New KIA Rio sedan of the 2019 model year
The trim levels of this model impress with their equipment. In the most budget-friendly "Classic" version, the car offers a reliable engine with a displacement of 1400 cc and a manual transmission. Additional equipment of this version includes convenient adjustments for the driver's seat and steering wheel. This trim also features a quality audio system with decent sound.
Electric front window lifts and heated mirror adjustment, along with air conditioning and electric power steering, distinguish this model. The full list of standard equipment can be viewed on the website, where the new variants are presented.
The "Comfort," "Luxury," "Prestige," and "Premium" trims are not inferior in equipment to more renowned competitors. In the top-of-the-line Premium version, the rich array of additional options stands out. All information from the navigation system, parking sensors, and the rearview camera image are displayed on a 7-inch LCD screen. The interior features high-quality leather upholstery. Also pleasing is the 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine, complemented by a 7-speed automatic transmission.
The updated body has smooth contours and a fairly aggressive look. The signature 16-inch alloy wheels effectively complement the visual perception of the updated KIA Rio model. The increased wheelbase has significantly enlarged the cabin. Three passengers can comfortably sit in the back seat.
Engineers at Kia Motors have paid special attention to the safety of the driver and passengers. Six airbags are supplemented with inflatable curtains located at the front and rear. Anti-lock braking and stability control systems will help fans of aggressive driving feel comfortable on the road.
The updated KIA Rio, with its technical characteristics, confidently outperforms all competitors in its price segment. The reliability and build quality of cars of this brand have always been noted by authoritative automotive publications. And the KIA 2019 model year is full confirmation of that.
