Kia Unveils Vision Meta Turismo Concept at 80th‑Anniversary Event

It previews Kia’s next‑phase design with an AR‑driven interior, with technical and production details still undisclosed.

Overview

  • Kia revealed the Vision Meta Turismo at its 80th‑anniversary ceremony in Yongin, describing it as a statement of future direction for mobility design and experience.
  • The four‑door fastback features cab‑forward proportions, slim LED lighting that flows into digital mirror mounts, and a minimalist cabin with a yoke‑style controller.
  • An augmented‑reality head‑up display anchors three digital modes—Speedster, Dreamer and Gamer—projecting 3D graphics onto smart glass across the windscreen.
  • Kia showed a joystick-like control integrated into the driver’s seat armrest but did not explain its function, and it released no powertrain, platform or performance information.
  • Media coverage links the concept to a possible electric successor to the discontinued Stinger (often referred to as EV7/EV8/GT1), but Kia has not confirmed any production intent and says more details will follow.
