2012 Kia Rio5

Its not a Honda or Toyota
I purchased my Kia Rio 5 brand new on their release November 2011. I was commuting from Sudbury to Parry Sound weekly and the advertised fuel economy is what sold me on the car. Well dont be fooled with advertised fuel economy. The only time you will hit close to it is driving 80kmh on a flat smooth road with the wind at your back. The best average |I have seen is 6.6 litres per 100km. That was not using the cruise control and never going above 105kmh. Dont bother using the cruise control with the automatic as it constantly downshifts harshly on any slight incline. Sure you can lock it in six gear with the sport shift, however you will notice your rpm will increase by 500rpm when you turn the cruise on. So there is a loss of fuel economy right there. The dash has had an annoying rattle since second week of ownership and kia could not fix. Had to change rear brake pads and rotors and new pads on front at 30000km which I found unacceptable for a car that did 90% travel on highway 69. I also find it unacceptable in this day and age not to have a engine coolant temp gauge. On the plus side, its got plenty of power, a nice interior with lots of usefull options standard. However the so called heated wipers are a joke. All in all its a cheap car to buy with a long list of standard options. Just remember, its not a Honda or Toyota so dont expect the fit and finish quality to be there. However, its a better option than a fiesta or sonic.

excellent fuel efficient car!
2012 kia rio5 is an excellent subcompact that feels and drives similar to a toyota corolla. I have been a rental guy for 2 yrs when we go out of town, and I can't believe how smooth the handling was with the new rio when I test drove it. the steering was very responsive. I also love the new exterior and and updated interior layout.

great economy car
We bought this car new and so far have been impressed. It has great features for a economy car; i really like the bluetooth stereo, the heated seats are theraputic and the heated side mirrors are a nice safety function.
So far- so good!
