Kia UK will reveal a unique ‘restomod’ vehicle at the Bicester Heritage ‘Scramble’ this Sunday (6 October). The car is a restored, modified version of a donor vehicle from the brand’s UK heritage fleet.
It has been created to mark Kia’s 80th birthday. After significant reworking under the skin, the car boasts a similar power-to-weight ratio to various hot hatches from the 1970s and 1980s, and a focus on driver engagement.
This will be the third ‘one-off’ car that Kia UK has created in recent years, following in the footsteps of two unique and radically different vehicles – the Stinger ‘GT420’ and Soul EV beach buggy. The all-powerful Stinger ‘GT420’ was created in 2019, a tuned-up, stripped-down track car to show off the performance potential of Kia’s 3.3-litre twin-turbo grand tourer. The Soul EV beach buggy showed a car reimagined for surfers, fitted with a custom surfboard rack and wooden-decked interior, and featuring ‘rally raid’ style elevated suspension and chunky tyres.
