The Kia Pegas ( Chinese: 起亚焕驰; pinyin: Qǐyà Huànchí) is an entry subcompact sedan ( B-segment) manufactured in China by the Dongfeng Yueda Kia joint venture. It is sold under the Pegas nameplate in China, Africa and parts of the Middle East, and as the Kia Soluto in parts of Latin America and Southeast Asia.
The Kia Pegas made its debut at the 2017 Auto Shanghai. Based on the PB platform used in the Kia K2 and targeted at young buyers, the Pegas stands on a 2,570 mm (101.2 in) wheelbase and has a trunk capacity of 475 liters.
