In addition to its first hybrid model for the American car market, the Optima hybrid, also his electric car trial was presented already in Paris POP presents at the auto show in L.A. of these days Korean automobile manufacturer Office of KIA. Last but not least, the Koreans thus would stress their technology ability. And their pace in terms of a groundbreaking design. The compact three seater POP, which is not even three metres and sees itself as an offer for urban mobility was built under the direction of Chief Designer Peter Schreyer. Oriented its makers have to light and aerodynamic optimal forms of transport such as gliders. The appearance of tech was combined with the quest for optimum solutions for passengers. The result are among others a perfect panoramic view for passengers not least by an exciting far beyond the Interior windshield, discretely placed cameras that make redundant rear-view mirrors and conjure the driver the happenings around the vehicle on small screens, or but also simple-looking wheels or seats.
So extravagant as the POP from the outside are so edgy also its interior in dominant violet. The rear seat backs are in the POP in longitudinal direction, but are easily turned to the side. While the backrest and headrest in the outer wall of the cabin are integrated, the two-part seat works, if he is not required, by away alone. The resulting legroom in the only 1.74 meters wide mini is remarkable (wheelbase: 2.06 m).High-tech and simplicity supersedes each other. Perhaps not the high-end variant in the cockpit area, but all the same revolutionary seems to the narrow plexi disc facing the steering wheel on the dashboard. The TOLED (transparent organic LED) display is transparent in the disabled state and displays when the vehicle speed, battery and other important data. In contrast to the head-up display you saved the projector itself here. This makes easier the POP and Platz.Angetrieben saves is the mini KIA from a 50 kW engine with 190 nm torque, which him 160 KMS will bring. For power storage, the Koreans resorted to lithium polymer gel batteries. (Auto-Reporter.NET/Arie)More photos on the subject under UnitedPictures.com
