Press Release Body = Renton, WA: Renton Kia, your trusted Kia Dealer in Renton, WA
(www.rentonKia.com), invites you to test-drive the class leading sub-compact, 2006
Kia Rio.

The 2006 Kia Rio/Rio5 ranked highest for initial quality in the sub-compact category
in a tie according to the J.D. Power and Associates 2006 Initial Quality Study(SM)
(IQS). The annual report, released, measures 217 vehicle attributes across eight
categories, including the driving experience, engine and transmission, and a broad
range of quality problem symptoms reported by vehicle owners.

\"Rio is a class-leading sub-compact vehicle and an excellent example of Kia\'s
continued dedication to offering consumers an affordable vehicle without sacrificing
quality,\" said Len Hunt, executive vice president and COO of Kia Motors America.
\"We\'re extremely pleased that the automotive industry and consumers alike recognize
Rio\'s high level of excellence.\"

In the study, the Kia Rio was honored as the highest-ranking model in a tie in the
sub-compact segment at 137 problems per 100 vehicles (PP100). The all-new 2006 Kia
Sedona minivan also performed well in its first year of release, while the Kia
Sportage compact SUV scored better than the industry average.

The Kia Rio sedan and five-door hatchback are powered by the same 110-hp, 1.6-liter
four-cylinder engine. It\'s a sophisticated modern engine, complete with dual
overhead camshafts and variable valve timing. Safety features that come on all
models include front seatbelt pre-tensioners along with six airbags: dual frontal,
front seat side-impact and full-coverage side-impact curtain. The Rio sedan is
available as a base model or in LX trim. The Rio5 five-door hatchback is available
exclusively in SX trim.

The all-new 2006 Rio sedan and Rio5 five-door are raising the bar in the entry level
segment by offering class-leading horsepower and interior volume, and six standard
airbags, including full-length side-curtain airbags. The Rio and Rio5\'s longer
wheelbase and increased width and height contribute to a best-in-class 92.2 cubic
feet of passenger room and both body styles feature a long list of standard
equipment.
