While stepping up with versatile and practical benefits such as wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, the Rio has not added an exorbitant amount of dollar signs to its final price! The Vincentric Best Value in America award factors the current market price of a vehicle and then looks at its cost of ownership over its lifespan. New for this year, the Rio boasts a newly designed front end, a larger 8-inch touchscreen display, wireless smartphone integration, and the technology package that adds safety items such as automatic front braking with pedestrian detection, lane-keeping assist, lane-departure warning, automatic climate control, and automatic high-beam headlights.
Power is sourced from the 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine with 120 horsepower and continuously variable automatic transmission. One of the best variants to check out is the Rio S trim level: you get the added benefits of cruise control, remote keyless entry and trunk opener, 60:40 split-folding rear seat, and a center console armrest and storage bin. Another reason that excellent vehicles such as the Rio are at the top of many awards and honors lists is other bonus traits such as our emergency roadside assistance, providing a trusted and experienced network of over 17,000 trusted roadside assistance providers on call all over the nation and accessible 24 hours a day.
