Kia Retona 2023

Recently I found out that KIA had produced between 1998-2003 a mini SUV, the Retona. It was based on KIA's military jeeps (known as K131 or KM420) for South Korean army and its main rivals were the Lada Niva, Suzuki Jimny & Ssangyong Korando (1st generation).
So, my main question was: What if KIA decided to revive this model? Of course, the answer is on my new render! Would you like a new South Korean rival for models like the Jeep Wrangler, Land Rover Defender (short wheelbase; 3-door version) & Suzuki Jimny?

The new Kia Retona - Would you like to see a new competitor of Suzuki Jimny, Jeep Wrangler & Land Rover Defender (3-door version) models?
