The first-generation Kia Rio (referred to as the “DC”) was offered in both four-door sedan and five-door station wagon body styles. When released, it was the least-expensive mass-produced car to be sold in the United States. While the Rio’s styling and affordability were well-received, it was derided for its poor build quality and driving experience.
