Q: what do you think of the kia automobile, especially the rio?.
A: They are a good solid brand, equivilent to American brands in quality and a nice warranty too. Depreciation tends to be higher then average, so they make a good value used. Since Hyundai makes similar models and has a higher level of quality and reliability(more Japanese) I would go with one of their cars. You like the Rio, well take a look at the Hyundai Elantra, Consumer Reports tied it with the Honda Civic for best small sedan on the market.
