2017 (171) Kia Rio

If you are in the market for a supermini then the Kia Rio should definitely be on your shortlist for a variety of reasons. First of all, it is easy on the eye with Kia's designers once again coming up trumps. Secondly, there is the gargantuan amounts of interior space, with plenty of head and knee room for driver and passengers alike. There is a great driving position, thanks to the multiple levels of adjustment in the driver's seat and steering wheel. The dashboard feels of high quality and is full of soft-touch, high-quality materials. There is a good level of standard equipment that includes USB input, six airbags and ESP anti-skid control. There is a great range of petrol and diesel engines with the latter variant capable of returning up to 88 miles per gallon. The cabin is well insulated, making for an enjoyable driving experience whether on country roads or the motorway.
