Kia has been teasing us with pics of its Soulster Concept that it plans to unveil at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show next week. We’re here to spoil the surprise for those of you who are on the edge of your seats gathering up random guesses about what Kia has planned.

No it’s not a coupe and it’s not even a hybrid Soul. According to a pic and some info posted on Automarket, the Kia Soulster is a compact convertible pickup.

That’s all we have for now but join us later this weekend when we bring you the full details.

    its like the modern day suzuki samurai or Geo tracker? =/ for some reason the suzuki samrai was cool and the geo tracker was a POS? …i wonder how people will take to this? Im guessing it will get something like the Aztec image…ouch!

    Mr. Marley please do not mention the Aztec again, foul language is beneath you!

    well it's doubtful it's gonna get a transfer case, but with that new turbo engine they're developing, maybe it won't be so bad

    I love that design,uber sweet!!!! As a Hyundai/Kia shopper, a little truck like that getting 33-35 MPG can go in my garage anyday. I and a lot of Hyundai/KIA owners always begged and wrote letters to Hyundai/KIA to make a small car based truck akin to the old school car based trucks Toyota made in the 70s and 80s. Now they have finally listened to us. Maybe they will listen to us about their B C and E segment cars next. We've always wanted small Halo cars to Replace Accent/Rio Elantra/Spectra. Kia will get their treatment first it seems from the photos pf the Soul, and Forte/Spectra. Then again, the Soul is essentially a Next Generation Rio. The question is, will they sell the Soul and Rio together forever? Or, will they just sell the Rio until the inventory runs out, then cancelling it?
