Due to be revealed in July in Korea, the 2022 Sportage has been carefully crafted to establish new benchmarks in its segment - for its advanced exterior and interior design, connectivity tech, and responsive yet highly efficient powertrains.
Revealed earlier this year to great
acclaim from the design community, Kia’s new design language - Opposites
United - is at the core of the Sportage, influencing every aspect of
its appearance and character. The early images hint at an assertive and
cutting-edge presence for the SUV - paying homage to nature’s perfection
and simplicity whilst connecting with the brand’s new design direction.
The
all-new Sportage has a muscular stance and strong yet refined
silhouette. Notable new details include the crisp, taught character
lines that ripple across the surfaces. The front creates an instant and
thought-provoking statement, with a detailed-orientated black grille
graphic spanning the width of the face. At the rear, muscular shoulder
lines drop gently to meet slim daytime-running lamps, which flank the
new Kia logo and Sportage emblem.
The interior design sketch
reveals a driver-orientated space that plays with boldness in character,
softness in qualities and innovation in technology. At the core is a
beautifully sculpted integrated curved display.
The all-new
Sportage follows Kia’s recent company rebrand that aims to create
sustainable mobility solutions for customers by revamping all facets of
its business. The first marker on the journey came in March when Kia’s
first dedicated BEV - the EV6 - was unveiled.
More details regarding design features of the 2022 Kia Sportage will be unveiled in the coming weeks.
