Kia Green Lights Soul GT and Convertible For Production

The all-new Kia Soul will make its world debut at the Detroit Motor Show in January.

But Kia is set to take its boxy supermini up a gear, with insider sources confirming the arrival of a high-performance GT model - aimed at bolstering the Soul’s following in Europe - as well as a convertible version, designed to continue the car’s runaway success in the US.

Kia has made no secret of its desire to build a more performance-focussed Soul variant, as shown with its Track’ster concept which debuted at this year’s Chicago Motor Show.

There's only one way to refer to this!!
Why would damn car manufacturers show the world something like this, meaning they can build it, and then, they come up with a completely different thing? Bastards!!!
Absolutely beautiful!
Just build it that way!

Too bad it will look nothing like this. It will be nothing more than a 2 door version of the current one. The wide fenders, wheels and front lower fascia will be gone. Makes me wonder why they come up with these bad ass concepts only to make a production version that looks like it already needs a redesign.
