As you can see, the 2018 Kia Rio and the 2018 Toyota Yaris are very close when it comes to price, power, and features. However, in terms of price and total maximum horsepower, the 2018 Kia Rio pulls ahead of the Toyota Yaris. It gives more power and equal infotainment for a lower price point, which makes it the better deal overall.
In addition to this, the 2018 Kia Rio has a wealth of safety features specific to the Kia brand. Some of these features include aspects of the Kia Drive Wise® safety suite like the Forward Collision Warning System and Electronic Brake-Force Distribution System. Both of these features and many others in the suite are designed to help reduce the risk of collisions or to lower the damage and injury in the event of a collision.
