I just bought a 2023 kia rio s in the currant red color on the 22 of January I will say I love it like how I love my 2022 rio lx I just putted 550 miles on my 23 rio it’s doing great I believe it will be reliable as my 2022 rio lx has 7,000 miles I have never had a problem with my 2022 rio so I hope both cars keep being reliable as the mileage increases and I like that my 23 rio has a armrest and keyless entry and folding seats and no it does not have the technology package update my 2023 Kia Rio s has 8,600 miles it’s been reliable interior is easy to clean and cheap to maintain my other 2022 Kia Rio lx has held up very well after 2 years and 15,000 miles and it’s been very reliable my car kias have been the most reliable cars I’ve owned out of all the cars I’ve owned totally recommend checking out a Rio

The dealer did not add a "market inflation cost" which in my term is gouging. Purchased at the end of month. Some dealers need to move vehicles and may apply a small discount. I found it difficult to find a RIO locally. I went out of state. I went with the S Model because I wanted a specific color. The model was not pushed onto me. Competitors models in this size came with additional options with no added cost. But lacked in the warranty protection. I have owned other KIA products without issues. I experienced hitting a deer at high speed with my past KIA vehicle. It did very well keeping me safe. I feel safe in this model. Has just enough room and storage for golf clubs. It doesn't feel like a compact car. Fuel saving is great over 44 mile per gal highway. Nothing fancy, road noise acceptable, ride is firm which I like, easy to clean. I'm not a fan of extended oil changes. So I will be doing maintenance sooner. I would buy again. The warranty gives your investment a safe piece of mind. It is still a new vehicle for a fair price. Other models and dealers charge for this type of warranty.

I bought the S model sedan. I bought it for basic transportation and it weems good for that. I have been driving a 2006 kia spectra for 13 years and got my money's worth out of it.I have just had it for one day, but am pleased with it. I don't have high expectations for it, but it will meet my needs for some years to come. I am pleased with it. If you are used to driving bigger cars that drive smoother and have more luxuries, you might find it lacking, but for me it is a good car. The price was very affordable. The used Kias rios are sell for higher prices than the new ones.

Just purchased a 2023 Kia Rio and have less than 600 miles on it. Today I locked car with FOB and two hours later FOB would not unlock it. I replaced the battery (even though it was new) and FOB still did not work. I was able to start the car but the horn blared and shows low tire pressure light and trunk open light (even though it was closed). Drove home and got my spare FOB and that one did not work either. Though maybe programing, so youtubed and tried the suggestions for programing and still nothing. The only thing working is headlights, A/C and radio (digital screen) Inside overhead lights, door locks and windows do not work. Any thoughts on the problem? Taking back to dealership on Monday.
