A mid-sized sedan, the Daewoo Leganza is manufactured by GM Daewoo. This vehicle has been manufactured in South Korea which is the area where GM Daewoos headquarters are located. It was also known as the V100 model. It was produced from the year 1997 and manufacture of this vehicle was completely halted in 2002. The spot and niche that this vehicle left blank when its production was stopped was taken over by the Daewoo Magnus.

During its introduction, if you had $13,660, you actually could be able to purchase one Daewoo Leganza for your own. This vehicle was equipped with a 2.2 liter engine with four inline cylinders. This power machine was very much capable of providing the Daewoo Leganza some 131 units of horsepower. To assist this machine in providing this vehicle the power and delivery that its passengers and its driver expects of it, the Daewoo Leganza also comes with an electronically controlled four speed automatic transmission. This sedan holds a wheelbase that measures some 105.1 inches. It is 183.9 inches long, 70.0 inches in width, a height of 56.6 inches, and it also weights 3086 pounds.

People who were able to try out this vehicle, as well as those people who own one Daewoo Leganza claims that this vehicle holds standard equipment and features that are superb in quality, great in supplying comfort and convenience, protective with regards to safety, and are very much functional. The list of this sedans major standard equipment include dual air bags, anti lock brakes, an air conditioning system, a 100 watt AM/FM and cassette stereo, power windows, power locks, and power mirrors.
