The KIA RIO (2009-12) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.5 CRDI 109 2 IPD is a five-door hatchback in the UK supermini class, alongside the Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Corsa. Its size aids parking, while rear doors and a useful boot make it more practical than many city cars for everyday use. In mycarcheck.com data, 30 look-ups covered 29 different VINs, giving a useful snapshot: average most recent recorded mileage was 98,000, annual use 6,000 miles, and cars had about three previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation was £1,300; these are observed averages, not a guarantee of any individual car’s condition or price. The 1.5 CRDi diesel’s 109 bhp gives it flexibility for commuting and longer journeys, while its size suits first-time drivers, couples and families. Against Fiesta and Corsa rivals, the Rio is a straightforward, practical choice rather than a sporty standout. Check the car’s history and condition carefully, as age and maintenance can make a big difference.
