Advantages and disadvantages

Strengths

Let's take a look at the pros first. As you can see, the dimensions of the trunk of the KIA Rio X Line are at the level of rivals, and the “hangar” itself is very convenient for loading. The fifth door opens high enough, so the probability of inadvertently hitting your head is small.

FROM open lid trunk, the owner gets a convenient and wide opening into which you can push even the overall luggage. Wheel arches do not protrude into the compartment with a complex relief and do not eat up part of the space. Also pleased with the presence of illumination, niches on the sides (from the beginning of the opening to the arches) and fixing tapes in the niche on the left side, thanks to which the little thing will not look for the fifth corner on the road.

Finishing the trunk of the KIA Rio X Line with plastic instead of pile is the right decision. The pile quickly gets dirty, and if you have to transport boards and other lumber at least occasionally (for example, to give), the situation only gets worse. Sawdust and wood shavings that have fallen into the pile are extremely difficult to remove from there - not every vacuum cleaner can cope with this task.

Also, the car has a comfortable configuration. rear bumper, which does not protrude far back. Thanks to this solution, you don’t have to reach far into the trunk. This not only increases the convenience of loading, especially in the case of heavy or bulky luggage, but also reduces the likelihood of staining clothes.

The luggage compartment in any car, including the Kia Rio, is an attribute of practicality, and its dimensions play an important role. Despite the fact that when choosing a suitable model, the exterior and technical capabilities, the trunk never goes unnoticed. This approach is also valid for Korean Kia car Rio, regardless of its bodywork. In the model we are considering, the trunk volume of the sedan reaches 500 liters, and the hatchback trunk volume is 389 liters. The lack of usable space of the latter can be compensated by transforming the rear seating row. And then the sizes will increase.

Consider trunks

Having opened the luggage lid, you should take a closer look at the upholstery, or rather, at the material of its execution. The upholstery serves as a material isolating external noise, as well as a "shield" protecting the transported goods. The lid lock is unlocked using a special key fob or key.

The entrance to the luggage compartment has the following dimensions:

  • compartment height in terms of capacity, equal to 447 mm;
  • width (opening) for loading - 958 mm;
  • loading height - 721 mm, which is not always convenient for undersized owners.

The internal useful space of the trunk can be designated by the following characteristics and their dimensions:

  • depth (to the backs of the back row) - 984 mm;
  • width (distance between the side panels of the compartment) - 1439 mm;
  • height (from the floor to the closed lid) - 557 mm.

The compartment has a special niche, inside which the manufacturer has placed a full-size spare tire.

The hatchback trunk has both positive features and inherent disadvantages. The difference in body length with a sedan reaches 250 mm. This parameter was affected by the smaller removal of the luggage compartment. If we resort to the transformation of the rear seating row (fold the backs), then the useful volume of the trunk indicated by us at the beginning of the material increases significantly and reaches an enviable value of 1500 liters. In this position, the transportation of oversized items becomes an easier process. In the form of a disadvantage here, one can designate the impossibility of the simultaneous presence of passengers in the back row. But in general, the volume of the trunk of the hatchback, as well as the volume of the trunk of the sedan, is quite roomy.

Demanding Kia owners Rio managed to notice the lack of soundproofing of the cabin space. Noise is generated in the wheel arches of a moving car, engine compartment and trunk. Craftsmen came up with and implemented some ways to reduce the degree of influence of the noise factor on the comfort of passengers. To implement the chosen method of isolation from an amateur, you will need to have certain knowledge in terms of the features of the body and interior devices and the process of dismantling and installing elements. If there is no such factor, then it would be more correct to turn to professionals. Do not forget that this type of work can be carried out with the removal of specific nodes.

How to remove the trunk lid

This element is fixed to Kia body Rio with the help of hinge groups that are coupled with springs, and all fasteners are implemented using bolts. Springs are necessary to hold the lid open, and also act as an amplifier.

A profiled strip is used to seal the adjacent surfaces of the cover to the body. The luggage lock and its latch are located in the central part of the lid. These components can be adjusted if necessary.

The sequence of actions assumes the presence of an assistant and looks like this.

  1. We open the lid.
  2. Having fixed it in a vertical position, we proceed to unscrew the indicated bolts and then remove the product.
  3. We also dismantle rubber stops.

The procedure for mounting the cover is carried out according to the reverse manipulation algorithm and involves, if necessary, adjusting the components of the locking unit.

How to dismantle the tailgate

The tailgate of the Kia Rio is held by hinge elements that are attached to the body pillars by welding. The elements themselves are bolted to the door. The opening and holding in this position of the body element considered here is carried out using gas-filled suspension struts. A profiled strip also serves as a sealant.

Dismantling the hatchback door is carried out through such a list of actions.

  1. Disconnect the battery by removing the "minus" terminal from its output.
  2. We open the door.
  3. Having removed the sealing ring from the washer pipe, disconnect it.
  4. Now we dismantle the washer nozzle (for this, we additionally release the branch pipe connector).
  5. Take off the door trim.
  6. We also dismantle the decorative panels from the rear body pillars by unscrewing the screws fixing them.
  7. When removing the Kia Rio sedan panels, disconnect the wiring connector. We stretch the tourniquet through the technological hole.
  8. We unscrew the bolts that hold the door shock absorbers, having previously fixed open door in the vertical plane.
  9. The assistant holds the door, and the main performer unscrews the remaining fasteners, after which the entire element is carefully removed from the car.

The reassembly procedure is obvious, so we will do without comments.

If it was necessary to perform soundproofing measures for the Kia Rio sedan compartment, then we do this to provide access. We remove upholstery panels inside the luggage section sequentially by detaching special plastic clips. We carry out dismantling actions carefully so as not to damage the main electrical wiring located along the perimeter of the body in its rear part.

