Our reviews give you two perspectives. Jakub takes the perspective of the car enthusiast, while Yuri represents the interests of the general consumer. You won't find details about engine compression ratios here, instead you'll have real world opinions on what it's like to drive and own cars.
You are the only two people on this planet who could convince me to get a Kia
Ersan Seer totally agree!!
so true
Bob Goudreau
They might be reliable but, the dynamics aren't good at all really.
Also what about the engine issues and recalls?

watershed44 obviously better than honda LOL
That Pincher concept looks so legit
Holy shit yes, I got SOOOOO excited when I saw the 3D model, I'd buy the shit out of it.
take out the "H" and you have the pincer! much more marketable name!!
lol I’m finna
Looks soooo good I was actually surprised
Kiata any one?
The fact that you guys have now made me want a Kia Rio tells me that your videos are amazing and my small brain is very susceptible to marketing/propaganda.
That's pretty funny. Maybe we should be car salesman instead and make more money
Ask Tyler Hoover over at Hoovies Garage about the ins and outs of car sales v. youtube life. :) You guys are too good at car reviews to not do them!
Stephen Y - Love your comment! Can’t stop laughing 😂 😂😂😂
Message to KIA. I’m Japanese and have supported Japanese brands all my life. But the proposed Pincher by Yuri and TheStraightPipes would totally throw a wrench in my ways. Build it and I will buy!!
Tweet Kia with some screen shots!
Hyogo Marume I think we need to sign a petition or something. I also want that
also if they could make the pincher available/usable for taller folks. i would buy!!!!
I suspect that a lot of taller folks in search of the soft top life have similar thoughts!
I thought kia ddnt see its vehicles in japan. Or am i wrong?
Yes, KIA should make an affordable convertible with way more horsepower than the Miata!
Awesome Job!!!!! LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!
It's bonus video Saturday. Enjoy!
i have a suggestion guys. it would be great if you could do a quick test insert on how loud the car is on the inside. you could show the dB at idle cruising and max rippin. that would be soo good. And another thing if you could do is more night time reviews. Some cars just look waay better at night. Anyway keep up the good work guys. this is my go to car channel. other channels are soooo boring. this is fun and light hearted and not too nerdy. TheStraightPipes FTW!!
Damn straight! Birthday Straight Pipes woooooo.
You guys really turned me onto Kias recently! Was never a fan, but that is changing. A dealership is currently bringing up a Forte5 turbo + manual for me to look at. I get the feeling that I may be trading my current daily driver in!
what about feedback from the wheel? do you get any information from it? and what about from chassis, any communication to the driver? im not bothered with HP because i drive each day 120km. but im looking for a communicative car thats fun but still good on mpg and doest cost a lot. which car would you suggest? does rio fit in here?
KIATA!
If there is one automotive channel that deserves 1m+ subs it's you guys. Even the most professionally set up channels don't do 3D models of cars they'd like to see or renditions of what cars look like if ______. All with a genuine sense of humor and fun. You are the only channel that could review a 600HP BMW and then come back the next week to make a KIA Rio seem just as fun.
Thanks!
Evan J I agree 100%. It bothers me that this channel isn't bigger!
Evan J Couldn't Say Better!
EliteSlayer542 they were at 120k subscribers about 2 weeks ago, if they keep averaging 7-10k subscribers a week, they'll get somewhere. For an automotive channel; that's a pretty rapid rate considering most of the ones I watch sit within a 10k following window for months and in some cases years. I hope this channel goes far.
Exactly. Most big channels dont even bother to at least take a close video of what they are talking about. They just record it from a meter away. These guys are the best. So glad i came across this channel. Also like the fact that they dont say cars are bad just because of their brand's past.
Hakuna Matata? More like HeyKia, Miata.
So, I bought a 2019 Kia Rio recently (last Friday actually) with exactly the same features as the one you tested. Except it's in black. The 2019 is same as the '18 and the price about the same. I tested the Mirage, Versa, Micra and even a FRS - used...As someone who gets buyers remorse time to time, I'm happy to report I'm VERY happy - thus far - with my choice. The six-speed is awesome and I can't wipe the smile off my face as I throw through the gears. My one major "want" was a manual tranny. I just didn't think this was going to be so sweet. Great review. Thanks.
Thanks for the earnest feedback. I'm shopping around and this is exactly what I want to read.
That's awesome! Do you still like it?
@@KF1 Yes! Almost two years and 28k on the odom and I still look forward to getting into it every morning.
Also, no issues with weird anomalies. Just routine maintenance!
Awesome on gas even when throwing through the gear box revving to 5k between shifts. No remorse!!
Man the rio is what the old 90s early 2000s civic use to be a simple refined vehicle that can be fun but economical
Yup, a buddy in high school in 98 had one of them dx hatchbacks. Was the shit !
Would you buy a car without air conditioning and cruise control in 2018? What about that Pincher though...

I actually want the pincher! :D
I would buy the Kia LittleMiniPincher in a heartbeat
This review actually had me thinking I could sell my 4Runner TRD Pro, buy this and pocket close to 20K. I mean, 20 rewinding sat radio stations man! Oh "Mini Pinscher" -- definitely.
