It’s not too often one of these pops up, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Red one.also I think Borrego is one of the best SUV names ever, right up there with Land Cruiser and Excurssion. But alas the world(America) wasn't ready for a full size BOF SUV from Kia.

Kia was about 6 years too early with this one.

There’s a silver V8 model in my old neighborhood. I wish they had made a 2nd gen after Kia started actually making their cars nice.

and 15 years too late.
I’ve seen 2 roaming around Indy. Still look good.

Hyundai/Kia/Genesis should really try again with this. The worst part is that these aren’t terrible. Just nobody bought them.

Well it’s big that's for sure. I gpforget that regular SUVs are stinking huge now. It's pobably comparable to a Tahoe, But bigger than a short wheelbase and shorter than a long wheel base.

They still sell it in some countries but with a facelift and a v6 diesel only.
Hopefully they make this concept into production but it won’t be BOF.

Borrego is a big horned sheep.

I would not mind a production version of that at all.

You’re completely wrong. A GMT900 (07-14) Tahoe is still nearly a foot longer in length, several inches longer and wider. 202" length 79" wide and between 74-77" height vs. the Borrego’s 192" length 75" width and 71" height.
And the Suburban? 222.4"

Confession: I actually really liked these. I thought they were great looking and had the usual Kia ass-kick warranty and were well-equipped.

I would agree

I’ve always found these boring and generic looking. Also, they suffer from my pet peeve of recessed window pillars that are still painted body color when they should be blacked out.

I could see a big SUV in the Genesis line up.

Yea, I mean they are already trying to compete against the e/s class already. Why not complete against the GLC/GLS also?

I was thinking more Lexus LX.

With their 10yr 100k warranty that might make more sense.
