Updated sedan KIA K3 surprised grille in the spirit of Maserati
March 25, 2019The next generation Chinese sedan was created specifically for the home market. It is planned that the debut of new items will be organized as early as next month.
At the Shanghai Motor Show, which will open its doors in mid-April, a presentation of the new generation KIA K3 sedan will take place. In the home market the updated car will appear in June. It is known that Chinese motorists will have access not only to the standard version of the sedan, but also to its hybrid version PHEV (the total capacity of the hybrid power plant, according to preliminary data, will reach 105 hp). Dimensions of new items are also not a secret.
As reported in the specialized media, referring to the Chinese automotive publications, with the change of generation KIA K3 will be 60 mm longer (4 660 mm), its width, in turn, is 1,780 mm, height – 1450 mm, wheelbase – 2 700 mm.
However, experts drew attention not to the grown dimensions of the sedan, but to its grille, which is not at all like the traditional one. The form remained the same, but the cellular structure gave way to strict vertical lines, which immediately suggests Maserati cars. Vertical “teeth” of the grille here is a kind of brand business card. On the prices of new information yet. Obviously, fans of the brand will have to prepare for the growth of prices.
