Written by Fiona Birkwood.
Kia Motors Corporation has released a titanium silver version of its Rio supermini, which has black bezel headlights and front fog car lights.
The Graphite Rio supermini also has integrated mirror indicators and 15-inch alloy wheels to enhance the car from the outside while standard features such as air-conditioning, alloy pedals, a metallic centre fascia, leather steering wheel and gear knob make for a stylish interior too.
Rio Graphite is available in 1.4 petrol and 1.5 CRDi engines for £9,395 and £10,395 respectively.
A new 1.1 Picanto Graphite has also been released with an extensive specification including 14-inch alloy wheels, remote central locking, front electric windows, leather steering wheel, rear spoiler, silver centre fascia and CD audio with iPod compatibility as standard.
For driver comfort, Graphite adds driver’s seat height adjust, tilt adjustable steering and air conditioning. This all comes for £8,495 including free metallic titanium silver paintwork.
Last month Kia unveiled its new Cadenza, the production version of its VG concept car.
The company describes the new vehicle as featuring "bold headlamp design with attention-grabbing LED surrounds" and "stylish tail-lights".
