Kia Rio is launching on 30th Jan !

 "Through design, the Kia brand will become etched in customers' hearts" quoted from Peter Schreyer, the Chief Creative Designer of Kia and also the President of Kia. After the involvement of Peter Schreyer in the design of Kia's cars, we are able to see plenty of Kia's cars that are capable of inducing the head-turn syndrome when they pass by. He also transformed the dull looking 2nd generation Kia Rio into an attractive looking 3rd generation Rio!

 Launching in Malaysia on 30th of January, the Rio will be equipped with a 1.4 litres MPI Gamma engine which produces 109PS and 136Nm of torque, mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission. For a B-segment car, the Rio is considered as large with a wheelbase of 2570mm and a boot space of 288 litres. It's also 1720mm wide, 4045mm long and 1455mm tall.


 The Kia Rio will be available in two variants - EX and SX. Both will receive daytime LED running lights, tilt/telescopic steering column, leather wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, Bluetooth, aluminium pedals, ISOFix, six airbags and Vehicle Stability Management (VSM) as standard. The more expensive SX will get front fog lights, sunroof, Smart Key with push start button, 'Supervision cluster' instrument panel and auto air-con with ionizer.

Kia Rio is a very well equipped car and will be competitive if the pricing is right. Hopefully the pricing will falls around RM70k for the EX to make it more affordable to first time car buyer.

Many will love this model because of its sleek and fashionable design. I bet the maintenance will also be cheaper compared to usual models.

Michael: THe design is contemporary, appealing to people from any age!

Beverly C. Mumford said...

The design of that car reminds me of my favourite journal notebook. I really love that type of design. I think I should consider buying that car now that I need one.

Daryl Pike said...

The 2013 rio looks a lot sportier than its predecessor. I'd love to see it running around, just to check if it's a major improvement over the previous releases.

SiMon Har said...

Beverly: Haha, check it out before you decide ya!

Daryl: Indeed, much more better looking than its predecessor.

Steve Howard said...

I'm guessing the newer rio has a slightly amped-up torque rating, eh? That means additional reinforcing on the clamps and latches to keep up with the extra power.
