Cross GT
Elegant yet powerful—the Cross GT is another example of Kia’s world-class design sensibility. The vehicle is a full-size, luxury hybrid that’s powered by a state-of-the-art 3.8-liter V6 engine, that features an 8-speed automatic and all-wheel drive. Backing the engine is Kia’s parallel hybrid system. Together the engine and the electric motor produce 400 horsepower and an all-electric range of 20 miles.
Based on the chassis of the GT sedan, the Cross GT features a similarly long wheelbase of 122 inches with short overhangs front and rear. Overall length and width measure up at 192.8 and 79.1 inches, respectively; teamed with a comparatively low 65.3-inch overall height, it sports a chunky profile.
Featuring a 3.8-liter V-6 and an eight-speed automatic transmission working in conjunction with an evolution of Kia’s parallel hybrid system that provides torque-vectoring all-wheel drive, Kia is quoting a combined output of 400 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque with an all-electric range of 20 miles.
Designed as a four-passenger vehicle, the Cross GT employs rear-hinged suicide doors for easy access to the rear buckets. Interior materials were chosen with a nod to environmental responsibility
The Cross GT is the next logical step in that evolution. And while only a concept today, it signals one possible design direction we may explore for the future.
