Kia is priming the pump for its reveal at the Geneva motor show in March with a few shots of its concept car.

Naturally, it's not giving out many details at the moment. It's obvious that it's a small car -- Kia calls it an urban concept car. The automaker notes in its press release that the "signature tiger nose morphs into a mischievous yet friendly grille and headlight arrangement, coupled with strong styling lines that exude speed and energy from every angle."

From what we see, this car could be a rival to the Nissan Juke. And that means it could show up in U.S. showrooms sometime down the road. But we're just speculating here.

We'll have more details soon.
