Unfortunately there's nothing online about this concept so I'm afraid I'll have to give up.

Or can the designer be found online even if his car can't ?

I don't think he can, no; I haven't been able to find anything out about his career at Kia, if he had one.
So I've given you a point and I think we'll call it solved.
I'll leave it where it is for the moment in case someone finds they have the same book I have (and it's quite likely some AutoPuzzlers have since it was a popular series of soft or hard-backed books) but if no-one does then I'll move it to solved eventually.

Yes, RCA = the Royal College of Art.

The competition was the RCA Degree Show of 1986 and the publication was the 'Winter 1987' one, which was published in January 1987.
