yb stand for what?

It is the model code. For example Kia Rio UB is the previous generation. The new one is called YB.

wow
new thread
you did good job

A new and dedicated thread is better, to differentiate from the Rio Sedan and Hatchback of 2013. So , readers would not get confused on some of the specs.

1. Do not attempt to start your vehicle or turn the ignition switch.

YB rio in canada
air cond gas refrigerant using R1234yf, and lubricant FD46XG idemitsu

I am NOT sure kia msia supply R1234yf, or R-134a ?

HFO-1234yf, is a hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) with the formula CH2=CFCF3. This colorless gas has been proposed as a replacement for R-134a as a refrigerant in automobile air conditioners



Canada is very strict in atmosphere

everyone will buy kia rio

lovely

kia rio was debut and launched in paris during september 2016

paul_tan... /2016/09/01/fourth-generation-kia-rio-debuts/

Sad... But I have yet to see a single new Kia Rio otw....


I guess really there's nobody buying it despite its heavily advertised on TGV cinema

Given the Myvi launched i guess Kia Rio can really just stand aside

From price point, Rio is priced higher than Myvi, which enjoys lower tax because it is a national car. In that respect, Kia does not aim to have that kind of sales volume. The first batch of Rio YB is already sold out, we are now waiting for second batch which will only come in early next year. The response has been pretty good since the year end promotion started.

congratulations kia rio
whatever you made has been sold in malaysia

now waiting 2nd batch with CRUISE CONTROL
my wishlist

Personally, it would be better if they ditch the 17" wheelers and went smaller with either 15 or 16 like in the UK and bring in the 6 speeder AT as well.

Beauty can only sell you so far and in this day when people are becoming more FC conscious... You see more of the previous version than of the current one. And it's sad. It's a nice design; ruined by...???

I wonder what is Kia's preposition... As the same issues are also being brought up in the Australian forum boards with regards to the transmission and wheels....

Any Kia Rio YB owner can share their FC here?

mine FC on dashboard show 9.6l/100km new car on the road since 16/12/2017

Have you performed your first service yet? FC should improve after the break-in period.

Going to do my 1st 1000km service on this saturday. then will update for further.

btw, you are under NKM or dealer?

yeap and also the tyre monitoring system...wanted to get this car and switch the rim to 16", feel 17" overkill it...

Waaaa

PM to you all. Thanks

Wow that is quite bad

if compare it to P.Kenari same amount of fuel (around 26ltr) pump into it P.Kenari can go up to 420km but Rio only go 200km

Thabks for the info,look like i better think twice

Is it mostly city driving? Usually the FC will gradually improve after the first service, do monitor and share.

yeap, that is mostly city drive from home to work less than 20km per day and this is after 1st service fc

http://autobuzz.my/2017/12/15/review-kia-r...tly-overcooked/

First class

Seems like not much different with Rio UB.

My Rio sedan also averaging 10 km/L for full city driving.

Kenari more save fuel than axia

This car has really nice design..but i afraid it is underpowered and fuel consuming

I wonder. Sunoof vs moonroof

A little extra on the gas but uncompromised safety features is something that is worth every car owner's investment. Safety is something money can't buy in those critical moments when the car needs ESP, for example to avoid a near accident, or 6 airbags to protect the occupant during a collision.

i m very support on this statement without compromise on the safety feature when having this car

What is the best deal now & how much to upgrade leather seat?

Safety. First
Secondly. Fuel

PM to you. Rgds

New batch may come end february
Let me play guess

Will come new. With
Cruise control
Android player
Shark fin antenna
Two new colors
Waaaaa. Factor

Pm best deal with leather seats. Will we see new batch of rio with new head unit like Picanto??

Will PM to you. Rgds

Wiseman buys kia

I hope Kia listens to the feedback by Malaysian consumers

-get the android auto head unit in by default
-reduce the tyre/rim size
-leather seats by default

I understand removing sunroof and changing to 6speed transmission is tough change for a product just launched but the above three should be trivial.

Seriously considering Kia Rio right now but the pricing on mudah/carlist is very confusing.

Is it 68k otr w/o insurance for latest model or just 2017 stock only?
If latest, does it include android auto ala picanto or not?
Leather seat upgrade how much?

Review sounds good and if the price is correct it's very attractive.

Also noob question but is mr. Buydirect here is the same one in Mudah ad?

Naza. Pls read
get the android auto head unit in by default
-remain the tyre/rim size. 17inch lovely
-high grade fabric seats
.cruise control

Buy direct means buy directly without mudah broker
Buydirect will satisfy customer

Kia Rio YB that is being offered in Malaysia has temporary run out of stock. The new batch of stocks that is coming, may have changes to the specification, hence the price and offer may differ from the earlier promo in Dec and Jan. Do stay tuned, and will update in this thread once we get any information from Kia Malaysia HQ. Thanks

Great to hear! Hopefully there really is some long requested changes to make it perfect!

Cruise cruise can make our feet Relax can save petrol for its constant speed. Maintain a steady speed as set by the driver. Highway plus. No. Polis. AES saman. Even honda jazz E spec also got la. Go. To australia. Kia rio. Accesory they sell. Cruise control for low spec rio in australia

wonder william chua. And. Ivan kuan reads this facebook to upgrade kia marketing. Pls listen customer. We are in debt to own a car . Why never do survey in facebook kia to know customer needs.

NAZA AUTO SOLUTION can solve cruise control demand for us. We want cruise control

Can buy from Ebay Korea and ask local sc to install what...

Do not buy from ebay . Void kia msia warranty. Better naza sell and fix by them

had to ask BuyDirect whether the kia msia will void if change the long fm antena to shark fin antena

Void of course. For example, after you have changed to the shark fin antenna , and you complaint of poor FM reception, the service center will not be able to assist you.

I love kia

Hahaha.... just some DIY job on the shark fin antenna which just dismantle the stick then screw the shark fin with built in antenna on it

really improve the look of the car

Wow cool, i have the same car & same colour as yours, you make me feel want to do the same too, haha.
Btw, You don't mind void warranty?

Silver color so sexy

didn't temper much on the original antenna based as i just unscrew the sticky antenna and put the shark fin cover on it.

after try a few days seem no issue on the receiving of fm (so far)

So basically, there is no antenna for the radio with your setup. The Shark Fin antenna is just for aesthetics then. :-D
I am surprise to hear that there is no effect on the quality of your FM reception. Anyway, so long you are happy, that's most important.

This is what i mean to change from sticky antenna to shark fin antenna

Hi there, any of you notice sound (clicking sound) whenever turning the steering ?

2018 Kia Rio YB Body Kit and Rear Spoiler, probably the first of such design in Malaysia.

What are the latest verdict? Seems quite now after the new Myvi came out.

No changes to the specs at the moment. Incoming stocks is also not sufficient to meet the demand or orders in hand. There is a waiting period of 1.5-2 months at the moment. Kia Rio is the best selling model for Kia worldwide and there is short supply everywhere. KMC or Kia Motors Corporation can only supply limited units for Malaysian market.

If any changes, the price will surely increase accordingly.

PM me your location for test drive.

Went for a test drive yesterday at Kia Pj, been eyeing for Rio quite some times and i really like the current gen... price also attractivr now after deduct GST+rebate.. But the head unit really potong stim..

Anyway according to the SA there are no more stock for Rio, earliest will be in Sept.. and it will come with 6-speed transmission & auto cruise... Sunroof will be removed.. not sure true or not

That sounds interesting.. 6-speed auto, I hope... with 1.6 engine
