Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The KIA RIO (2009-12) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.4 96 2 is a five-door hatchback for everyday driving. It sits in the affordable small-car end of the UK market, offering transport rather than luxury. Its size suits parking, while rear doors and a boot make it versatile for trips and errands.
Mycarcheck.com records 168 look-ups for this Rio, representing 71 distinct VINs, a useful spread of vehicles rather than a single example. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £1,300 and average recorded mileage of 80,000 miles. Typical annual mileage is 6,000, and cars have had about three previous keepers on average.
That profile makes the KIA Rio 1.4 sensible for commuters, first-time drivers and households wanting affordable motoring. Five doors help with passengers and shopping, though this is not a large family car.
