Kia is ramping up a campaign that will lead to the unveiling of the all-new Kia K3 compact saloon, which we will come to know as the 2014 Forte in North America and the new Cerato in other overseas markets.
After the release of two drawings and a batch of teaser images earlier this week, Kia has a new promotional trick up its sleeve as it brought the K3 sedan to a mall in South Korea. The compact model is enclosed in a puzzle-like box with openings to allow by passers to catch a glimpse of the car.
Since we can’t all just fly over to Korea to see the new Forte, Kia has installed cameras that provide a live feed with multiple views (click the ‘Multiview’ option on the bar), and which you can check out right past the break.
Aside from the video, live camera feed and a few print screens, we also discovered a photo allegedly showing the K3 without camouflage.
We believe that this image (seen on your right hand side) is fake, not only because the front bumper and headlamps don’t match to what we see in the clip, but also because the rear end of the car including the side windows and wheels are distorted.
The new K3 will go on sale in Korea this fall, with the 2014 Forte and Cerato to follow early next year.
