If you’re looking for a small and inexpensive sedan or hatchback that is efficient, practical and offers long-term peace of mind thanks to a stellar warranty, put the Rio on your shopping list. Want all that plus leather interior and a slick infotainment system? This little Kia offers that, too.
If you’re seeking fuel economy that reaches 40 mpg or more, look to the Chevy Sonic, Nissan Versa Note, Ford Fiesta EcoBoost, or the Honda Fit, which also has a larger, more flexible cargo bay. If nimble driving manners top your wish list, check out the Sonic or Mazda Mazda2.
