Kia Rio5 2007

Kia Rio5 2007

Subcompact > Kia
By Benjamin Cyr - (2007-05-18)

A small car not too shabby on the eyes, with a satisfying interior finish for this category and a more than affordable price: The second generation Kia Rio5 makes a debut in 2007. Unfortunatly, this won’t be an easy task since it clashes against the dependable Toyota Yaris, dynamic Honda Fit and the very roomy Nissan Versa.

The Rio5 will be a rational choice for consumers who are looking for a small affordable car that offers enough room for 4 people and with a long warranty. But when compared with the Fit or the Yaris, it’s less fun to drive and doesn’t get better gas mileage. You can buy the Rio5 for 1000 $ less than the Yaris or the Fit… hum something to think about...
