Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for those seekin
Given the vehicle is a 2023 model, your primary focus should be on confirming the status of the manufacturer's warranty and ensuring the full service history is present to maintain it. Since the mileage is higher than the aggregate average for this model, check that all scheduled servicing has been performed according to the KIA schedule.
When negotiating, ask for evidence of any work carried out between the first registration in January 2023 and the first MOT in 2026. While the MOT was clean, always verify the condition of consumable items like tyres and brake pads, which are common failure points for this model type.
As a 998cc MHEV (Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle), this Rio is designed for efficiency, likely sitting in a lower insurance group and tax band compared to traditional petrol counterparts. Fuel economy should be competitive for a small hatchback, particularly in urban driving cycles.
Maintenance costs for this model are generally predictable, though you should budget for standard wear-and-tear items. We estimate the annual running costs to be relatively modest, making it a practical choice for daily commuting.
While the January 2026 MOT recorded no defects, you should manually inspect the tyres, windscreen wipers, and brake pads. These are the top three failure reasons identified in the aggregate data for this model across 1,474 analysed vehicles.
Additionally, as this is a hybrid model, ensure the electrical systems are functioning correctly. Check the tyre tread depth and condition specifically, as the aggregate data suggests this is a frequent cause of MOT failure for the Rio range.
This 2023 KIA Rio GT-Line S MHEV, finished in black, is a relatively recent registration with 17,679 miles recorded at its last MOT in January 2026. The vehicle's mileage is slightly above the model aggregate average of 7,411 miles per year, reflecting more active use. However, the most recent MOT pass showed no defects, providing a clean starting point for a buyer.
The KIA Rio shows a high average MOT pass rate of 91.2% across the 1,474 vehicles analysed in our database.
