Featuring bold, coupe-inspired styling and a minimalist, driver-focused cabin, the Kia Novo hints at the design direction for the brand's next-generation compact vehicles.
It is powered by a 1.6 turbo GDI engine mated with a new seven-speed DCT.

It takes its name from the Latin 'novatus' meaning renewed or refreshed and is aimed at modern urbanities with stressful jobs and frantic schedules as it provides a calming, focused environment. 'Novatus' also provides the origin of the English word 'innovation'.
