Kia Rio Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2005–2009)

Kia Rio Engines and Transmissions

Kia Rio engine options stay modest, with a front-wheel-drive drivetrain. Sedan examples include the 1.4 MT gasoline with a manual transmission for city work, and the 1.4 AT automatic. A 1.5 MT diesel sedan is another powertrain choice if you cover more highway miles.

Kia Rio Trims and Equipment

Kia Rio trim levels sit on the technical version you pick rather than replacing it. On the 1.4 MT gasoline sedan, look for equipment packs named Base and Comfort. Base stays simple; Comfort typically adds convenience kit without changing the engine or drivetrain.
