Kia Rio 2001 Review Highlights Practical Subcompact Drive
The 2001 Kia Rio with a 1.5 liter four cylinder and 96 horsepower proves nimble in city traffic and capable on highways. It offers a four speed automatic with overdrive, fuel economy of 25 city and 31 highway, and modest trunk space. Ride quality is acceptable though noisy, with independent MacPherson front suspension and a rear torsion axle. Options such as air conditioning and an AM FM cassette add cost, while prices remain competitive against Daewoo Lanos and Suzuki Swift. Consumer reliability rating not yet provided due to Rio’s new model status.
