Seriously Love it. Big trunk...holds all the groceries. Big enough screen I can see the maps.

I bought my Kia Rio S (no technology package) back in November 2023 with only 5 miles on it, it now has 6,800 miles on it and I’ve not had any issues whatsoever as far as mechanical or electrical. It is a small car but at the time of getting this car I just wanted something that got good gas mileage and it has most definitely delivered on that. I, however, do have things I dislike about it such as I don’t feel like the speakers are very loud, hot air still blows when the heater is off and AC still blows when the AC is off, it’s just a little weird to me but it’s not that big of a deal, and the only other thing that bothers me is that it is extremely easy to be blown around on the interstate, that does make me nervous sometimes especially when driving on very windy days or during storms. For the most part I do love this car but I do plan on trading it in soon to get a Honda HRV. Overall, I don’t think this car is a bad car by any means, she’s a great commuter and would be great for someone who just wants a reliable, affordable, and gas friendly car. Full coverage insurance on it for a 25 year old is also more than reasonable.

Paid cash gor my brand new 2023 Kia Rio S at the local World Car Kia dealership in July of 2023, they offered free lifetime drivetrain warranty. Have had no issues, except for being vandalized in October 2023, they TRIED to steal but only damaged the steering column. It has given me no problems. My only regret isn't the fault of the car. I should have purchased a Sportage or something similar due to it sitting so low, at the time I had no issue getting in the car, but have developed issues with nuclear stiffness. Mechanically no issues, and it has surprising relatively spacious interior and trunk space.

I’ve had this car for about 3 months. I have zero complaints when it comes to this little subcompact. As far as looks goes, I think it’s pretty sharp and modern looking, especially if you get the tech package with LED headlights. I got the Sporty Blue color and it really stands out. The CVT transmission is seamless. The gas milage is phenomenal. I am in my first two years of driving, and bought this car with traveling from college to home (about a 2 hour drive) and I have no worries about it. If you’re a new driver or someone who isn’t worried about the prettiest or fanciest interior, and are looking for a cheap car that gets the job done AND THEN some, this car is excellent.
