept that is one of the most impressive from their design studio. Called the Vision Meta Turismo concept, the sports sedan is not merely a design exploration; it's their "first bold glimpse into the future of mobility.""
"On the outside, the car has a very sharp silhouette with soft geometric elements on the surface and natural lines. This fuses well with the aerodynamic elements like the vertical fins and embedded air channels for optimized airflow, which are inspired by the touring cars of the 1960s. A short hood is contrasted with the long, torpedo-like, elongated shape for a spacious interior that is ultra-comfy."
Kia unveiled the Vision Meta Turismo concept for its 80th anniversary as a preview of a future electric sports sedan likely to be called EV8. The concept follows the Opposites United design theme and positions itself as a spiritual successor to the Stinger while revitalizing performance driving, immersive driving, and spacious interiors. Exterior design features a sharp silhouette, soft geometric surfaces, vertical fins, and embedded air channels inspired by 1960s touring cars to optimize airflow. A short hood and elongated, torpedo-like body create a roomy, comfortable cabin. Interior design includes an airy, lounge-inspired layout and a panoramic windshield that extends rearward. Kia categorizes the concept as performance-focused with few technical details disclosed, suggesting a premium electric contender.
