2021 Kia Rio
VEHICLE HIGHLIGHTS
This 2021 Kia Rio 1.4 Tec 5DR has covered 90 500 km and is offered with a 1.4-litre petrol semi-automatic drivetrain; the listing notes a claimed combined consumption of 6.2 L/100 km. The specification level is visible in the model badge, and the car presents as a well-equipped five-door hatchback—the Rio’s compact footprint makes it easy to live with in town.
Semi-automatic shifting and frugal claimed fuel use suit a first-car buyer focused on running costs, ease of driving and insurance. Five seats and five doors keep family flexibility reasonable, while the 1.4 petrol balance gives predictable, low-effort performance for daily commuting and light touring.
Vehicle is located in Annlin-Wes, Pretoria, Gauteng. Enquire to book a viewing or test drive and ask about similar new Rio for sale or the Rio 1.4 Tec 5DR; you can also search for petrol in Gauteng to compare listings.

Kia Rio
Kia’s Rio has always played to the practical side of South Africans who want a hatchback that doesn’t shout, but quietly ticks the right boxes. Sitting in the same B-segment pit lane as the Suzuki Swift, Volkswagen Polo Vivo, and Toyota Starlet, it’s a straight shootout for buyers watching both cents and kilometres. Pure petrol power is the only option here, with Kia offering manual, auto, and semi-auto boxes mated to either a 1.2 or 1.4 litre engine. The new dealer stock has dried up, so you’re only hunting used, with 18 active listings ranging from a wallet-friendly R94,900 up to a punchy R318,888. The typical Rio lands at R209,700, but with that kind of price swing, you want to be fussy about condition and mileage — not just what’s on the sticker. Most shoppers will bump into the 1.4 TEC 5-door, which fills five of those listings and stretches from R139,500 to R318,888 — a massive spread, probably reflecting everything from battered student rides to low-mileage, late-model gems. Oddly, the 1.2 LS sits tightly between R226,500 and R254,500, which feels steep for the smaller engine. On average, you’re looking at 104,344 km on the odometer for cars built between 2013 and 2023, so finding something under 80,000 km will take patience and luck. The Rio’s trump card? On paper at least, it brings more spec for your spend than a Polo Vivo — things like rear parking sensors and a proper touchscreen showed up earlier in its life. If you pack smart with your budget and value kit over badge status, the Rio just makes sense.
