Lots of kia stinger but still genises

Going back to the car, we start to design, the car looks like a smaller brother of the model "G80", and designed the lines according to the design approach known as "Athletic Elegance" of the company, with a long introduction to a large ventilation network, similar to the logo tag, and the line of the roof of the flow, High and wide, curved and smooth lines, and a ceiling line flows up to the edge of the box.
