Kia 1.4 CRDi Venga Driving Report

Kia 1.4 CRDi Venga Driving Report
A short, round and high snout shapes the face of the Venga. The character of the Korean is also supported by the flat and long windscreen, the rear design emphasizes large lighting units. Due to the short overhangs, long wheelbase makes a lot of room for the high cabin.

Inside, you meet well made, soft materials that emit a certain value. The circular instruments are with their classic design in view of the driver. The center console can be seen in the design and operating concept more demanding. Kia has learned his lesson here, obviously: Europeans are pleased also to inner values.

On the driver waits after boarding a pleasantly high seat position. That allows him not to recognize the front end, but still allowed a good view of the road. As a very pleasant proves the optional panoramic roof (900 €), which illuminates the interior.

In Venga, a wide range of racks and lockers available. In addition, the rear seat can move to 130 millimeters, which is either the backbench or more a space for the luggage. Between 314 liters and 570 liters are available, depending on whether you insert the load floor up or down. created by folding down the rear seat (60:40) up to 1341 liters of space for cargo.

The Venga demonstrated by its electronic power steering to be particularly agile (Turning circle: 10.42 meters). The taut suspension also meet the expectations of Europeans and allows a very dynamic style of driving. Circuit, the direct steering, turning radius and deflection behavior give him the potential to runabouts with Go-Cart ambitions. The engine in our test car had the will but not just. He would have liked to have allowed a little more bite. But he works very frugal.

The Venga belongs to the genus of the attractively designed minivans. He draws attention to itself. He will find his friends, let themselves be convinced of its benefits. As a five-door version, it is suitable both as a short-.- but also as a long-range vehicle for the small family also: Venga! (Ampnet / nic)
