Kia 6 berth Motorhome for 66,000 US Dollars (how much would it be if it ever gets to the UK?)

[Gerby]

Not sure if this has been on here before but the spec and price "look" as good as I have ever seen, shame it isn't available here (and probably never will be)

 

[MisterB]

he seemed really upset/surprised they have manual windows .... did i spot a Thetford toilet?

it does look good for the money - all KIA need to do is to put the steering wheel on the correct side ..... because at that price they would rip through the UK market .....

there does seem to be some areas other manufacturers could learn from ...

 

[fat haggis]

It looked rather nice to me. He didn’t know the toilet head swivels. That got a giggle . Nice van

Is it destined for the Japanese market? Then with any luck it should wash up here in a decade or so time! Steering wheel on the right side too!

Cheers James

 

[Just smiffy]

Good spec good price and seems to be well made….

Our local Kia garage seems to be shared with Ford and they have a few motor homes (different makes) on their forecourt.
I wonder if it’s the start of something?

 

[Jamesh]

No through access from cab to habitation that's the biggy for me!

The toilet should swivel I think!

Not enough sockets either or LEDs!!!!

Too many remotes to go missing!!

Cheers James

It could well be, and not for the US market.... Hookup is 230v, not 120v

I reckon in America, with USA electrics, it would sell as a day van.... Not big enough to be a touring van for the them

I would point out that anything for sale in US$ in the USA invariably does not include
State and local Sales Taxes.

Using the exchange rate of $1.33 to the £ (and I know I'm being generous to the US currency)
That $66000 comes back at £49500 and then VAT would need to be added making it a near £60,000 vehicle.

Very short wheelbase with big overhang won't be able to store much in the back, looks like it's based on a minibus.
Doubt it will ever be imported here those Asian minibuses with the engine mid cab don't meet European safety standards for front crash protection.

If its $66000 new in the usa then about £100,000 at the dealer in uk after all the import and tax
The 2021 mustang is almost double the $ price in the uk

It reminds me of a Bedford Rascal . Never fancied driving one of those !

They were a rebadged Asian van.

Looks good to me. Presentation was good as well. Taxes on top depending on which state you live in. So around 80000 $

I live in a State of perpetual bewilderment.
Will it be cheaper there?

I just loved the push down table for the bed, definitely like the pull out step
