Kia GT Concept may enter production in one form or another

By ,

After making its debut at the 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show, the Kia GT Concept will reportedly wind up on an assembly line in the near future.

“We have plans to build a GT -- we spoke about it at our global marketing conference in Singapore,” Kia’s vice-president of overseas marketing, Soon-Nam Lee, said to Auto Express. “We’ll be mainly targeting the end of 2016 or early 2017.”

With sporty premium styling both inside and out, the Kia GT Concept features ultra-thin sport seats and pillar-less rear “suicide” doors.

The production model will probably come in FWD configuration instead of RWD, although AWD could be available.
