Bigger Sephia due this month

SEOUL: Korean carmaker Kia will unveil a new Sephia this month. The current model is sold as the Timor here.

The new model, which was code-named S2, is said to be slightly bigger than the present car and will be offered with a choice of 1.5-liter single and double overhead camshaft engines or a 1.8- liter DOHC unit.

The car breaks no new styling ground. It follows present design trends and features large light clusters front and rear and has a bold crease along the side of the car. Right-hand drive models are likely to debut at the Tokyo motor show in October.
