KAI RIO
KAI RIO
The eager 1.6-liter engine has more than enough power for passing slower trucks, although most of the power can be felt in the higher-rpm range. We were surprised at how comfortable the car rides considering its small size, but the soft ride doesn’t compromise its handling abilities. In sorting out the suspension, Kia’s engineers used the Ford Fiesta as their benchmark to ensure some sporty footwork and, while we can say they got pretty close, we can’t say they exceeded it. The 2012 Kia Rio is agile and confident in the turns but, in the overall sense, we wouldn’t equate it to the same athletic feel as the Ford Fiesta or Mazda2. Aside from the driving dynamics, we’re happy to report that even after two straight hours of driving, the Rio was just as pleasant as when we first stepped foot inside. The seats are comfortable and only minimal road noise could be detected, another pleasant surprise for a car in this class.
