This car is the most reliable for the money .
By Blue on Friday, June 26, 2020
Very reliable car with excellent gas mileage - 5.0
Sx with convenience package
By anon on Thursday, February 02, 2017
I have owned this vehicle since 2012, It is the Rio5 hatchback, SX with sunroof, keyless entry, Nav. I am very happy with this vehicle, I would have rated the comfort lower since this was fitting with standard 17 alloys with 40 series tire, But since you lumped comfort along with convenience, this bumps the rating up to 8. The vehicle has been 100% reliable mechanically, nimble enough to dodge the pothole, Has decent power, It comes with heated seats & apart from some rattles over these bad NY roads, relatively quiet. Great value, a lot for a little, Looks great & drives well, - 2.0
Too many cons in the long run
By GE019 on Tuesday, September 26, 2023
For the LX... Cons: -Currently one of the top cars that is most vulnerable to theft. *Make sure it has the anti-theft software upgrade! Get a steering wheel lock too. -Alarm is not connected to the windows, only the doors. Your alarm will not sound if a window is busted out. -As bare-bones when it comes to features as you can get. Plastic seat adjusters can break. -No touchscreen or backup camera. No Bluetooth. -No middle console. No lock on glovebox. -Poor interior lighting. No lights on visors or any switches above. Only interior light is the overhead in between front and back seats. -Air vents don't have a large range of motion. If you live in a hot climate, this car doesn't cool off quickly. Holds heat in too. -No backseat air vents. -Tires are very small and you feel every bump in the road. Your tire pressure light will be on a lot. Not a quiet drive either. -Sits very low to the ground. -Almost a little too small. Pro: -Very budget friendly -Gas mileage is pretty good. -Haven't had any major mechanical issues even after owning for a few years. -Very light and agile. -Very spacious trunk. -Not a bad looking exterior body.
