People are losing it over this real car becoming a Transformer

We first saw the Transformers, no matter which generation of robot it was, cartoon or Shia LaBeouf flick, it was only natural for our minds to stray to think about what would it look like if all of the imaginary action occurred in real life in front of us.

This time, we have the opportunity to witness that firsthand as automaker, Kia, has ponied up and built quite the robot for the purpose of advertising one of their new cars.

If you want to grab everyone’s attention at the local auto show, this is probably a very good idea of where to start as a simple SUV goes from boring to technologically advanced robot in a span of a minute or two.

Now, they might have to figure out a way to combat the yawns that come around when it transforms back into a lackluster SUV, but hey, we are sure that the marketing team is working on that one.

Take a look at the robot for yourself in the video below and tell us what you think of this display of new Kia SUVs. If someone transplanted this in my back yard, to be honest, I would probably freak out big-time.
