It's available with manual and automatic transmissions and with a single economical engine. Smartphone integration and a roomy cabin are on the menu for all variants.
The Kia Rio competes in the light hatchback category along with the Suzuki Swift, Volkswagen Polo, Mazda 2, Toyota Yaris and Honda Jazz.
