Шины и диски для Kia Rio, размер колёс на Киа Рио

Шины на Kia Rio (Киа)

The Kia Rio was produced from 1999 to 2023. The model range included a sedan, 3- and 5-door hatchback, equipped with inline 4-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. In 2023, the South Korean manufacturer introduced the K3 as the successor to this subcompact car.

First Generation

The first-generation car was introduced in 1999 and was offered in two body styles - a 4-door sedan and a 5-door wagon. At the time, it was the cheapest passenger car on several markets and was quite controversial. The design and affordability were offset by poor build quality and unsatisfactory handling. All modifications were equipped with an inline 4-cylinder gasoline engine with a volume of 1.5 liters. In 2003, 1.3- and 1.6-liter engines were added to it. The transmission could be a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic.

Second Generation

In 2005, Kia introduced the second generation of this model. This was still a compact car, but developed on the Hiundai Accent platform using the same components. First of all, it was an inline 1.6-liter engine of the Alpha II series with a power of 110 horsepower. Other changes affected the appearance of the car, the increase in size, including the interior space. In addition, safety and fuel efficiency have improved significantly. In late 2009, the lineup underwent a facelift, which affected the front part, where a new radiator grille was installed, made in the "tiger" style that the South Korean automaker adhered to at that time. The dashboard also got a new design, equipped with red backlighting.

Third Generation

From the 3rd generation, Kia began to offer two versions of this model. One of them with the index UB was global, available all over the world, the other was a special modification developed for the South Korean and Russian markets. The debut of the "global" car took place in 2011 at the Geneva Motor Show. It was distinguished by a design corresponding to the corporate style, which made it similar to other models of the brand, first of all, Optima and Sportage. In addition to the appearance, the sizes have changed significantly. The wheelbase increased to 2570 mm, adding space in the salon and trunk. The choice between body types for the global model was small - a hatchback with 3 or 5 doors, a 4-door sedan. But the range of engines has expanded significantly. In addition to the classic Kia 4-cylinder engines with a volume of 1.4 and 1.6 liters, it included diesel engines with a volume of 1.1 and 1.4 liters, as well as a 1.25-liter gasoline engine. Transmission options included a 6-speed "mechanics" or 4- and 6-speed "automatics".

Russian Version

For the Russian market, Kia developed a special version of the Rio. In 2011, it began to be produced at the Hyundai plant in St. Petersburg, first in a sedan body. In 2012, a 5-door hatchback appeared in the lineup of modifications. The key difference from the global version is the design, made in a more conservative style. This approach also affected the components used. The engine range included only time-tested 4-cylinder inline gasoline engines with a volume of 1.4 and 1.6 liters of the Gamma series. They were combined with 5- and 6-speed manual transmission, as well as "automatic" with 4 or 6 steps. Thanks to good reliability, most of these cars are still on the move, which can be judged by the number of tires and wheels purchased in the "Mosavtoshina" online store.
