Kia Rio Engines and Transmissions

Choose a Kia Rio engine that matches how you drive. The 1.6 MT sedan pairs a 1.6-liter gasoline unit with a manual gearbox and front-wheel drive, while 1.6 AT adds an automatic. If you want diesel, 1.5 MT is a manual, front-wheel-drive sedan example of that powertrain.

Kia Rio Trims and Equipment

Kia Rio trim levels sit on top of a technical version and describe cabin and convenience equipment. On the 1.5 MT diesel sedan with a manual gearbox and front-wheel drive, one named configuration is EX. That equipment pack does not change the engine, transmission, or drivetrain.
