From the Spies: 2010 Kia Forte Coupe + Rendering

Here are the first spy shots of Kia's upcoming 2-door variant of the Forte, code-named XK. In addition to the spy shots, we bring you a photoshopped rendering. The Forte Coupe has already been unveiled in concept guise as the KOUP Concept at last year's New York International Auto Show.

Penned by Peter Schreyer, the Forte Coupe will not differ from the KOUP Concept much, other than the expected production tweaks. The engine offerings will be the same as the Forte/Spectra Sedan. One striking design element we notice is the pillar-less door frames. The launch date has not been disclosed yet, but reports point to a reveal near the end of the year.

NOTE: The above image is a doctored version of two original fragment shots posted after the jump.
