Full specifications for the Kia Rio (YB, fourth generation), laid out by variant. The column below covers the 1.0 T-GDI 120 PS petrol (engine code G3LC). Figures are compiled from the manufacturer’s Certificate of Conformity; confirm anything critical against your own car’s papers.
Each column is one specific vehicle — a single engine or motor and, where shown, body style. Dimensions and several weights are specific to that body and drivetrain; other body or powertrain versions differ, so match the column to your own vehicle.
