Trim Levels
Both the hatchback and sedan body styles of the 2018 Kia Rio come in three trim levels. These include LX, S, and EX. Exterior equipment on the LX model includes automatic halogen headlights, 15-inch wheels, and solar control glass. In the middle of the trim levels, the S has features like power-operated and heated side mirrors and keyless entry. At the top of the options, the EX trim level boasts 15-inch alloy wheels, front fog lights, and an exclusive glossy black and chrome grille.
Engine
Every model of the 2018 Rio comes with the same engine: a 1.6-liter four-cylinder unit that pumps out 119 pound-feet of torque and 130 horsepower. It works with a six-speed manual transmission on the base trim and a six-speed automatic transmission on the upper trim levels. The automatic trim is available as an upgrade on the LX trim.
Performance
Front-wheel drive is the standard configuration for all Rio models, which delivers easy handling and impressive fuel efficiency. According to the EPA, estimates come in at 29 mpg in the city, 37 mpg on the highway, and 32 mpg combined with the manual transmission. The automatic transmission drops the city estimate to 28 mpg, although the highway and combined estimates remain the same.
