Andersson pleased with Proton test

P-G Andersson has reported a positive first test with the Proton Motorsports team ahead of his debut in a Satria Neo S2000 on next month's Monte Carlo Rally. The Swede drove the Satria for two days close to Grenoble earlier this week and will return to the French Alps, along with Proton team-mate Chris Atkinson, for a further test ahead of the Intercontinental Rally Challenge opener next year. Andersson drove a current specification Satria on his first test, but the British-based Proton Motorsports team is working on a revised engine for the January 19-22 event.

Kia bringing KV7 gullwing concept to Detroit

Filed under: , , ,



Gullwing doors... they're not just for SLS AMG owners or Back to the Future fans anymore. Kia is bringing its KV7 crossover concept to the 2011 Detroit Auto Show, and the ingress/egress on it looks to be pretty simple. This is very clearly just the rendering of the concept vehicle, and we'd bet a pair of DeLorean-themed Nikes that nothing with these doors or interior finish enters production. However, the KV7 could offer some subtle styling clues as to the future of Kia's crossover design language. We'll be in a better position to break it all down when we see it up close in Detroit.

Just past the break, you'll find a brief official statement from Kia on the KV7 concept. Enjoy!
