The Kia Pregio
is a rear-wheel drive
cabover
van
and minibus
based on the Kia Bongo
and manufactured by Kia
from November 1995 to 2006. It replaced the previous Bongo
-based van, sold as the “Besta” in most markets. At one point, it slotted between the Kia Carens
and the larger, front-wheel drive
Kia Carnival/Sedona
. The long-wheelbase version was known as the Kia Pregio Grand
. The Kia Pregio Grand is a best selling van in Latin American countries such as Colombia and Ecuador because of its high passenger capacity in its segment (16-19 passengers).

Kia Pregio (CT, Malaysia)

 

A different looking Pregio debuted in late 2003, largely a facelift of the first model which could pass stricter European safety demands. It continued until its demise in 2006, due to dropping demand. The Pregio/Pregio Grand was dropped after the 2006 model year to make room for the more passenger-oriented, similarly-sized, short-wheelbase, front-wheel drive
Kia Carnival/Sedona (originally the Carnival/Sedona was sold only in long-wheelbase). In South Korea, it was locally manufactured as the Kia Bongo III Coach
.

In Indonesia, a locally manufactured coach van version of the Bongo III
replaced the Pregio; it was marketed as the Kia Travello.

В 2003 году Kia Pregio выходит на рынок в рестайлинговой версии.
Большие изменения произошли в передней части автомобиля.
Они коснулись не только оптики и кузовных деталей (панель капота, фары, бампер полностью новые), но кроме того, у новинки увеличен передний свес, чтобы соответствовать стандартам безопасности Euro NCAP.
Сзади поменялись фонари и дверь багажника.
Доступные для фургона Pregio функции безопасности включают надувные подушки, антиблокировочную систему.

Коммерческие модели оборудованы 2,5-литровым дизелем и пятиступенчатой механической коробкой передач.

В стандартное оборудование фургона Kia Pregio производитель включил дистанционное управление замками с электроприводом, открытие лючка бензобака из салона.
Все фургоны и панельные фургоны (с глухими боковыми стенками вместо задних окошек) оборудованы защитными брусьями.
Помимо прочего, в «базе» уже есть усилитель руля, электрические стеклоподъемники, карманы на передних дверях, AM/FM/CD-система, встроенная в центральное сиденье консоль с подстаканниками, обогрев заднего стекла и задний стеклоочиститель.
Опции включали кондиционер.

Kia Pregio 2003-2005 в зависимости от модификации приводится в движение одним из двух вариантов дизельного двигателя.
Основным служит силовой агрегат объемом 2,5 л с системой впрыска Common Rail, который развивает максимальную мощность 69 кВт (94 л.с.) и крутящий момент 220 Нм.
Альтернативой в семействе Pregio служит 3,0-литровый вариант двигателя JT мощностью 90 л.с.
(191 Нм).
Оба мотора оснащались 5-ступенчатой механической коробкой передач, но для некоторых версий производителем был предусмотрен опциональный 4-ступенчатый «автомат», возможность оснащения которым также зависела от рынка сбыта.
Привод задний.

Схема подвесок традиционна для многих коммерческих машин подобного класса — это независимая двухрычажка спереди и цельная балка сзади на рессорах.
Автомобиль стандартно получил колеса размером 195-R14-8PR.
Если говорить о внешних размерах, то длина кузова — 4820 мм, ширина 1810, высота 1970 мм.
Расстояние между осями — 2580 мм.
Для разворота потребуется не менее 10,6 метра (от бордюра до бордюра).
Количество мест — 3 или 6 в зависимости от того, обычная это кабина или двухрядная.
Трехместные модели имеют отсек размером 2755 x 1570 x 1325 (Д х Ш х В).
У шестиместных длина уменьшена до 1630 мм.
Грузоподъемность фургонов составляет примерно 1300 кг.

В дополнение к антиблокировочной системе тормозов производитель предложил для обновленного Kia Pregio подушки безопасности.
В машине установлены трехточечные ремни на передних местах и регулируемые подголовники для всех сидений, высоко расположенный задний стоп-сигнал.
Удлиненная конструкция передней части повышает безопасность при фронтальном столкновении. There is a side impact protection system with built-in amplifiers in the doors, as well as a headlight level control, rear fog lights.

