Kia dons the stars and stripes

Remember DC Comics' 'Wonderwoman', the original female superhero? Well, to add an extra bit of jizz to the New York Motor Show, Kia in the US has produced this special version of its Sportage, dressed up in the patriotic Wonderwoman style.

The car will be used to promote the DC Entertainment 'We Can Be Heroes' campaign to bring help in alleviating the hunger crisis in the Horn of Africa.

Red upholstery and dash pieces combined with blue LED lighting were added to continue the Sportage’s exterior color scheme into the cabin. The custom seats were inspired by Wonder Woman's signature garb and embroidered with her logo, while the cargo area of the vehicle is adorned with stars and an eagle and features a see-through panel, which displays Wonder Woman's tiara, bracelets and glowing Lasso of Truth.

Also at the NYMS, Kia revealed its new generation Soul and a revised Optima.
