For a Rio5 destined to navigate downtown streets at rush hour, it can be acceptable. As long as you and your SX Tuner are merely extras in the next installment of the The Fast and the Furious. Kia Canada does allow you to save face though: the SX Tuner is also available with a manual transmission.
But some buyers are looking for the style without necessarily needing the performance. If they're ready to shell out several thousand dollars (that they won't get back on resale) to tune a tiny thing not even four metres long, the Kia dealer may just offer the ideal solution. After all, the SX Tuner is a new car benefiting from one of the best guarantees in the industry. It's nothing like the decrepit, used subcompact cars that are transformed into pseudo-machines with the help of lots and lots of money.
