Kia Reveals Vision Meta Turismo Concept, Seen as Electric Stinger Successor

The futuristic fastback showcases an immersive AR head-up display, prompting speculation about a return to a halo performance sedan in EV form.

Overview

  • Kia unveiled the Vision Meta Turismo at its 80th‑anniversary exhibition at Kia Vision Square in Yongin, presenting a sharply styled four‑door fastback concept.
  • The cabin features a new augmented‑reality head‑up display with Speedster, Dreamer and Gamer modes, a D‑shaped wheel, a small square cluster and a joystick‑style control.
  • Exterior cues include a cab‑forward stance, short overhangs, digital side mirrors integrated with lighting, muscular rear haunches and a geometric glass roof.
  • Kia has not disclosed powertrain, platform or production plans, while outlets speculate a potential E‑GMP or next‑gen eM architecture and position it as a possible EV7/EV8 halo sedan.
  • Reporters note a history of on‑off reports around the GT1/EV8 program and suggest a broader showing could come at January’s Brussels Motor Show alongside the confirmed EV2 debut.
