Amongst the buzz of the plethora of new compact SUV releases set for 2017, you may have heard the name ‘Kia Stonic’ thrown around here and there. This concept is set to be released later this year, and yet Kia has managed to maintain a decent amount of mystery over whether any developments have or have not materialized past the initial concept. This is particularly intriguing, since the last peak of this concept remains very concept-y- with blatantly dramatic exterior styling and minimal insight into the inner mechanics. The Kia Stonic is teeing up to be a big surprise. With all of the manufacturers joining the petite SUV trend, we are intrigued to see how Kia’s Stonic distinguishes itself from the competition.
Even more mysterious than the enigmatic car itself, is the unique name bestowed upon it. ‘Stonic’ is a neat portmanteau that Nissan got from the first and last notes in the musical scale, as well as the word sonic. Stonic is keyed to suggest that the Stonic will be new, fresh and agile.
Kia says that the Stonic is set to be the “most customizable Kia ever”. We’re expecting a lot of personalization and more flexibility with desired features amongst trim levels and packages. This could potentially be a killer move by Kia, as most people have a very specific set of wants and needs and a hyper-customizable vehicle has yet to be introduced to the market.
Check back in with us for more updates on Kias new Stonic. You can expect to see these begin to appear in our inventory as soon as theyre released!
