Superman joining Kia's Justice League-themed fleet of vehicles
Tue, 29 Jan 2013
In the above drawing, we only get to see a small portion of this car inspired by the Man of Steel, but it will have the requisite red-and-blue paint scheme with Superman's shield on the hood (subtle, it is not).
The previous cars include the Batman Optima, Aquaman Rio, Flash Forte Koup, Green Lantern Soul and Cyborg Forte. All six cars were created to raise awareness for the "We Can Be Heroes" campaign, which helps families in eastern Africa affected by drought and famine.
The 2013 Chicago Auto Show is just around the corner and Kia Motors America, in partnership with DC Entertainment, will unveil a new Justice League-inspired custom ride... the Superman Optima Hybrid! The 10-month long partnership has already produced five character-themed Kia vehicles – Batman, Aquaman, The Flash, Cyborg and Green Lantern -- in support of "We Can Be Heroes", DC Entertainment's giving campaign to bring help and hope to the children, women and families affected by drought and famine in the Horn of Africa
