KBB.com Review
Kbb.com Expert Rating
The 2012 Kia Rio is an inexpensive sub-compact that delivers a great value and superb fuel economy backed by an outstanding warranty.
While the 2012 Kia Rio is a well-rounded car, it doesn’t excel in cargo capacity like the Honda Fit or driving fun like the Ford Fiesta.
