Kia – other models: the collective page outside the named ranges, from the K2500/K2700/K2900 commercial vehicles to passenger cars with commercial registration, three- to six-cylinders of 1.0 to 3.5 litres
This page gathers the Kia vehicles the register could not assign to a named range – the South Korean maker founded in 1944 as a bicycle-parts factory, which came under the Hyundai Motor Group in 1998 and has since developed passenger cars and light commercial vehicles in parallel. The stock includes on one hand the classic Kia commercial vehicles K2500, K2700 and K2900, based on the Bongo platform not sold under its own name in Europe and offered as flatbed and panel-van bodies, plus the older, Mazda-based minibus Besta; on the other hand there are regular Kia passenger ranges such as the Sorento, Carnival, Ceed or Rio, which in some countries are carried with commercial registration as a light commercial vehicle.

The register lists here 40 versions with 49.3 to 125 kW from three- to six-cylinders of 998 to 3,500 cm³, unladen weights from 974 to 2,920 kg, gross weights from 1,400 to 3,240 kg, lengths from 3,595 to 5,190 mm and widths from 1,595 to 2,270 mm.
Kia is today one of the world's largest carmakers; in the light-commercial segment the brand competes in Europe above all through the K range against sister Hyundai models and Asian rivals such as Isuzu and Mitsubishi Fuso.
On used examples of the K commercial vehicles, rust on flatbed and frame, the condition of clutch and diesel injection count; on the passenger-based models, the usual checks such as suspension, automatic transmission and wiring apply; parts run through the dense Kia dealer network.
