Kia K2500 – the 2.5-tonne platform truck based on the Bongo, TCI diesel engine, 69 kW, 1,660 to 2,780 kg unladen weight, up to 3,200 kg gross weight
This collective page gathers versions of the Kia K2500, the export designation of the Kia Bongo for platform and box-body trucks in the roughly 2.5-tonne payload class. The Bongo has been the South Korean maker Kia's light commercial vehicle since the 1980s and is sold in Europe and Latin America, depending on the market, under designations such as K2500, K2700 or K3000, which name the respective payload class; the models captured, K2500, K2500 2.5 TCI, K2500 2.5 TCI DC, K2500 TCI and K2500/TCI/SK/TREKKING, also show the double-cab DC variant and the Trekking trim aimed at export.

The register lists here five versions with 69 kW from a 2.5-litre four-cylinder turbodiesel, unladen weights from 1,660 to 2,780 kg, gross weights from 2,880 to 3,200 kg, a length of 5,140 mm and widths from 1,740 to 1,850 mm.
The K2500 is aimed at trades, agriculture and municipal operations looking for a robust, easy-to-maintain platform truck with manageable running costs, and competes with comparable models from Hyundai and light trucks from European makers.
On a used example, check rust on the platform, frame and wheel arches, the condition of the turbodiesel and injection pump, wear of the leaf springs under load, and on double-cab models the seal of the second seat row; parts run through the Kia dealer network.
