2016 Kia Rio Interior

The interior of the 2016 Kia Rio has a simple and elegant look. The quality of materials is nothing special in the base 2016 Kia Rio LX, but the soft-touch surfaces added, padded armrest and metal Tasty accents on the upper trim was making the cabin of the Rio one of the best in the small car segment. We strongly recommend that the extra mile go an EX or SX, as they come, especially with a really impressive amount of additional equipment.

The 2016 Kia Rio scores in the areas of space and comfort. Even large driver should be comfortable behind the tilt and telescoping steering wheel (EX and SX models), while the rear seat offers plenty of space competition. It’s the same story further back than the sedan has a generous 13.7 cubic foot trunk. The tailgate is only slightly larger (14.9 cubic feet), but the maximum tensile strength potential of the sedan a good bet for folding the rear seats is always open 49.8 cubic feet capacity, lots for this class. In particular, the rear seats are split 60/40 and fold in all Rios perfectly flat.
