2019 Kia Rio S 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl 6A)

After driving a rental 2019 Kia Rio S for 800 miles (and the 2018 Hyundai Accent version), I thought this car is for me! Even traded a good 2014 Corolla S for it. Now after 11000 miles mileage is outstanding: 45-54 mpg on highway with mountain driving; mixed roads--usually 40 mpg..,down to 35 in city. Transmission--very quick from start and responsive on the road--6 speed auto is just right. Comfortable ride for 4 people. 7 inch screen is the right height to keep eyes up. The readout is clear. The cell phone Blue Tube connect works flawlessly. Cornering is sure and very maneuverable in tight parking lots. LED headlights light up the road ahead very well. The steering wheel-mounted controls are easy to use. Braking is quick and sure--even with drum rear brakes. SiriusXM works well and Kia granted a three month free use with $5/month for the rest of first year. Speakers are excellent and very adjustable. The Continental tires are wearing well. Good safety features including a very informative graphic lines backup camera. I have the 2019 GDI engine with automatic. Why did Kia for 2020 change it to MPI and CVT transmission? Kia a good thing going in the 2019 setup! I tried the 2020 model and it seemed as responsive driving with 8 shifts in CVT.
