The [Kia](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meta-turismo) Sportspace is a four-seat concept car that is notable for boasting some impressively sporty style factors without compromising on comfort over long distances. This stretchy [adventure crossover](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gran-equator) is all set to be unveiled at next month's Geneva Motor Show.

What's most notable about this vehicle is the fact that it has a four-door wagon length but maintains a more diminutive and sporty presence thanks to its sloping roof and curvy rear.

Further information about the Kia Sportspace is being withheld until the highly anticipated Geneva Motor Show debut, however the company's recent trend of [hybrid-powered concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vision-xcompact) appears set to continue. This goes to show that eco-friendly factors, style and high performance can certainly be found in a single, well-conceived automotive package.
