At the beginning of October 2017, KIA Motors introduced the Rio X-Line all-terrain hatchback, and the following month the car appeared on the Russian market.

Still, it is impossible to call the Kia Rio X-Line a full-fledged novelty, since in terms of design and technically it almost completely repeats the Rio K2 Cross, which the Koreans showed back in April at the Shanghai Motor Show.

Working on the creation of the Kia Rio X-Line, the company used a standard recipe. In particular, the five-door received an all-terrain body kit made of unpainted plastic in a circle with wheel arch extensions and side moldings, while its ground clearance was increased to 170 mm (+ 10).

At the front, the hatch has a small, glossy black grille with chrome trim. Chrome inserts also shine in the corners of the slanted headlights, which make the model look more expressive. At the bottom there is a decorative overlay silver color, imitating the protection of the bottom. A similar element is located on the rear bumper.

The window sill line of the new Kia Rio X Line 2018 smoothly rises and is accentuated with chrome, although the window frames themselves are made of unpainted plastic. Roof rails are also made from the latter, which effectively complement the image of the model. In base door handles are made to match the body color, while on more expensive trim levels they are trimmed with chrome.

There is a visor on the fifth door of the car, and the taillights are visually combined with each other by a thin horizontal bar. Of the other features of the stern, the chrome-plated double-barreled exhaust system, which the Picanto X-Line previously received, deserves mention.

Salon

The interior of the new Kia Rio X-Line almost completely repeats the interior design of the 4th generation Rio sedan, but there are differences here too. So, a more modern version of the multimedia system is available as an option.

The latter has support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay interfaces, and its functionality can be controlled from a 7.0-inch touch screen, on which it is possible to display a picture from a rear-view camera or a navigation system map.

Otherwise, the interior of the “cross-country hatchback” is completely identical to the sedan, although the aforementioned Chinese K2 Cross has contrasting inserts in the interior. In the Russian version of the Rio X-Line, for some reason, they decided to do without them.

As well as a regular sedan, the “raised” X-Line has a multifunction steering wheel with the ability to adjust for reach. The steering wheel itself received a leather sheath and a heating function. AT basic configurations the seats are trimmed with fabric, and the top ones flaunt eco-leather upholstery.

Before painting KIA, you must send the car to a car wash or wash the repair area yourself. After that, wipe dry the body and treat all places with rust. We recommend using a corrosion modifier. This substance is able to cope with rust even in places with microcracks in the metal. The next stage is the treatment of "problem" areas with a degreasing compound to ensure better adhesion of the paint to the surface. If deep damage is found, it is recommended to apply a primer, after which you can start painting with a pencil with paint for KIA. First, on any cardboard, check how the enamel lays down. After that, you can paint everything damaged areas body. The smallest chips and scratches are better and easier to paint over with an ordinary toothpick or art brush No. 00-No. 1.
Repairing a KIA chip requires several coats of enamel. It is important to take a break after each application (10-20 minutes) so that the paint can dry. The last stage of repair measures involves applying varnish to the painted areas. The procedure is necessary in order for the renovated places to acquire additional protection and a beautiful finish. This completes the painting. However, it is impossible to operate the car immediately after repair, as final drying is required. Enamel from a pencil is enough for one hour, as well as a varnish "tack-free". But for complete drying of the varnish, it takes from a day to two. It is also desirable to polish the treated areas so that they differ as little as possible from the main body coating.
