Kia GT: The Most Anticipated Car at the Detroit Auto Show
Introduction to the Kia GT
The Kia GT is undoubtedly the most awaited vehicle to be unveiled at the upcoming Detroit Auto Show. Over the past five years, the Korean manufacturer has added several features, having announced its launch back in 2017. This car signifies Kia's departure from its former identity of producing affordable city cars and fuel-efficient vehicles, marking its entry into a new realm of automotive excellence.
Design and Performance Details
With a series of videos circulating online recently, Kia has begun to unveil glimpses and hints of its new sports coupe's design and interior layout ahead of its global launch on the 8th of this month.
Retaining the features of the previously released concept car, the production version boasts prominent air vents on the hood and fenders, along with a striking rear spoiler and quad exhaust tips. As for the interior, the glimpses reveal it will feature options for carbon fiber trims and an automatic transmission inspired by the design of Audi's gear shifters.
Kia GT Engine
Rumors suggest that the Kia GT will be equipped with a 3.3-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine generating approximately 360 horsepower with rear-wheel drive. It is expected to be Kia's fastest car, capable of reaching speeds of 250 km/h and accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.1 seconds.
Conclusion
We hope the Kia GT meets all the expectations and excitement it has generated, and that it does not disappoint like its sibling, the Veloster Turbo.
