2010 Kia Venga MPV
These are the first official pictures of the Kia Venga, a mini MPV Kia claims has the space of a Focus. Its clever packaging is believed to maximize interior space. The Venga has the footprint of a Fiesta and is based on the Soul platform. To be built in Europe, the car is 4068mm long and 1600mm tall, with a 2615mm wheelbase, and inside there is a sliding rear bench that can also fold flat. The Venga will be powered by 1.4 and 1.6 petrol and diesel engines, producing between 74bhp and 113bhp. Start-stop technology will feature on all the versions. It is speculated that a hybrid will join the range. The exterior styling stays true to the No.3 concept from the Geneva show. Michael Cole, managing director of Kia UK, said. This is exactly the kind of vehicle UK motorists are looking for as we emerge from the recent economic turmoil a fantastically flexible package providing big-car comfort and space within a compact package. If you're in the UK, expect the Kia Venga to go on sale in February. In the meantime, it will go on display at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
