2018 Kia Rio 5-Door - Test Drive

It may be Kia's smallest vehicle, but the Rio has big aspirations for the showroom.

(The segment originally aired on Motoring TV 2018 Episode #4)

A real advantage of the hard plastic interior parts, is that it is very easy to clean, in a very short time.

One thing you failed to mention (unless I just missed it entirely) is the Rio is the ONLY car in the segment that offers a heated steering wheel - and that the heated front seats and steering wheel are STANDARD, even on the lowest base trim. It's an incredible value in this segment, and hopefully going to be parked in my driveway by fall. I had an '03 Rio RX-V when it was new ... and boy, has Kia come a long way since then.

A small car I can actually get excited about that doesn't cost $30, 000.

Hard touch interior plastics are not a make or break I bet they figured that.

I wish they would give us this car in the US along with manual transmission in the higher trim

Why can’t US get good looking entry level cars with led drl
