2009 Kia Rio consumer reviews

I bought this back in 2009 and since we have Changed the battery and wheels that's it over 400k miles. Never broke down even though I have a new car it is still constantly being used. Great car 100% recomend

The car is reliable and fuel efficient and fairly comfortable. It also handles well and is fun to drive. I have the 5 speed LX

There is more cons than pros with this car. Fuel injectors went out at 45,000 to 50,000. I had to replace 4-6 sets of coils and spark plugs within a year. I replaced the whole evap system, including the Fuel Sensor at 65,000. Luckily, I know about cars. This one was given to me as a gift. Main use is to go back and forth to work.

Parents bought the car new in 2010 and I bought it off them with 110k miles In 2018. I’ve since put 100k miles on it for work and it still runs like a new car. Only problem I have is poor gas mileage (250miles per tank on a long trip) and that’s probably due to 17” wheels and a straight pipe exhaust (sounds pretty decent tbh) I love this car and incase this engine goes I already have another one sitting at home in the basement. Only downside of the car is the manual gear box needs better gearing or at least a 6th gear

Great deal, car was worth the price and would be a privilege to own. One time payment. Heat and AC worked perfectly fine. Should look into it

This car is excellent it never experienced any maintenance issues and is amazing with gas. This car met all of my needs and drives like a dream. It has plenty of space and has no issues the whole time i owned it.

It was not an expensive car and is reliable and few issues with it. Going on 200,000 miles. Would recommend. It is a good, small, travel car.

Spacious (seats 4 comfortably), quick (zips around traffic), practical (back seats fold and allows for large continuos storage area to be created in conjunction with trunk space), cool (burnt orange color with rear spoiler).

This car is nice. I am having fun driving it. I am jused to a Jeep or an Explorer. They werrrrrre both a lot bigger than the Rio. However, the best thing (so far) is the gas mileage. I have only put gas into it once so far, and it is still almost full.
