Chicago Auto Show Tease: Kia e-AWD Concept


Kia has released a teaser for their upcoming concept car that will be shown at Chicago. The concept will feature an electric all-wheel drive system and be aimed at "city dwellers seeking the ultimate urban escape." From what we can tell from the teaser shot, it looks like a Soul with a few more inches of ground clearance and body cladding.

We'll have more information and live shots from Chicago Auto Show in a couple of weeks.

I wonder how cold the Electric All-Wheel drive system can work down to? What are the bottom and top limits for use.
