New Logo

[Soca Boy]

KIA just showed off a new EV concept with a new logo maybe.

Yeah, it’s time for a update.

People still will debadeb because it doesn't say Porsche or Lamborghini. Never understood why you wanna debadge is like went to pretend it's not a Kia because you changed badges?

I myself have not had badges on any of our vehicles for many years. I like to have less clutter (clean) on our cars.

Plus it keeps people guessing.

it looks pretty good. Hope they adopt it for their whole line up. It certainly needs an update.

I still don't like it. And no, it's not because it says Kia @GenesisG70, it's because the regular Kia badges (and also this one) are ugly.

Yes, I HAVE rebadged my Stinger but I have the 3.0 flying K badges, which also identify that it's Kia. They just look nicer in my opinion. I think it's up to the person to do what they like the look of for their car. That's why you buy a Stinger isn't it? For performance AND appearance? If you don't like the appearance of something, you change it (wheels, spolier etc).

Agreed. I put a Kia badge on the front, but the KDM version which is not ugly.

? It has nothing to do with it not being a Porshe or Lambo badge lol it has everything to do with its generic looks.

I have owned many kias and hyundias and i never replaced the Hyundai H, but the KIA i always swap out. I just dont like it.

Most are replacing the Kia badges with Kia badges, so I personally don’t see it as an issue.

Other people like to de-badge (clean skin) thier cars completely, in the end it’s a personal thing, most car enthusiasts like to add their own custom flair to their cars, for me that’s what makes being a car enthusiast fun & interesting.

It would be boring & dull if they all looked the same with absolutely no options or accessories available, oh then everyone would complain that you have no choices...lol.

Am trying to think of which logo I like the auto industry, maybe Porsche.

My favourite logo is Aston Martin.

I like the Audi circles too.. And as for NOT being a brand snob, I hate the Ferrari logo, though it's one of my favourite cars. If I had one, I would definitely rebadge it hahahaha.

I find interesting though that I don't see massive amounts of debadging on Lexus Hondas, Porsches, etc. And I don't think the Kia logo is sooo ugly and nasty that we need to massively debadge it, of course you can change the appearance of your car, its your car. But still think the "I have a Kia badge on my car" plays a role in the debadging. But of course is just my opinion, do whatever you like with your material possessions.
To me I will keep the Kia badge, its clean nice and proudly represents the 5th largest car maker on planet earth, they even make their own steel and that 8 speed transmission is made in house as well. Cheers and do whatever you like!

That's good if you like it. Saves you the hassle. I think it's terribly different to the other ones you posted and nowhere near as nice. But... It would be dull and boring if we all thought the same thing
