With a stable full of fresh new production cars, Kia is planning a new design concept for the 2010 Chicago Auto Show, which kicks off next week. The Kia Ray plug-in hybrid concept offers a preview of how Kia will package its developing plug-in hybrid technology, and this second teaser gives us a glimpse of the car's front end.

The first teaser revealed the concept's rear three-quarter view, masked in darkness, but showing off a sporty fastback profile,  a panoramic glass sunroof, some very muscular haunches and what appears to be LED detailing on the rear tail-lamp assembly. The new teaser reveals little more, but carries forward the decidedly futuristic theme.

Nothing else about the car has been revealed yet, but with just 7 days to go until the February 10th unveiling, there's not long to wait now.

The Ray was penned by the team at Kia Design Center America and is a preview of the direction Kia is considering for a future plug-in hybrid vehicle--one that appears to be stylish and sporty.

Stay tuned for more updates.

[Kia]

  1. Headlights remind me of Volkswagen, though not so much as Chevy's Aveo RS concept.

    Bad stuff?

  2. Terrific looking car...congrats to Kia! With their quality, the looks of this car and great gas milage..an answer to prayer! Speaking of prayer, Korea..small country..has six of the largest chuches in the world. Far larger than American mega-churches for the most part, and these people take "living for Christ" very seriously. Seoul is dotted with thousands of Gospel preaching churhces. Christianity has impacted every strata of Korean life...including business. Koreans are now sending missionaires to the United States...Bible believing missionaires..praying for the USA to experience true revival. Again, great job on a terrific car! :)
