The Car Guide rating 79%(view ratings)
Available in sedan and hatchback formats, the Rio gets around using a 1.6-litre 137-horsepower 4-cylinder. With handling more akin to a compact than a subcompact, the Rio proves that the small car segment, ignored by too many manufacturers even today, has enormous potential. This year, the front and tail ends have been redesigned and the dashboard has undergone a few improvements.
