Kia Rio images released

Motorists looking for Kia deals may wish to check out the first images of the next generation Kia Rio which is set to be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show next month.

The Rio is the latest in a long line of new models unveiled by the South Korean manufacturer and boasts a bold and distinctive design.

Kia fans will be able to get their hands on the five-door version from September, with a three-door variation expected to hit the UK market in early 2012.

Soon-Nam Lee, director of overseas marketing, Kia Motors Corporation, said: "This new model is a big step forward. The Rio has always been successful, and with this new incarnation we have a car that people will want to buy for its looks."

The new model features a larger wheelbase which promises greater passenger space and comfort, together with increased cargo capacity.

Since its launch in 2005, global sales of the current-generation Rio have totalled more than 860,000 units, with UK sales contributing 52,626 units.
