Kia
2006 Kia Rio
Base List Price: $10,570
Kia’s redesigned compact Rio sits on a longer wheelbase and a wider track for 2006. In addition to the new front-wheel-drive platform, the Rio’s engine now produces slightly more horsepower.
The South Korean automaker says its entry-level Rio has a sportier, more substantial appearance. Like its predecessor, the new Rio’s emphasis is on overall value.
Two trim levels are available: base and LX. Kia developed a Rio5 hatchback to accompany the sedan. In the prior Rio generation, both a sedan and a Rio Cinco wagon were offered. Each Rio has six standard airbags, including the usual frontal-impact devices, seat-mounted side-impact airbags and side curtain-type airbags.
2006 Kia Sedona
Base List Price: TBA
Kia’s front-wheel-drive minivan became the company’s top-selling vehicle by 2004 after its launch for the 2002 model year. After four seasons in its original form, the South Korean automaker has developed a second-generation Sedona for 2006.
The redesigned Sedona is larger in every dimension and uses a lengthened wheelbase. Kia claims the Sedona is significantly lighter and passenger space has increased by nearly 15 percent. The 2006 Sedona has a 3.8-liter V-6 that generates an estimated 240 horsepower.
Following the trend of other minivan manufacturers, the 60/40-split third-row seat folds into the floor. A tire-pressure monitor, side-impact airbags and side curtain-type airbags that protect outboard occupants in all three rows are standard. Power-adjustable pedals and a backup warning system are optional.
Two trim levels are available: standard LX and upscale EX. Sales begin in late 2005. The Sedona’s primary competitors include the Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna, but Kia invariably promises lower prices and greater value than its rivals.
