“How do you feel about a KIA Rio as a handy everyday companion with a manual gearbox? Here you get simple driving pleasure, a comfortable cabin and practical features for both work and leisure. Equipped with ac, usb input, traction control and aux input – ready for the next owner.”
The Tested range is a wide selection of used cars which, depending on their age and mileage, may require some maintenance and servicing, as well as possible repairs. However, each vehicle is unique with its own history, so it is important to read the description and any comments in our test to understand its condition.
What do we notice in the Kvd test?
Our vehicle technicians have tested the car on more than 170 points and noted both approved points and eventual remarks. This gives you a good and fair picture of the car.
Since the the car has had a previous owner, some signs of use may be present, which we consider normal wear based on the car’s age and mileage. This is not indicated in the test results, but is a natural part of a used car.
This KIA Rio has the following specifications:

Comment
Clutch slips. Rattling noise in engine compartment. Oil leak. Engine does not build oil pressure when engine is cold. Oil light also lights up when cold. Also louder knocking/rattling noise when engine is cold
The drivetrain should work but requires ongoing maintenance and replacement of components. The drivetrain is noisier than on a car that has driven a shorter distance. Traces of oil in the engine compartment are very common and oil consumption is higher than when the car was new. The range on electricity is limited.

Brakes are wearing parts and should be replaced when necessary. Surface rust may occur on the brake discs and is considered normal, without affecting braking performance.
