2018 Kia Stinger

“M3s are a dime a dozen. But drive a Kia Stinger down the road, and you’ll turn heads.” RoadandTrack.com (video)

 2018 Kia Rio 

“Not everybody wants to drive something that’s small and cheap but for those who appreciate practicality and value, a car like the Kia Rio is awesome, especially since it consistently exceeds your expectations. Times have changed. These days, if you want to make the practical choice it doesn’t have to hurt.” KBB.com (video review and road test)

“When one of my colleagues asked me, “What have you driven recently that has actually surprised you?” I surprised myself with my answer. “The Kia Rio” …Inside, Rio has made great strides. The dash is a highlight. The instrument panel on the driver’s side is nicely connected to the passenger’s dash with a horizontal element in a contrasting color, supported by a black beam below and black dash above. It makes the dash look structural and architectural, like a floating bridge above the footwells.”  Forbes.com
