Since I heard about Kia’s KND-4 concept car debut at L.A. Auto Show, I was hoping to get a video of it’s unveiling. I have been extensively searching the web for the last five days and having a bit of luck in my pocket, I found one today.

After watching it, I can honestly admit it overexceeded my expectations. Instead of short KND-4 video preview I was looking for, I got a complete Kia press conference from L.A. Auto Show. Here it is…

    I had recently checked out Scion xB to see if what people are saying about its alikeness with soul was true. It does not look like Soul. xB’s body is very boxy. barely ANY curves and really, when I say “boxy”, I mean it looks like two boxes glued together (one small box for the front engine housing and one box for the cab. And if you look at soul there are so many parts that stick out of the basic body line. the KCD 4 is awsome. I’d like to see it in black, red or white. By the way where is this stage? Is it a stage at the Kia Stand at LA motorshow or a special Kia show? Where are the other cars of Kia in this?

    The new Soul and KND-4 both look awesome. This is truly a new and exciting design direction for Kia
    and it is one that I think Americans will love. There are a lot of us out there that want our cars to look
    different. To stand out from the others, yet still look very aesthetically pleasing, too.

    I think that Peter Schreyer has done this with the Soul, pro cee’d and KND-4. That is a great video and a
    must-see for any parties interested in Kia Motors right now and in the future. I eagerly await the new Spectra, too!

    Bryan – The Soul was designed at the american Studio, not by by Peter S. Even I thought it was desighned by Peter at first.

    Hi there! Soul and Pro_cee’d are not designed by Peter Schreyer as far as I know. Peter did not work for Kia at that time when Soul was unveiled and I think pro_cee’d was already developed by the time he joined Kia. Don’t know about KND-4.
    This video is from L.A. Auto Show Boris.
