If you’re looking for an attractive subcompact city runabout that blends good fuel economy with lots of value, the 2019 Kia Rio deserves attention. It fits with ease in snug parking spots, it boasts Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, it’s available with autonomous emergency braking, and it has a fantastic powertrain warranty.
If your primary focus is fuel economy, you might want to look elsewhere. The Rio gets 28 mpg in the city and 37 on the highway, which is good, but not up to the level of some competitors. Nor is there a hybrid or an electric Rio.
