Lol, a Hyundai-Kia pickup truck spyshot

[Revenant]

This spy shot was allegedly taken in Fountain Valley, California which went straight through the Hyundai HQ. The picture features just a concept, but fully operational Kia Mojave.

It looks funky especially with the thin tires and big rims.



A Few Facts About the Mojave Truck

Push a button and the Mojave's rear bed will stretch into the passenger compartment. The power-operated rear wall slides forward to extend the bed from 71 inches to 86 inches in length, enough room to fit a 4x8 sheet of plywood. The extended bed position provides built-in protection from forward-sliding cargo due to the design of the folded rear seat back.

The rear tailgate creates a flush, extended load floor when folded flat, making the removal of heavy or rolling items much easier.

There's extra storage space for smaller items inside the truck bed, behind each wheel well.

Powertrain & Suspension

The Mojave concept truck has a 3.8-liter, DOHC 24-valve V6 that puts out an estimated 280 horsepower, coupled with a 5-speed electronically-controlled automatic transmission. Its 130 inch wheelbase is longer than the Kia Sorento platform on which it is based.

* Fully-boxed ladder frame with nine cross members
* Double-wishbone, coil-over-shock front independent suspension
* Five-link rigid rear axle with coil springs and level-control
* Front and rear suspensions augmented by stabilizer bars and gas-pressure shocks
* Power-assisted rack and pinion steering
* Power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes with ABS, electronic brake force distribution (EBS) and brake assist
* 20-inch sport tires on 20-inch machine-finished wheels

It's fugly indeed. The shape and placing of the foglights look similar to those of the Tucson's.

IT IS A CONCEPT. I'm sure the production model will look different.

functionality mentioned is good...there are NO mid sized pick-up in the market that can fit a 4x8 cargo (like the plywood). Design wise, sana maghire naman sila ng mga italian designers....

I think the windshield is quite aerodynamic for a truck.
