Production version of Geneva's Kia No. 3 concept spotted testing

No. 3, not exactly the most imaginative name, but the Kia concept car that so intrigued us at this week's Geneva Motor Show looks to be headed for production. What looks to be a Soul-based mule has been nabbed in spy photographs while cold-weather testing in Sweden. Kia says the slick-looking MPV will haul five passengers in its Honda Fit sized footprint. From what we can tell in the spy shots, the No. 3 will be another entry in the small/useful/fun (hopefully) segment that actually looks pretty good. Hopefully they beautify the name to match the rest of the car.

Hyundai should just take this from Kia and sell it in the US as the new Accent.

"No. 3, not exactly the most imaginative name"
Better than "No. 2"

Maybe they were hoping it had some allure to it like Chanel No.5

I'm glad that the translation to production didn't change the concept much, though I don't particularly like those front triangular windows. Overall, though, it's a sweet car!
