2012 Kia Rio5 SX

 As in the United States, where about 70 percent of sold new cars are black, landscape of Korea almost exclusively grayscale is white, or silver or grey, the automotive industry. This may be the reason, why the native sees us funny was when we 2012 bright red headed Rio5 from the city of Seoul to the East coast of the country (U.S.-spec, of course). Or maybe it's the speed with which the Red racing by Blitzer KIA a well reported to the next.

 Rio is one of the last courtesy of KIA get a styling overhaul. (The next strong and Sedona will forget until it becomes a full restart continue). This is to share the platform longer and wider and lower Rio 2012 again with the Hyundai Accent, which in turn is stretched and massaged into something more interesting to 2012. The River takes in appearance. And, of course, we prefer that the version of the hatchback is more useful. This helps the Rio5 now we had the chance, example in Korea and here is their four doors in the United States, which have front end ausdrucksvoller.

 Accent and Rio shares drives. You are 1, 1.6 liter four cylinder engine produced 135 HP and the same as the engines of the first area, but with the additional help of direct injection to another 162 lb-ft torque-IT is to create 28 hp and 4 lb-ft two six-speed manual and automatic, that is offered. Rio5s second we drove the Base LX model comes with cars as standard on all but. This is a shame, because our experience with manual focus has shown that, even if no longer meets the floor line, the machine is more interesting and much faster. Rio5 SX, that we takes 9.5 seconds 60 mph compared to 8.0, to emphasize Luke and tested has a manual. For a car, allegedly, we expect the two more athletic, the greatest possible availability of stick, but that seems where the fun ideas and premium butt head.

   
  
Although the efficiency of the technology to undetectable, Rio5 do transformation a bit, if with SX, hard-shell, "tuned" sport chassis and equipped with 17-inch wheels. (SX belongs also the lamp headlamp with LED TFL, LED taillights and Kia Uvo voice activated infotainment systems). While the model KIA SX get loud with wheels and tyres and suspension tweaks, updates is that the update here, keep the Rio5 is a bit more planted. It is still pretty square, although Carver: the Rio5 SX is a bit difficult to recognize who was helped a electric feedback energy efficient by well weighted but not, and some significant suspension roles unsporty the body.

KIA is not released prices for Rio 2012, but when you consider the company ahead of recently a price with a limited budget and marketing strategy, we expect similar sticker with the model of the year. Looking at basic prices less than $15,000, with top SX trim starts at about $18,000
