Kia Rio (BC/DC). 1999–2005 (prod. n/a). 4-door sedan, 5-door wagon. F/F, 1343, 1493 cm³ (I4 OHC), 1343, 1493 cm³ (I4 DOHC). Replacement for Pride and Avella, with large development budget. Facelift to SF (supposedly standing for science fiction, because of its “futuristic” looks) in 2002. Sold on price and, in some markets, long warranty, but never that remarkable on performance, handling or refinement measures. Good fuel economy.
