2018 Kia Rio S Specs

Kia Rio

The Rio S is the 2018 Rio lineup’s latest addition and slots neatly into the middle of the range with standard fitment of an automatic transmission and slightly better equipment compared to the base LX. Offered as standard in the S and above that of the LX are 60/40 split-folding rear seats, a center console with sliding armrest and storage area, power windows with driver's one-touch auto-down function, an integrated rearview camera, and remote keyless entry with trunk release. The infotainment system comprises two additional tweeter speakers and Bluetooth connectivity while an additional USB charging port is added to the rear.
