1995 Kia Pregio Service Repair Workshop Manual
VEHICLE AND EQUIPMENT INTRODUCTION:
The Kia Pregio was a forward-control light van produced by Kia Motors from 1995 through 2007. Built on the Mazda Bongo platform through Kia partnership with Ford and Mazda the Pregio served as a versatile commercial and passenger van across Asian African Middle Eastern and Oceanian markets. The first generation Pregio featured a cab-over-engine layout with rear-wheel drive and a choice of petrol or diesel powertrains.
The 1995 model year introduced the Pregio as Kia first dedicated light commercial van in many global markets. It featured a robust ladder-frame chassis designed for payload-carrying duty with a payload capacity ranging from 600 to 1000 kilograms depending on body style. The front independent trailing-arm suspension with torsion bars provided adequate ride quality for a commercial vehicle. Engine options included the 2.0-liter SOHC inline-four petrol and the 2.7-liter diesel both proven units licensed from Mazda and Mitsubishi.
Kia positioned the Pregio as an affordable workhorse for small businesses delivery services and passenger transport operators. The flat-nosed design maximized interior cargo space within a compact footprint ideal for urban environments. Throughout its production the Pregio received incremental updates to the drivetrain and bodywork while retaining its fundamental architecture.
