We are about a month away from the next Paris Motor Show and the event will be seeing various carmakers unveiling their future products as well as concepts. For Kia, they have confirmed their participation at the event and they will be utilizing their stage time to promote the upcoming Rio.
Well, it appears that Kia couldn?t hold their excitement for the future Rio any longer as they decided to release the official image of the car today. As how you can see above, the Rio hatchback looks really good and the sharp design promises a speedy performance.
It coincides with the spy shots of the Rio GT that has been testing its power out at the tracks all while in development. The Rio GT is expected to be the range topping trim and it will rely on a 1.6L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with 220hp to offer.
But of course, the figures are unofficial and it will have to wait for the Rio?s unveiling for further confirmation. If Kia is able to pull off a high quality Rio GT in the near future, it will only spell trouble for the segment-leader, the Ford Fiesta ST.
