After we have seen a couple of renderings of three-door Kia Soul and it’s sexier topless version, the Kia Soul cabrio, here comes the third (but not the final) Soul variant, dubbed the Soul Surfer. Based on three door Kia Soul, the Surfer keeps the same lines as we have seen on production model, but in the same time imports some design elements from several Kia concept cars we have seen lately.

The Soul Surfer benefits from a large panoramic glass-roof, which has been first shown on the Koup concept car and will finally find it’s way into production Kia models. Most probably, the panoramic glass-roof won’t make it to the two-door Forte/Koup, but as recent spy shots indicate, it will be available on the 2010 Sorento XM and YN mini MPV.

Other exterior modifications that distinguish Surfer from production Soul model include a set of beautiful 5-spoke chrome alloy-wheels, redesigned bumpers that don’t feature brush guards and a pair of exhaust pipes integrated in the lower part of rear bumper. Different bonnet design and a pair of roof-mounted surfboards makes up the tweaks made outside.

Just like other two Soul variants we have shown you here, the Soul Surfer has also been designed by a very talented 3D-designer Kevin! Thanks for sending us these beautiful renderings!
