Kia Borrego
Wanting to beef up its series of SUV models, the Korean automaker offers us a new one this year, a large all-terrain SUV with fore-and-aft engine. The buyer has a choice between a V6 and a V8 engine. Considering today's environmental situation, the introduction of such a model can be surprising, but we must remember that some people need this kind of vehicle for work or family. The Borrego's off-road performance is excellent.
