2021 KIA Rio Performance And Price In Calgary
Available in both four-door sedan and five-door hatchback variations, the new 2021 model is available for sale at our Calgary dealership. Her are just some of the great features you can expect from this exciting little vehicle.
Great Ride Quality
The only engine option for the 2021 Rio is a 1.6L four-cylinder design making 120 horsepower and 113lb-ft of torque. The power is passed through either a six-speed manual gearbox or an intelligent variable automatic, both to front-wheel drive. These figures are plenty enough to propel the subcompact frame smoothly along city roads and highways alike.
But the real bonus of the Rio is its great driving feel, with the well-balanced suspension giving an attractive combination of agility, comfort, and stability. The steering is precisely weighted, and the low centre of gravity means the Rio takes corners with ease.
KIA RIO Buying Options
Fuel Economy
Interior and TechnologyThe Rio's interior makes a virtue out of simplicity, keeping everything neat, clean, and easy to use. The cabin feels spacious for a subcompact, although it's only natural that the rear seats may be a little tight for larger adults.
For 2021, the Rio is available with an 8" touchscreen in the front - a generous offer for a car of this size - backed up by dual rear LCD screens. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are both offered as standard, while Bluetooth and USB ports provide plenty of connectivity and charging options.
Active Safety Measures
Depending on the trim level, the 2021 Rio is fitted with a range of active driver assist and safety systems. Standard and available options include:
- Rear backup camera.
- Forward-collision warnings with automated brake assist.
- Lane departure warnings and keeping assist.
- Blind-spot monitoring.
