KIA RIO
THE POWER TO SURPRISE
What can we say about the supermini that's got it all?
We could try and impress you with its air conditioning, CD audio with MP3 player, central locking and front electric windows.
Or even seduce you with its fancy features such as driver's seat height adjustment, power steering and a huge 1,145 litre boot - think gym bag and DIY gear.
All that's very nice. But when it comes down to it, you might just fall for the Rio because it's got great looks and more personality than a celebrity gameshow.
And with the new Rio being Euro 4 compliant you know you're being kinder to the environment too.
