2007 Kia Rio

This new version of the Kia Rio is considerably roomier than previous models. The 2007 Kia Rio has the ability to seat five passengers. It comes equipped with side airbags as a standard feature and anti lock brakes are an option. Kia has become considerably more diligent in its overall safety equipment included in its lineup of cars.

The 2007 Kia Rio is perfect for a family on a relatively tight budget. Its purchase price is little more than $14000 and with a few options it will hardly be more than that. Its major attraction is the gas mileage that it promises. With a tight budget getting more mileage from a $4 gallon of gas can make or break a budget.

It is a decent car well worth looking into if this is what you are in the market for. It looks good and can get you from point a to point b and sometimes that is all that is important.

2006 Kia Rio

In 2006, Kia decided that the tiny Rio should be made a bit bigger. The redesigned Rio is considerably bigger than its previous version and it claims to have a roomier interior than the Honda Civic and the Toyota Corolla.

Consumers looking for fuel economy will love the 2006 Kia Rio. It is a very fuel-efficient vehicle, offering approximately 30 miles per gallon and modestly priced around $15,000.

The Rio offers a remarkably luxurious interior with plenty of room for passengers and cargo for a vehicle of its size. The 2006 Kia Rio provides drivers with a great commuter vehicle at a low price.
