Kia's Sportage-size crossover concept owes a nod to Renault designs; both companies showcased open-backed MAVs in Paris, and the Korean offering was also conceived in Europe. A 3.5-liter V-6 engine powers the KCV-II and its permanent all-wheel-drive system. This powertrain sits on a unique platform, code-named KM, which Kia says it may use in the future for sport-utility vehicles and crossovers. —Global Auto Net
