2012 Kia Rio

[jojomonsalud]

Oo nga pala may taxi variant yung avanza na kapresyo ng vios. Mas bagay na taxi yun. Ewan ko nga lang kung bakit di nagclick.

If maglabas yung kia ng rio na pang taxi, like the new accent, mabenta yun sigurado. Gwapo na mga taxis natin dito

marami ko nakikita na avanza na ginawa taxi tapos improvised yung upuan sa likod pinapagkasya pa din nila 10 persons parang fx pero sobra sikip sa likod

[desert fox]

Cause the Avanza looks like an FX na pamasada. Malaki kasi.

And because it looks like one, people looking for a taxi wont hail them. Kaya kita mo most of Avanza taxis has this sign sa windshield or glass nila " TAXI PO ITO "

You know, people around cant cope up easily with the changes happening around. Gusto nila parating old-school. Kaya kung ang kinalakihan nila eh sedan ang taxi, it should stay that way.

umm, mabuti na lang, otherwise hirap kumuha ng driver nyan.

[aargh]

Its out!

[foifoi05]

whoa!!! didnt saw that coming!!!!

:eek

i have to admit im 50/50 on the outcome of the china version, though it looks like an Optima, but it kinda didnt work for me with the tall proportions

[AG4]

Kakalito naman! So anong Rio ang sa atin?

Well the K2 is not a Rio, its a China-market Kia, I guess thats a hint.
We'll most likely get the Rio sedan coz its a Rio.


With the popularity of the Fiesta hatchback, I wonder if Columbian Autocar Corporation will bring in the Rio hatchback here.


PS: For those wondering, those are 205/45R17 tires on 17 inch alloys.

ganda nung K2. bakit yung 17" rims ng RIO mukang photoshop pero hindi naman sya photoshoped.haha.

I guess its because the design of the wheel spokes are flat, so there isn't much shadows or highlights on it.

But isnt k2 just another name for rio? Same as the optima is named k5 in other countries.

From the Press Release of the Kia K2.

Based on the platform of the all-new Kia Rio, which made its world premiere at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show in March, the new Kia K2 was designed and engineered specifically for the Chinese market and will enter production at Dongfeng Yueda Kia's manufacturing facility in Jiangsu province starting this June. A 5-door hatchback of version of the Kia K2 will commence production in August of this year.

The "K" model names in Korea are usualy used for larger Kia models.
Optima = K5
Cadenza = K7
The Rio is called Pride in Korea not K2.

The small Rio-based chinese sedan is probably called "K2" because it looks like a miniature K5.

langyang K-K na yan nakakalito .....ang alam ko nga K2 ay Rio then Forte ay K3. and so on.

Just visited the Korean Kia site.
Global names & Korean names
Opirus/Amanti = Opirus
Cadenza = K7
Optima = K5
Forte/ Cerato = Forte
Rio = Pride
Picanto = Morning
Soul = Soul

So no small model carries the "K" model naming.
...and they also use odd numbers.

[aargh]

One of the few times where the sedan looks better than the hatch. I like the vw like bumper grill. It looks good but i like the k2 more. The interior of the rio looks better though.
