I like my 2020 Kia Rio, on every trip from Florida to Detroit Michigan, I set the cruise control on 70MPH the car gets between 55-62 miles a gallon of gas, on the i-95, i75 ect. In town never less than 38 MPG

Traded my soul in almost 3 yrs ago, I thought I'd never have another SEDAN again but I love this car it's perfect for me and the gas mileage is awesome, went to Florida and trip was almost 1600 miles on $120, now that was awesome

Perfect car but mine has a small electrical issue

The car is perfect, great on gas, has sport mode and looks good. My only issue is that mine failed to crank 3 times since I've owned it. I bought it in July of 2021. But this issue is nothing a fully charged battery jump box won't fix. That's why I keep mine fully charged in my trunk at all times. I have 88,000 miles on mine. Also, my speakers blew in February 2025. Taking it to the dealership at the end of the month to get that serviced. I ride with my music basically on full blast 24/7 so no hard feelings here.
