Vehicle Highlights
The 2010 Kia Borrego is largely unchanged. This seven-passenger 4-door SUV uses traditional truck-type construction and comes in LX and EX trim levels. Power comes from a 276-hp 3.8-liter V6 paired to a 5-speed automatic transmission or a 337-hp 4.6-liter V8 that mates to a 6-speed automatic. Both rear-wheel drive and 4-wheel drive are offered--4WD models have low-range gearing for off-roading. LX V8s are 4WD only. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, front side airbags, and curtain side airbags. Available features include an uplevel audio system, fold-flat second and third row seats, a navigation system, satellite radio, and a rearview camera. A power tilt and telescopic steering wheel, leather upholstery, and heated front seats are available on the EX. Towing capacity is 5000 lb with the V6 and 7500 lb with the V8. This report is based on evaluations of the 2009 Kia Borrego.
