it's a kia .me personal i dont like the looks of those small boxie cars. even do there is a ton of room in them. the outside size will suprize you as to the room inside them. the year they released the scion in the states i was the detroit auto show and got to look at one .it suprized me how much you could put into them. also won a tee shirt from toyoto scion motors.and still wear it and love it. just not fond of the small square looks of the car style. im sure its a age thing as i grew up in the 60-80 were all american cars were big boats to todays smaller car also i like more rounded curves (sporty ,fast) looking autos.

I agree - the boxy style of the Scion xB and Nissan Cube isn't really for me. I think the Soul is a pretty cool take on the style, though - more of a sporty hatchback.

My daughter works for the local Kia dealer. They have one for display, but it's not US-spec so it cannot be driven.

It looks pretty neat - I really like the concept.

Kia and Hyundai have come a long way...
