I thought these were released in October of 1996. Not called Sephia Leo outside of KDM.

Two sources state October of 1996. Lateef can you please enlighten me where you found 1995 as first year for the hatch?

Listing as 1996 for now.

Not sure about other countries, but in Italy the hatchback was added in January 1997.

This scene is set in Belarus, but the trash can, bus stop and no parking sign all indicate it was filmed in Germany.

The summer 1994 facelift was available from mid-1996 in Germany:

That was three years ago and my name's not Morpheus - I don't remember and can't be expected to. I'll try, though...

Loosely translated (from Korean Wikipedia):
Quote Sepia Leo, a European Sepia five-door hatchback vehicle, was originally scheduled to be released in 1994,[8], but was released on October 23, 1996 due to Kia Motors' business deterioration and did not succeed in the market.


The second part of the sentence may or may not have been there when I read the article back then. Or I just assumed the hatch was launched simultaneously as the facelifted sedan as no pre-facelift hatch exists. On English Wikipedia there's even a picture described as 1994-1997 Kia Mentor GLX liftback (Australia), which I believe is a falsehood now. Will accept as 1997 as Kia uses model years.

No problem ;)

While I remember much of the content of my additions without problem, I tend to forget things I've commented on and why.
