[Report] Kia GT four-door coupe could be launched within two years, work is progressing well

Two years ago, the Kia at Frankfurt Motor Show had presented the Kia GT Concept whose production version will be unveiled sometime in 2015. The car will act as a “halo car” of Kia, and will be placed in four-door coupe category currently dominated by German companies.

Will be built on the rear-wheel drive platform K9, drive available except in sedan and coupe and wagon version. The move will help reduce production costs but simultaneously addressed to a much larger audience.

To prototype wore a turbo V6 3.3-liter engine performance 395 hp and 534 Nm of torque, which combined with an 8-speed automatic transmission sending drive to the rear wheels. The production model may however be equipped with a smaller engine or even a hybrid , which maintains its performance V6, but will have a better fuel.
