The Kia China line up is quite frankly, pretty damned good. They have a wide range of vehicles, from small hatchbacks (i.e. the recently launched Kia Cerato hatchback) to large sedans (Oprius) and SUVs of compact and full sized models (Kia Sportage and Kia Sorento). Kia plans to increase its line up with the rather impressive looking Kia Soul (above) The Soul is expected to first hit the European and Korean markets, and then at the same time go on the market in China and the USA. Chinese automotive journalists say the Soul is expected to hit the Chinese market in March 2009, alongside the mechanically similar, but differently designed Hyundai i30
Looks like a Toyota bB had a baby with a Honda Element. Kia’s making waves though, especially since they got Peter Schreyer over from Volkswagen to become their new designer.

I thought Chinese were boycotting everything Korean.
