To sum it up, the general driving impression of the Koup is one of a lifestyle car that has been styled to look sporty, with mechanical paraphernalia that delivers an improved driving experience as compared to its sedan sibling. That being said, KIA is spot on in terming the Koup as a sporty car, rather than a sports car, and with a fairly competitive price and no real competition in the market at the moment, the Koup is the ideal car for those who are more concerned over aesthetics than outright performance.

Firstly let's take a look at the aesthetics of this nifty little toy. At first glance, you might mistake the Voyager Pro to be an earpiece of a telemarketeer and it's hard not to think that way, but as we go through the gadget, bear in mind that this product is function over form, and after taking a few more glances, I am sure you will start to like it gradually. In terms of colour scheme, Plantronics has opted for a more sedate approach with the usage of black and gray, giving it a more business like look. As for overall design, the Voyager Pro is nowhere as compact as some other hands-free kits in the market such as the Plantronics Discovery 975, but compactness was never tops on the Voyager Pro's design team's list, but this is where functionality comes into play as the Voyager PRO is designed to cling snugly to the area behind your ear which is why it is a tad larger than other hands-free kits. The two main reasons for the Voyager Pro's design are firstly, the fitment of a battery as large as possible for usage durability and secondly, provide comfort during prolonged use.
