KIA MOTORS AMERICA ANNOUNCES NAME OF NEW MIDSIZE SUV
 
First Kia Midsize SUV Will Make World Debut at Detroit Auto Show
 
IRVINE, Calif., November 6, 2007 – Kia Motors America (KMA) today announced it will give its new midsize SUV the moniker of “Borrego” when it debuts in January at the Detroit Auto Show. The Kia Borrego will be manufactured in Korea and go on sale in North America in late spring or early summer of 2008 as a 2009 model.
 
Built with body-on-frame construction incorporating the latest in NVH engineering philosophy, Borrego will be Kia’s newest addition to its well-rounded full-line of vehicles that continually provide value, safety and a steadfast 10-year/100,000-mile warranty to consumers.

Sharp design; V8 option.
 
Not related to the Hyundai Veracruz; just like the Sorento is not related to the Hyundai Santa Fe

You're close. It's actually goat in Spanish. I wonder if they knew this before naming it.

I read in a press release it was actually named after a desert state park in California.

Chevrolet had a concept off-road truck called Borrego. See http://www.conceptcarz.com/vehicle/z2580/Chevrolet_Borrego/default.aspx

And that state park was named due to the fact there were lots of goats there.

Kia Mohave/Borrego brochure by batman47
Nov 18, 2007 (3:55 am)

Could someone in this forum help me to obtain a Kia Mohave brochure or a PDF file in Korean language? I understand that the Mohave/Borrego will be sold in Korea from January 2008 and I assume that such a brochure or PDF file will be readily available to Korean customers. Help highly appreciated.
