Kia is displaying no less than four eye-catching concepts at SEMA 2016, designed to provide for different active lifestyles and to show off the company’s interest in custom vehicles.
Perhaps the most interesting of all is the Kia Sorrento Ski Condola. As the name hints, the vehicle has been created to tackle cold, icy and snowy conditions and therefore utilizes a set of special Dominator Rubber Tracks. Additionally, it sports LED bars, a custom metal roof rack and a modified interior with different door panels and a refreshed dashboard and console.
Elsewhere, Kia is displaying its autonomous Niro Triathlon. The model comes courtesy of LGE-CTS Motorsports and aims to be the perfectly vehicle for those that enjoy cycling. It therefore includes a special pickup truck-inspired bed which supports a unique bike rack and a tool box. The model also includes a laser bike lane light which illuminates a path behind the vehicle which a cyclist can ride along.
Another concept from Kia is the School of Rock Sedona, essentially a recording studio on wheels. There’s a microphone, digital mixing board and two flat-screen monitors and storage for guitars and other instruments.
Last but not least is the Soul First Class, a totally autonomous concept created by LUX Motorwerks which makes do without a steering wheel, rear-facing seats and numerous luxury features to allow occupants to enjoy the benefits of self-driving technology. These include a 40-inch Samsung LED TV, a Mac mini computer and high-end speakers.
