Kia Spectra - Well Engineered Car At Low Cost

The compact car remained under the manufacturing process for almost nine years. Every year we saw some modifications in it, and those made it more valuable every year. Only in few years it was sidelined by the competitors who offer better package in the same price, otherwise Kia Spectra had all the qualities to be preferred among others.

 

The low cost for the well-engineered car of the Kia Spectra has always be the prime reason why it enjoyed good sales over the years. Kia has made sure to supply enough equipment and supplies to make sure that it scores great in reliability in almost every criteria, it could be examined.
Kia’s forward approach of engineering and customization of an automobile was completely exposed in this car. The durability and smoothness in operations has remained unaffected over the years. Kia Spectra 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006 and 2005 are the most popular models of this car.

When we started looking for used Kia Spectra, there were different models available in the used car market. And from various different models, our pick is Kia Spectra from 2003 that shared most of the specifications with its previous and forward models. Kia Spectra before this model had tried hard to have some attention from the compact car buyers. So the fans of Civic and Corolla were attracted with roomier interiors and better equipment. Let us inspect what makes this model a good choice.

 

Power train

Let us start with the engine that was revised this year. The basic configuration that was inline 4 since always remained the same however other enhancing factors increased the power. The 1.8L engine was available in the base model with power output of 124hp @ 6000rpm and torque rate 119ft-lbs @ 4900rpm. The 16 valve engine was mated with a manual transmission option of 5-speed.

 

Kia Spectra Exterior

The basic design idea used in the Kia Spectra in 2003 is very much identical to the previous models and with some competitors too. The exterior dimensions were found close to most of the competitor cars that were born in that age. The noticeable change was already made in the previous year and that was redone headlights. The rear defogger and intermittent wipers are the new ones that were added to the Kia Spectra in year 2003.

 

Interiors of Kia Spectra

As mentioned above, the interior features of the car enjoyed most ads on to enhance the spaciousness in the car. The driver seat with manual adjustment and lumbar support is not the only option as the comfort ability. The height adjustment in the driver’s seat is an extra that comes for the driver in this car. In the rear cabin the back of the seats can be split.

 

The convenience options are raised by making buckets available for the front seats and there is a lot more to make the front passengers happier. There is front console with storage, cup holders in the front, remote trunk release, speed proportional steering, front power outlet of 12V and front door pockets as well. However the rear passengers may feel a bit neglected as even the reading lights are available in the front section only. There is a trunk light also available.

 

Safety Features

Safety equipment is very attractive for the reasonable Kia Spectra price that you may pay. There are child seat anchors, front seatbelt pretensioners, interior trunk release, front headrests (adjustable), rear drum brakes and ventilated front disc, rear center lap belt and child safety locks.
All of this and economic performance of this car makes it a well suited choice for a small price.