From the point of view of the main design solutions, Kia Pregio can be called Besta’s successor, but if we take into account design, convenience, equipment, and so on, then there is actually an abyss between these machines.
With the advent of this model, KIA’s status as a company capable of producing its own reliable and comfortable commercial vehicles has increased.
The car was successful in foreign markets and competed directly with the Hyundai H100.
The main disadvantage is considered to be poor protection against corrosion.
After the update, Pregio stayed on the market for several more years – depending on the countries of sale, the last for it was the 2006 or 2007 model year.

In 2003, Kia Pregio enters the market in a restyled version.
Big changes have taken place in the front of the car.
They affected not only the optics and body parts (hood panel, headlights, bumper are completely new), but in addition, the new item has an increased front overhang to meet Euro NCAP safety standards.
Behind changed lights and tailgate.
Safety features available for the Pregio van include airbags, anti-lock braking system.

Commercial models are equipped with a 2.5-liter diesel engine and a five-speed manual transmission.

In the standard equipment of the Kia Pregio van, the manufacturer included remote control of electric locks, opening the gas tank hatch from the passenger compartment.
All vans and panel vans (with blank side walls instead of rear windows) are equipped with protective bars.
Among other things, the “base” already has power steering, power windows, pockets on the front doors, an AM / FM / CD system, a console with cup holders built into the center seat, rear window heating and a rear wiper.
Options included air conditioning.

Kia Pregio 2003-2005, depending on the modification, is driven by one of two diesel engine options.
The main engine is the 2.5-liter common rail injection system, which develops a maximum power of 69 kW (94 hp) and a torque of 220 Nm.
An alternative in the Pregio family is the 3.0-liter version of the JT engine with 90 hp.
(191 Nm).
Both engines were equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission, but for some versions, the manufacturer provided an optional 4-speed “automatic”, the possibility of equipping which also depended on the market.
Rear drive.

The suspension scheme is traditional for many commercial vehicles of this class – it is an independent two-lever front and a solid rear beam on springs.
The car received standard wheels in size 195-R14-8PR.
If we talk about external dimensions, then the length of the body is 4820 mm, width 1810, height 1970 mm.
The distance between the axles is 2580 mm.
For a turn, you will need at least 10.6 meters (from curb to curb).
The number of seats is 3 or 6, depending on whether it is a regular cabin or a two-row one.
Triple models have a 2755 x 1570 x 1325 (L x W x H) compartment.
For six-seaters, the length is reduced to 1630 mm.
The load capacity of the vans is approximately 1300 kg.

In addition to the anti-lock braking system, the manufacturer offered airbags for the updated Kia Pregio.
The car has three-point seat belts in the front seats and adjustable headrests for all seats, a high-mounted rear brake light.
The extended front design improves safety in a frontal collision.
There is a side impact protection system with built-in amplifiers in the doors, as well as a headlight level control, rear fog lights.

comfortable, easy to drive, soft, dynamic, roomy, repairable (especially if the hands are in the right place). economical.

the body is rather weak, it blooms quickly, even with processing.

the engine has actually worked a million km. Suspension and running gear changed. The axle gearbox was changed (the shank oil seal was missed). Consumables, windshield, two door handles, air housing, side door rollers

Reliable motor low for 3x. liters of volume fuel consumption, soft suspension for Mikrika. adjustable tilt steering wheel, good visibility.

Light ass and no self-block in the bridge. In winter, it is better to put on a car in good spikes. upholstery cracked and peeled off over time. weak metal at the point of attachment of the body to the front spars. You have to squint. Highly positioned middle roller of the sliding door. looks nice but not practical.

Replacing the motor with a contract one, replacing the front shock absorbers, replacing the bearings in the axle shafts. floor welding for the driver and front passenger. generator repair.

This is all that has been done to the car in 4 years of ownership.

spacious, soft, practical and, most importantly, cheap spare parts, probably the prices are at the level of our basins, no brains, no abs, nothing is a simple car in general

spare parts to order, front camber, many spare parts do not make their way into the programs, you have to select (the rear crosspiece for the cardan fits with KIA SORENTO) and so on. Well, if there was such a new one, I would buy it.

as I bought it, I did the internal combustion engine 2 times, the front pads, the pump, the cordan cross, the rear axle shank oil seal, the central lock, and so on.
