Used 2007 Kia Rio Consumer Reviews
Not Just a Sporty Economy Car
Just sit in one. This model has a nice sporty interior. Leather wrapped steering wheel and shifter. Sport stitched seating. The exterior is sporty with a unique look not to be mistaken for all the other models out there in it's class. Though it's not going to win any races, it is fun to drive. It handles well and sticks to the road. It's a compact car, so the ride is a little bumpy. It has front and side front airbags as standard safety equipment.
Decent budget car
This is one of the better budget cars. Decent gas mileage at a greatly affordable price. I'm 6'1" and have no problem fitting in. With the leadfoot I have my gas is still 32 mpg. The problem I have is the power. It can not pull its own weight up a hill without having to downshift even at 65 mph and at lower speeds on a hill it searches for a gear constantly.

Still Shaking My Head in Disbelief
I bought my 2007 Kia Rio LX with 277,000+ k, for what can only be called beater money. So, it can only be surmised, I wasn't expecting much. Imagine my shock when I discovered just what a gem I had stumbled across. Other than a slight stumble at idle, the engine runs smoothly and accelerates as effortlessly as you could want from a four cylinder sewing machine. Automatic transmission shifts smoothly and accurately, steering is crisp, and braking is straight and even. All electrical work. The seats are comfortable. I have to say, I'm loving this little car
