Used Car Review - Kia Rio (2000-2005)
Car Choices:
There is no other option when going with the Rio sedan. A 1.3 4-cylinder that churns out 82hp is standard. Paired with a manual transmission, it shows its limitations when driven hard and road imperfections are transmitted to the shifter and the pedals.
The sole variant is basic in the sense it only packs power steering, a cassette player, and steel rims. Head to the hatchback if you want a fully equipped Rio.
