New Kia mini-MPV Concept at Geneva

Kia will show off a new mini-MPV concept at Geneva, and this is the first teaser image, which gives you a pretty good idea of what to expect

Kia's Geneva motor show star will be a mini-MPV concept, which previews a new Vauxhall Meriva, Honda Jazz and Nissan Note rival.

The Korean manufacturer has released this teaser, along with some pretty vague information, ahead of the car's unveiling at Geneva in March.

Apparently, Kia reckons that its new MPV will bring "style and cool to what is currently a bland segment of the new car market."

Well, if you're paying Peter Schreyer, the man who designed the Audi TT, to be your chief stylist, then at least you should put him to work occasionally.

The concept is likely to be called the YN for now, but the production version will probably get some outrageous name fitting for the brand that brought us the Cee'd and the Soul.

Talking of the Soul, that car's plaform underpins this new concept too, so expect the YN to be powered by the same competent diesel and weedy petrols as that car.
