If you are getting the KIA used, it is well worth the value.
Compare against cars of similar year and specs you will see you get all the ticks.
A 2014 KIA RIO at RM30K comes with all the bells and whistle, it amazes me a car that period has most of the features you can only find in today's car as standard offerings.
Go compare any other at the year and budget.
If you scrutinize more into the build process of a KIA, you will be surprised at the quality. For instance, they use a adaptor plug for wiring between the door and the body, unlike most cars with a tube and continuous wiring.
The turn signal control are on left side, designed like continentals for europe market. The carpet and linings are think, not like paper thin jappos.
KIA Engine performance is torguey. Fuel consumption is average, drinks if you are heavy on the foot nut provides the power.
Overall KIA is great value for used car. I wouldn't worry too much about maintenance, most mechanics are able to work on the tech.
