Reviews Summary

After 50 years and nearly 50 million units sold, the Corolla is the best-selling car nameplate in the world. To mark a half-century of sales, Toyota reworked the Corolla’s front end and added standard Safety Sense P for auto high beams, lane-departure warning with intervention, and forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection and auto braking. But even with a newly standard reversing camera, upgraded upholstery, and a special 50th-Anniversary trim, the Corolla still has trouble in this very competitive segment.

Reviews Summary

With the debut of its 4th-generation platform, the Kia Rio adds size and weight for a more stable presence on the road, concurrently firming up its suspension to toss a little sportiness into the mix. With quality construction, an impressive warranty, and a starting MSRP of just $13,900, it’s no wonder the Rio is Kia’s best-selling vehicle internationally.
