Best new car I have ever owned.

I love how it handles. Its got great get up and go. I love the economy feature for better gas. Its roomy and comfortable. Nice big trunk. Only one minor sensor glitch, but the dealership handled it right away ans with ease, no hassles. It feels like a oart of the family. :-D

Most reliable car great performance

The car is very reliable, love it. I recommend this car to anyone. It is very comfortable to drive and the interior design is very nice. Drives perfect. Gas mileage is wonderful saves me money big time. I have had no maitence problems since I have bought it brand spanking new when it only had 11 miles. Best is Tacoma Car Pros is the best to go to buy a car and will work with you to make sure you are taken care of.

So far so good

First time owning a Kia. It is a secondary car used by our son, but has been reliable for around town and long distances. I recommend for a starter car for young adults just starting to drive. Keep it maintained and it will good to you. The only down side is it is hard to do your own maintenance.

Love my Kia Rio!

I love my Kia Rio that we bought from Taylor Kia. I have driven it for 1.5 years and it still feels brand new. It has such a smooth ride, especially for a small car, and handles well in all road conditions. I'm a larger person and still find it has plenty of room to fit my needs. My husband also enjoys driving it. I wish I new more technical aspects of cars, but what I know is that you'll love it too!

best car I have ever owened

Great car, very economic and drives well in the city and hightway. Very easy to maintain and Kia provides great service. The car has bluetooth, and wheel controls, which makes it very comfortable for long drives, which I take often. I had no problems with the car, it is highly recomended.

Best car I've ever owned

I adore this car; great on gas, dependable, cute, and the services are very reasonable at the dealer. Warranty is fantastic! I have nothing bad to say about mu Rio. I owned a pre-owned 2003 Kia Rio years ago, and I loved it too. It would probably still be doing fine, if someone hadn't hit me and totalled it. After looking at the car post-wreck, it's obvious I would have been really injured, if the air bag and seat belt hadn't done such a good job.All I had was a burn from the belt, across my shoulder and chest. The man that hit me had to be taken to the hospital.
