Kia Borrego EX V8 Review



For those of you who read my review of the Kia Borrego EX powered by the 3.8 liter 6-cylinder and said "I want a V8", well...they make one.

For the life of me, I can't tell much of a difference between the engines in terms of power and performance. Fuel economy won't help you choose, either...the V8 is only 1 mile per gallon thirstier than the V6 (dropping to an EPA estimated 15 city/20 highway).

About the only difference I can see is that the 8 costs more...a $3,000 difference. Drive 'em both. If it were my money, I'd take the six.
