Subcompact, B-segment SUV arrives in South America first before being rolled out to other non-European markets
Most cars, from the humble Mini to the humble-bragging, supercar-slaying Porsche 911 Turbo, are sold in pretty much the exact same form around the world. But some automakers tailor their vehicles to the region where they’re being sold. And in ‘international’ markets, ie. not Europe or North America, and generally budget conscious, that can mean customers getting some second-rate rides.
The Kardian also promises to be more practical thanks to its large roof rails that can carry 80 kg loads and can even be unbolted and re-attached across the car.

That power comes from a 1.0-liter three-cylinder turbocharged engine hooked up to a dual-clutch transmission and generating 123 hp and 162 lb-ft of torque.
