The 2017 Kia Sportage will make its official debut at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show next month.

Giving a sneak preview of its next-generation crossover, Kia has released some teaser sketches of the new Sportage while confirming that it’ll bow September 15 in Germany. Entering its fourth-generation, the all-new Sportage will have a bold, progressive design according to Kia. The styling “creates visual harmony out of the tension between bold, precise feature lines and dramatically-sculptured bodywork.”

Essentially the new Sportage will preview Kia’s future design language that will trickle down to other model updates in the near future. Expect the interior of the Kia Sportage to see numerous changes, but it’s focus will be on a simple modern style. The Korean automaker boasts that the fourth-generation Sportage will have the “most refined, highest-quality cabin to date.”

Check back next month for up-to-the-minute photos and coverage of the 2017 Kia Sportage unveiling as AutoGuide.com will be reporting live from the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show.
