What is the Kia Mohave?
The Mohave is Kia’s large SUV, developed for markets where a substantial, family-oriented utility vehicle has a place in the range. It is also known as the Borrego in North America. Kia has a long history as a vehicle maker, and the Mohave reflects the brand’s expansion from passenger cars into larger SUVs. Its name appears in official European registration figures for a small number of vehicles.
European registration figures
The European Economic Area registration listing records 36 Mohaves in 2010. They are grouped under the fuel category “other”, rather than petrol, diesel or hybrid, so the registration figure does not identify a specific engine or power output. It also does not provide an official fuel-consumption or CO₂ value for these vehicles.
Where was it sold?
The Mohave name was used in Europe, while Kia used Borrego in North America. The European figure is specific to EEA registrations in 2010; it should not be read as a complete account of the model’s sales in other countries. Official consumption figures depend on the market and test procedure: European cars may be measured under NEDC or WLTP, US ratings use EPA testing, and Canadian ratings use the 5-cycle procedure.
