What car should I buy? Honda Fit LX or Kia Rio Hatchback S?
Getting a new car this week.
Trying to decide between a new Honda Fit LX or a Kia Rio Hatchback S.
I like both cars. Both ride smooth, the Honda maybe a little smoother.
Pros/cons of each.
I like the Fit. I love Honda's and trust hondas. I like the radio buttons, compartments, back up camera, air vent placement, magic seats. Biggest drawback is that the passenger seat is a little cramped and my dad was not comfortable sitting in it. The seats are the most comfortable but I don't think I would've noticed until my sister told me. I don't tote a lot of people around but also don't want people to be uncomfortable in my car.
My sister has a 2018 Kia Rio and really likes it. I liked how it drove too, and I like that there's more legroom for passengers. I also like the 10yr/100k warranty. I just don't know a lot about rios. Are they reliable? Do they last.
Does anyone have a history with either car?
Pros/cons? What do you recommend?
Another option would be to get a used 2015 Honda Civic LX with 34k priced at 14.9 out the door.
Hondas long term reliability far exceeds Kia. But their warranty is shorter.
You can go to US NEWS & World report online & enter all 3 cars, compare and see a lot of information on all 3 of your choices.
Get the one that's right for 80% of the driving you do. Don't be concerned about Kias; they have a long warranty so it will not be an issue. Car makers don't hand out long warranties unless they're confident in the product. But it sounds like you want the Honda. So get one of those. Dad will be OK for just the occasional ride.
- Will 20 rims fit my honda accord 08 and what size tires should fit? I know 255/35/20 don't fit because I had them on n Damage the tires. The tires were scraping and pilling anytime I run a pothole
- Want to install better car stereo but am confused how to make sure what I buy will fit into my car? Confused? I want to install a new stereo system in my car and see those cars out there with the big screens on their stereos and I want something like that, but I have a 1993 honda civic and am honestly confused on how I would buy something like that and it would fit into the dash of my car. Do I have to buy something the exact same size? Do they come with speakers too? Can anyone give me any ideas on where to start. I'm really confused.
- Suggestions for finding lift for scooter. Into Honda Fit hatchback? I need to find a lift to get my Pride Go-go scooter into the back area. Local dealers all tell me it's impossible. Manual says that with 2 people in car, you can carry 550 lbs of cargo. Scooter only weighs 100 lb. Lifts I've seen weigh from 35 lbs and up. What am I missing? They're saying the hitch weight is only 100 lbs. I realize the scooter would need to be broken down (seat off which is simply) otherwise the size of the scooter is not a problem.
- Should I purchase a Honda Fit or a Kia Soul? I'm on the fence between the both based on company standards. Honda has always made a reliable car, but the Kia has better warranty and better features. Help me! I'm a college student looking for a fun, yet reliable car!
