2009 Kia Borrego US Launch Picture

This must make the guys at Hyundai and Kia proud. The new 2009 Borrego SUV has managed a 5-star crash safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Institute. The Borrego received 5-star front and side impact rating for both front and rear seat passengers. It also scored a 4-star rollover rating for both the two and 4-wheel-drive variants. The tech gadgetyry which enabled the Kia Borrego to achieve this include ABS, four wheel disc brakes, traction control, electronic brake distribution, electronic stability control, driver and front passenger airbags, driver and front passenger side airbags, side curtain airbags for all three rows and on V-8 models, a driver’s knee airbag.

With a 5 Star rating the new Borrego is ready to battle it out with competitors for a share of the U.S SUV pie.
