    Guys I need your input on the Kia Rio, well I am considering purchasing this car if this vehicle is indeed fuel efficient and right on the budget plus road worthy. My other choices are the Honda City 1.3 manual transmission and the Toyota Vios 1.3 manual transmission, care to comment on this thanks.

    Check out Car and Driver's feature of the Rio

    Actually IMO, it looks nice already but I don't think it's a car I'll buy.

    really can't say anything except that it doesn't seem to be selling well in the phils -- too few units running around. baka casa ang bagsak mo for spare parts.

    The Rio is due for replacement soon. Although a good car, I really don't recommend its purchase as there are better choices in the same price range.

    if you are after the hatchback's big luggage compartment, then this is the cheapest ticket that you can get. the M/T HB is priced at P579,000 while the A/T is priced at P619,000.

    but if you are not, I would strongly suggest on considering other alternatives as everything about this vehicle is just plain outdated. even down to the engine!

    Hindi rin mabenta dito sa korea yang modelong yan. Madalang lang makikita mo na tumatakbo sa mga kalye dito.

    Gusto ko lang malaman , kung anong mga comments about the vehicle kung may mga sira or defects on this vehicle, when I first saw this car I was so impressed, but I want to know the background on this car first before buying it, ngayon kung maraming negative comments on this car siguro di ko na lang bilhin ito.
