The 2003 Kia Rio Cinco Wagon is affordable and versatile, with lots of cargo room for its subcompact segment and good handling and maneuverability, thanks to a revitalized 104-hp, 1.6-liter I4 engine and a small and lightweight size that makes its nimble in city traffic. For 2003, the Rio Cinco Wagon gets a new front end, a body-colored spoiler, a standard CD player, rear heater vents, variable intermittent wipers, and improvements to the suspension, brakes, and steering column to enhance performance and reduce road vibrations.
Like the sedan, the 2003 Rio Cinco Wagon is not overly equipped, in order to keep the price down, but it does come with more than you'll get on the sedan. Standard features include 14-inch wheels, split-fold rear seats, dual front airbags, power steering, a clock and tachometer, a rear window wiper, and the aforementioned CD player. You can add on air conditioning (no, it's not standard), alloy wheels, ABS brakes, and foglights. A 5-speed manual transmission is standard, and a 4-speed automatic is optional. Though it's a subcompact, the 2003 Rio Cinco holds a good amount of cargo and has great headroom for passenger comfort. Fuel economy, the price tag, and the Kia warranty are the biggest draws.
