The 2015 Kia Rio, part of the third generation of the model, is a petite yet capable subcompact car available in both sedan and hatchback variants. All trims are powered by a 1.6L I4 that pushes 138 horsepower, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission driving the front wheels. Trim options include the LX, EX, and SX, each offering a progressively upgraded list of standard features. The base LX edition includes basic functionality like air conditioning, a four-speaker sound system, and a 60/40 split-folding rear seat, while the top-line SX variant boasts a rearview camera, keyless ignition, leather seating, and a sport-tuned suspension. In terms of tech, it offers Bluetooth, a 4.3" touch screen, and SiriusXM satellite radio, with UVO eServices available on higher trims. Notably, it also scored highly in safety tests thanks to features like anti-lock brakes, stability control, and multiple airbags.
