Kia Besta Engines and Transmissions

Kia Besta engine options include diesels paired with manual transmissions. Selected Minivan examples are the rear-wheel-drive 2.2 D MT and 2.6 D MT, alongside the all-wheel-drive 2.2 D MT 4WD. You select gears to suit the load, while all-wheel drive can help you find traction on loose or slippery surfaces.
