Kia is teasing a new concept coming to the Chicago Auto Show this year.

The brand says it will be an all-wheel drive electric vehicle built for life off road. Kia says the car is built for urban dwellers looking for adventure in the wilderness.

Kia didn’t say which vehicle the concept would be based on, but it’s clear from the teaser photo that it is the Soul. An all-electric Soul already exists that carries a range of 93 miles on a single charge and makes 109 hp and 210 lb-ft of torque.
