[@maxmorris4562]

This is what I want as my first car. Could you please let me know if the insurance is high for a 17 year old? Also what engine would you recommend?

[@grantourismo0109]

insurance for 17 yr old wont be cheap, it only become cheaper after you turn 25 :(

[@lucywilliams3139]

@@grantourismo0109 actually that depends, my insurance was like £70 a month when I was 17 but I’m 19 now with 2 years no claims so it’s only £30 a month!

[@romillyunderwood5529]

Depending on whether you want full cover insurance or third party. Also where you live aka if you're in America it won't be cheap. No go to suzuki Swifts. They crush like Tim cans in accidents

The S is not the lowest model, the lx is.

[@jadeconstantine2404]

& the S doesn't have a manual option, this must be an lx.

[@jadeconstantine2404]

At least it is in the U.S.

[@offroadingfoz]

Australia S is the lowest grade.

[@dstan4549]

This is in Australia.

My 3days old Kia Rio 2018 FULLY IMPORTED engine defect, flapping sound (they dont know due to what) and key chain sound (due to using RON95, they said the car is designed for RON97) from the engine or gearbox. Reported the case since 8/1/19 until now, no solution nor how they wanna fix this. Im aware KIA Motors Corp already got my case file. KIA MALAYSIA Careline staff, Puan Labilah told me "currently our principle is busy with system upgrading, your car still can drive rite? If you wanna bring it to consumer affairs, thats your rights." Ok, i will do that, Thanks. So, if ur car still can drive, then u r not priority and ur case will be sitting on shelf somewhere. Manufacturing defect due to QC issue in Korea, not priority. If defects due to wear and tear, next year, I assume. If u wanna buy Kia Rion 2018 6 speed and u wanna pump RON95, buy other cars unless u wanna enjoy key chain sound while driving. IT IS DESIGNED this way! Kia Motors Worldwide Quality Control in seriously in question. A brand new imported car with engine defects, along come with other sounds.

[@gigirocky]

Just get a honda jazz. U wont regret it

[@craiga7652]

A C.V.T transmission would be preferable to a crappy 4speed auto.How Kia can still be putting a rats**t 4speed auto in a 2018 car even if it is the base model is bizarre.

[@eflorcas1]

Rio comes only with 1.6Liter GDI engine rated @130hp available with 6-speed manual on entry model and I beileve 6-speed auto in higher trim models in Canada and US. My 2015 Rio LX+ sedan with 138hp a base model with 6-speed manual stick actually accelerates quite briskly and never felt under powered merging/passing on highways or on uphills. It is actually a fun car to drive. It's very economical to maintain and very reliable. I have put on 62K km with no problem whatsoever.
