Question 1

What is the difference between Kia's MPI, GDI and T-GDI engines?

Accepted Answer

MPI engines, such as the older Picanto's 1.0 and 1.2, use simpler port injection; GDI means direct injection, and T-GDI adds a turbocharger. That is how the 1.0 T-GDI three-cylinder pulls like a larger engine.

Question 2

How much road tax does a used petrol Kia pay in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

For a car first registered from 2001 it is CO₂ × 0.6 × a band factor, on the NEDC figure before 2021 and the WLTP one from 2021. A petrol Kia at 100 g/km pays €36 a year, and one at 150 g/km €99.

Question 3

Which used petrol Kias are mild hybrids?

Accepted Answer

Since the early 2020s the 1.0 T-GDI in the Rio, Stonic and Ceed and the 1.6 T-GDI in the Sportage have come as 48-volt mild hybrids, badged MHEV or EcoDynamics+. The small electric motor assists the engine but cannot drive the car on its own.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

The Picanto 1.0 GDI with a manual or AMT, the K4 hatchback and Sportswagon with a 1.0 or 1.6 T-GDI, the Stonic 1.0 T-GDI and the Sportage 1.6 T-GDI with a manual or DCT. Each version is listed at its official list price.
