Kia's Venue-based sub-4 meter SUV has been spotted testing in Delhi.

The new model, codenamed QYI appears to have wraparound headlights. The front bumper appears to house a pair of fog lamps. The SUV has roof rails, a shark fin antenna and is riding on steel wheels.

Kia's compact SUV is expected to be offered with the same engine options as the Hyundai Venue. It could get the 1.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine and more than one automatic transmission option.

The Kia QYI is expected to compete with the Hyundai Venue, Maruti Vitara Brezza, Tata Nexon and Mahindra XUV300. It is likely to be launched in the second half of next year.
