Paris Preview: Kia cee'd Hybrid

Kia’s will have at least two new tricks at the Paris Motor Show, one of them being the Kia Soul. The other will be a Kia cee’d gas-electric hybrid. Already available in coupe, 5-door hatch, and sportwagon variants, a hybrid addition based on the five-door would be a perfect addition to the line. So far, the only details we have is that the c’ee hybrid isn’t planned for sale until 2010, when it will join a train of new hybrids from other makers. Kia apparently decided that is when they’ll be able to sell enough of them to make a profit. But we will get the complete scoop on it at next week’s Paris Motor Show, so you won’t have to wait that long.
