Kia teases new hatch concept

Kia's rolled out a string of concepts over the past 12 months, foreshadowing a new generation of stylish and--presumably--affordable models it has in the works. These have included standouts such as 2011’s GT and the funky Provo and Cross GT crossovers from earlier this year.

Considering this cadence, it should come as no surprise that the Korean automaker has prepped a new concept for next month’s 2013 Frankfurt Auto Show.

Although there are no firm plans for production, the concept’s unveiling in Frankfurt will be used to gauge potential customer response for a future showroom model, Kia tells us, adding that the concept has been created in Europe with European tastes and expectations very much in mind.
