The New Kia Rio

Head-turning exterior

From the muscular front bumper with integrated ice-cube LED fog lamps, stunning contoured radiator grille and full LED headlamps, to the rear bumper with twin muffler – the Rio GT-Line S shouts style and adventure. Add to that, exclusive 17" alloy wheels, side-sill styling and you have a car that leaves others behind.

Mild Hybrid Powertrain

The new Kia Rio features an advanced mild hybrid powertrain, giving you low-emission everyday driving. By pairing the latest 1.0 T-GDi gasoline engine with a 48-volt lithium-ion battery, it can reduce fuel consumption levels. What’s more, the integrated ‘e-system’ recovers kinetic energy during deceleration phases to provide torque assistance when accelerating. (Available on the '3' and 'GT-Line S' grades)

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)

Warns about potential hazards, protects if needed. Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)⁷ on the new Kia Rio comprises a radar on the front bumper and camera on the windscreen to check for upcoming hazards such as pedestrians, cyclists or other cars. Should it detect something, it warns you and brakes automatically if necessary, to help avoid or mitigate an accident. (Standard on '2' upwards, optional on '1')