Summing up

Now we have found out how much luggage space a sedan has, and how much luggage space a hatchback has. As it turned out, dismantle the cover luggage compartment in a Kia Rio sedan, or a hatchback stern door is not particularly difficult. Here, an important action will be to take precautions that will allow the on-board mains electrical network to remain intact.

Technical characteristics of KIA Rio convincingly talk about the benefits of the new sedan.

Second generation era popular model Kia Rio fell on the initial period of global transformations at Kia Motors, which subsequently made the Korean manufacturer a worthy competitor to many global auto giants. Naturally, this left its mark on the evolution of Rio. The car has become much better, more modern, more technologically advanced and more attractive to the average buyer.

Announcement of the second Generation Kia Rio (JB) was held in 2005 during the auto show in Detroit, where the North American version was presented to the public in a sedan. Later, in Geneva, European modifications were shown, presented by a sedan and a hatchback, created specifically for the needs and wishes of buyers from Europe. The second generation Rio was created on a joint platform Hyundai Accent MC, thanks to which the dimensions of the car have increased slightly, going beyond the usual B-class framework. Despite this, the manufacturer continued to position it as a compact family car.

In terms of design, the second generation of Kia Rio stepped towards European preferences, and this is not surprising, because Europe, including Russia, became the main market for the Korean manufacturer at that time. Meanwhile, there were no global changes in appearance in comparison with the first generation of Rio. Korean designers have added a little dynamism to the contours of the body, equipped the car with large expressive headlights and stretched plastic black moldings of a non-standard configuration around the entire perimeter, which noticeably increase in the rear of the body.
The 2nd generation Rio received a more noble appearance during the restyling of 2009, which was worked on by the well-known German auto designer Peter Schreyer invited to the Korean company. It was he who introduced a new proprietary grille, developed a spoiler for luxury modifications and redesigned the architecture of the bumpers, making them much more modern.

Initially, the dimensions of the second generation Kia Rio, especially the hatchback, fit perfectly into the B-class. So the length of the hatchback was 3990 mm, and the sedan - 4240 mm; the width was 1695 mm for all bodywork options, the same was true for the height - 1470 mm. After restyling in 2009, the sedan and hatchback added a little in length - the sedan grew to 4250 mm, and the hatchback stretched to 4025 mm, the rest of the dimensions did not change. The length of the wheelbase has not changed either; for all body modifications of all years of production, it was exactly 2500 mm. The same applies to height. ground clearance, which was 155 mm. In turn, the curb weight of a standard vehicle, on the contrary, has significantly decreased due to the use of lighter materials after restyling - initially Rio mass the second generation was equal to 1154 kg, and after 2009 it decreased to 1064 kg.

Unlike the exterior, the interior of the cabin of the second generation Kia Rio has changed dramatically. Frankly cheap materials are a thing of the past, dust and noise insulation have improved, the interior layout has become much more convenient, more ergonomic, free space has grown for both the front and rear row of seats. The front panel has received a completely new architecture aimed at providing maximum comfort for the driver: access to the controls has become noticeably easier, their location has become more ergonomic, the steering wheel has been redesigned, and the instrument panel has also been updated.

Due to the increase in dimensions, the trunk was also increased, and its volume increased further during restyling. So in a sedan, the useful volume of the luggage compartment was initially 339 liters, and then grew to 390 liters. The hatchback had a trunk volume of 270 liters, but with the rear seats folded down, it increased to 1107 liters. After restyling, the initial volume remained practically unchanged, but in the version with folded rear row seats, it already increased to 1145 liters.

Specifications. Officially, only modifications with one single gasoline engine were sold in Russia. At the plant in Kaliningrad, the second generation Kia Rio was equipped with a 1.4-liter four-cylinder atmospheric unit with a 16-valve DOHC type mechanism that produced no more than 97 hp. maximum power at 6000 rpm. peak torque this engine accounted for around 125 Nm, developed at 4700 rpm. The engine was completed, as in the first generation, with a 5-speed “mechanics” or a 4-band “automatic”.
In terms of dynamic characteristics the second generation of Kia Rio did not show anything outstanding, the maximum speed of the car was limited to 173 km / h, and the starting acceleration time from 0 to 100 km / h took on average about 12.5 - 13.0 seconds.
As for the appetite of the engine, within the city limits the car consumed about 7.9 liters per 100 km.

The suspension of the second generation Rio retained the previous layout, but became more adapted to Russian roads. The stability of the car has improved by increasing the wheel track, the ABS + EBD system has appeared in the basic version of the equipment, and the shock absorber settings have also been changed.

Note that significant improvements have also occurred in the field of security. Kia Rio II became one of the first Korean cars to receive four stars in tests Euro NCAP. Unlike the previous generation, the standard equipment of the second generation Kia Rio now includes six airbags, front seat belts with pretensioners, and child seat mounts.

And in terms of equipment, the second generation of Kia Rio has added quite noticeably. Already in the basic configuration, this car received a driver's seat with eight adjustments, an audio system, heating rear window, initial electrical package and a number of other equipment.

In 2013, the second generation of Kia Rio is very successfully implemented in the Russian secondary car market. A car manufactured in 2010 can be purchased for an average of 350,000 - 400,000 rubles. The second generation Kia Rio was discontinued in 2011 when it was replaced by a third generation model.

A spacious trunk is useful on the farm. A lot of motorists, when making a decision to buy a car, are one of the first to look at the capacity of the trunk. 300-500 liters - these are the most common volume values modern cars. If you can fold rear seats, then the trunk will increase even more.

Technical indicators

Many motorists choose a car precisely according to the volume of its luggage compartment, since they are often forced to carry loads, but smaller than, for example, in a minibus. The trunk on the Kia Rio is from 270 to 500 liters, depending on the configuration.
