Distributor of King Long vehicles in Malaysia, Sendok Group subsidiary R&A Marketing has launched today the 2024 Kingo 6AT and Kingo Plus 6AT passenger vans for the Malaysian market, priced at RM146,265.40 and RM166,265.40 respectively; prices are for company private registration, on-the-road without insurance.
The two variants are differentiated chiefly in their size and passenger count capacity, with the Kingo 6AT being a 15-seater and the Kingo Plus 6AT an 18-seater. This launch introduces the Euro 5 2.4L turbodiesel powertrain with a six-speed automatic transmission to the range, succeeding the 2015 King Long Kingo which was powered by a 144 hp/370 Nm 3.0L turbodiesel and five-speed manual.
The Kingo measures 5,470 mm long, 1,885 mm wide and 2,285 mm tall with a wheelbase of 3,110 mm, with a kerb weight of 2,520 kg (GVW 3,500 kg). The Kingo Plus measures 5,998 mm long, 1,885 mm wide and 2,285 mm tall, with a wheelbase of 3,720 mm, with a kerb weight of 2,730 kg (GVW 4,000 kg). Both variants share the same ground clearance at 169 mm.
Powertrain for both the Kingo and Kingo Plus is a YCY24 2.4 litre inline-four turbodiesel engine with a 16:5 compression ratio and 85 mm x 104 mm bore and stroke dimensions, that produces 145 PS at 2,800 rpm and 400 Nm of torque from 1,400 rpm to 2,000 rpm, driving the rear wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission.
Braking for the Kingo and Kingo Plus are by front disc brakes and rear drum brakes with ABS and EBD, while suspension is handled by double wishbones in front and leaf springs at the back. Wheels are 16-inch units, shod in 215/75R16 tyres front and rear. Both variants also get three-point seat belts on all seats.
Exterior kit includes power-adjustable side mirrors with LED indicators, projector headlamps with daytime running lights, front fog lamps, high-mount third brake lamp, and a demister-equipped rear windscreen.
Interior equipment is closely matched between the 15-seater Kingo and 18-seater Kingo Plus variants – the pink decals on the Kingo Plus are specific to the launch event – with the difference being rear passenger air-conditioner vent count; six vents for the Kingo, and nine for the Kingo Plus. Both variants get double cooling coils for the rear air-conditioning for effective cabin cooling, says CAM.
Standard kit across both includes a 10-inch touchscreen display audio unit with support for Bluetooth, USB and auxiliary audio connectivity, with audio output via six speakers. Rearward vision is augmented by a reversing camera, in addition to reversing sensors.
Both get a tilt-adjustable steering wheel, polyurethane and fabric combination seats, central locking, PVC roof lining and floor mats, powered driver and front passenger windows, anti-glare rear view mirrors, and the three-cupholder centre console.
The King Long Kingo 6AT and Kingo Plus 6AT are sold in Malaysia with a six-year, 200,000 km warranty, with service intervals at 20,000 km. These are also supported by a 24/7 hotline, with free nationwide towing during the vehicle’s warranty period. The King Long Kingo 6AT and Kingo Plus 6AT are assembled locally in Malaysia.

fake hiace also so expensive nowadays?
Since when Hiace ada buat kereta ni? How many seater does Hiace has? Ini King Long sudah lama buat peoples carrier since many decade. Terbaik kereta ni. Low maintenance sebab tak banyak electronic dan spare parts berlambak kat online. Cheaper to maintain this than toyota.
Ni bukan kereta bro. Ini van.
I apologize on behalf of my cytro. He held more weapons than pens so he can’t differentiate a van from a car
Lu baik tukar nama jadi pro-ccp lol

My god! They’re very good at choosing brandnames. Compensating for something short?

Again so expensive no luxury at all.
Missed opportunity. They should’ve named it the King Kong Lingo. Can be used to transport our orangutans to parliament.
What with the pink color theme… including on the steering
King Long mmg legend dari dulu dulu lagi. Crucial transport to boost tourism
Getting a dumb cheap hiace, means a dumb name too
King Long Kingo is a good Pawrn-based wrestler name.
