Kia Rio 1.0 T GDi 118 GT-Line 5dr Petrol Hatchback

Gone are the days when Kia sold low-cost cars. Nowadays, value is the most important word, so a Rio wont be the cheapest new small car you can buy. The diesel that so impressed us with its economy and CO2 figures at launch has since been dropped, but that fits with general industry trends towards smaller and more economical petrol engines in this sector of the market. The most advanced of those the turbocharged 1.0-litre will do mid-50s mpg according to its official combined figure but the rest of the range isnt far behind either. When it comes to overall running costs, expect the Rio to be broadly similar to its main rivals in areas like depreciation, servicing and repair. The Rio has an impressive amount of safety equipment available, and whats perhaps most impressive is that it comes as standard on pretty much every model. The only major exception is that the Autonomous Emergency Braking and Lane Departure Warning systems are optional on the most basic trim level. A blind spot alert system is only offered on the top of the range model, too. Otherwise like the entire range these models come with six airbags, ABS, stability control, and Isofix child seat mountings.
