Kia Rio Hatchback (2001-2005) boot space, practicality and safety
Looking for a different model?
(change model)
No passenger airbag, no Euro NCAP rating. Will almost certainly come off worst in any crash (unless you hit another one).
Big boot for this amount of money (did we mention it was cheap), plenty of cubby holes for nick knacks. Glovebox is an average size.
