After seeing the seemingly huge amount of SLS Rios on here, I couldn't help but post my Rio. However, the difference here is that it's a Rio SLi. So basically the same as SLS with 4 doors, no leather (the cloth seats are infinitely better than the leather ones!) and no auto climate control.
Despite what seems to be the belief on here, I think the 5 door is indeed the better looker. The window/bodywork ratio is more harmonious with less boring metal.
I do quite a lot of mountain biking so I find it easier to open the rear doors to make everything fit nicely (it has swallowed 2 bikes and gear for a whole days worth of remote riding and had some space to spare!) but then again, that's just me!
The 'latte' colour looks fairly average on the Kia website, however in real life, it looks more like an 'aluminium silver'. And to pre-empt questions, it is auto. Great for the commute into uni where I average 5km/h on Church/Chapel Street...
I do get 8.1L/100km when I'm commuting in heavy traffic, but on the open road I have had 4.8L/100km at 75kmh!
