Kia Rio weight

Kia Rio curb weight affects the fuel efficiency, handling, and overall driving experience. A heavier Rio may have a more stable ride and handle better in adverse weather conditions, but it may also require more fuel and have slower acceleration.

On the other hand, a lighter Kia Rio may boast of better MPG and quicker acceleration, though it may also have reduced stability and less control on the road.

The lightest Kia Rio was produced in 2011 with a weight of 2365 lbs. And the heaviest model came off the production line in 2022 with 2767 lbs pounds in curb weight.
