Mud-Loving Korean Cars

The Kia Forte Koup Mud Bogger Likes to Get Its Wheels Dirty

— November 3, 2015 — Autos
The Kia Forte Koup Mud Bogger is an incredible vehicle brought to you by the Korean automaker. This particular vehicle happens to be one of no less than six adventure vehicle concepts, as Kia clearly and unabashedly decides to get its wheels dirty.

This particular vehicle, just like the other vehicles in the lineup, celebrates a specific region of the United States, in this particular case the Deep South. The vehicle was created by taking a Forte Koup and converting it into a high-riding mud bogger vehicle, which aims to celebrate the mudding culture of the American South. This car is equipped with a 4-inch suspension lift as well as flared fenders that offer extra room for the thick 28-inch off-road tires.

The Kia Forte Koup Mud Bogger is for people who like to get their feet and their tires dirty, and care only about their own enjoyment off the beaten path.
