Kia Rio
The Kia Rio is positioned between the Kia Picanto and Cerato, and goes head-to-head with more expensive competitors such as the Mazda 2 and Toyota Yaris in a dwindling market segment. It's available in S, Sport, and GT-Line variations.
Base models Kia Rio's have a 1.4-litre petrol engine with six-speed manual or automatic transmissions, while the flagship gets a three-cylinder turbo with a dual-clutch auto and seven forward gears.
While it lacks edgy design and is decent rather than sporty to drive, the Kia Rio comes relatively well-equipped and gets a long warranty.