Let us know how it went?
You should send Kia your renderings!
Straight Pipes is on fire. Great review guys!
i remember ,which wasnt too long ago, they only had 6k subs! well done guys!
I just got a rio hatch as my first car ever(2018 250 miles), and before you kill me, it's an auto. But I have good reasoning! Basically I got the top model with a ton of features, yes yuri it has android auto and apple carplay, which made my mom happy, and the craziest thing is that I got the TOP model, only 1 year old(2018), an it's the same price as the 2019 BASE model(with no a/c). It's $4,000 cheaper than the 2019 same top model as well. It's a steal if you ask me an I love it. Oh and the gas mileage is great, cost 25 for a full tank an I fill it up about every 2 and a half weeks.
5:34 holy shit, Kia take some notes there!!!
They already did lol
Thanks for the shout out guys. My son Chase is going to be so happy. We have been waiting for this video. Great episode as always, and also the mini pincher is an awesome idea.
Say hi to Chase for us
I love these reviews because even when it's a car I don't care about or really have an interest in I still get a lot out of the videos.
Whatever car you guys review is so entertaining. It's great you guys review affordable cars that people actually drive
HydroBandit agree. The sporty luxurious cars are fun to watch but this is actually useful. I am looking for a city car and this review made me reconsider the Rio :)
This channel is great! Great sense of humor and fun whilst reviewing. Subbed!
Change that corner water mark from subscribe to your so much good looking logo. Please.
Hey guys.. I was looking for a small car to get to work and landed at kia. I was blown away by the rio. Its biggest selling point is that it feels and looks more expensive. Not to mention that it’s super smooth and spacious for its size. I ended up getting a kia soul ex tech because I got a demo for a steal and I prefer the ride height. Your video on the soul makes me wish they had a deal on a turbo so I am keeping my eyes open for one now.
Keep it up
James from montreal
James Miguel same from Montreal
Li Samuel Fellow Montrealer checking in!
James Miguel elantra sport turbo man, great value for money!
Motortrend pitched the idea for the miata.
Imagine if the mini pincher goes into production for real :D
That would be SO awesome. I really liked the render in the video.
The infotainment screen looks like a hand held video game system
Aw yeah! Bonus video! You guys have seriously become one of my favorite automotive channels! I even got my brother to watch you guys and we have a good laugh about the visor test and satellite radio rewind when we see each other.
On a separate note, I really think Kia/Hyundai/Genesis have become some of my favorite car brands. They literally cater to the enthusiast crowd. Not only that, but they offer some luxury features in a base car (like heated seats AND STEERING) that aren't even an option in some top trims of other vehicles. I mean, a base Audi I used to have did not even have heated seats and this Rio has heated seats and steering. That is awesome!
It makes me sad that people continue to dismiss Kia/Hyundai/Genesis. These brands are really pushing themselves away from their previous image of being cheap, disposable cars, especially with cars like the Stinger and even this Rio. Moreover, it makes me sad to see enthusiasts dismissing these cars. Enthusiasts want high horsepower, luxury, RWD (or AWD) cars, and Kia literally gives them that with the Stinger and yet "enthusiasts" dismiss it because they are worried about depreciation. Come on, guys and gals. Really? You are the ones who are supposed to go out and buy the Stinger to promote the brand image, which subsequently convinces more people to buy the brand and respect it, thus increasing resale value. Then the same people will inevitably complain that there are "no cheap, fun, RWD (or AWD) vehicles."
After seeing what Kia/Hyundai/Genesis has been doing, I have been actively convincing my own parents to buy a Stinger due to how luxurious, attractive, and fun it is.
Support these brands that cater to fun and excitement before they are gone for good!
Do you test visors with your brother? You should
TheStraightPipes Yes! When we look at cars together, we do the visor test lol!
How's your timing? That's critical to a good visor test
TheStraightPipes We definitely need to work on it. It could definitely be better lol.
Very well said sir! I feel the same way too.
Kiata?
differenttigers underrated comment
Kittanna.
Can you do a series with this car and turn it into as aggressive sporty as possible?
Isn't the koup version sporty?
Might as well make you guys Automotive TV presenters. But that would ruin the charm of this channel!!
We'll still do the channel. Just with more money haha
TheStraightPipes Yeess
I always knew Jakob and Yuri were time travelers sent from the future (August 16, 2020 at the 02:50 videomark). I thought cars would be more advanced than this Kia Rio in the future.
I have a 2012 Rio in automatic, and though I like the features of the car, I hate the transmission. I previously had a Hyundai Accent (2013) in manual, and it was far better.
With this low power, buy manual.
When Yuri finally gets into a car with a good satellite rewinding radio...then he is baffled by it. Message to the world, he wasn't ready 😏
5years ago i was going thru a hard time so i traded in my 2012 mercedes e550 for 2017 rio lx plus 6spd. Although it was slow, it was so fun to drive and cheap on everything. I still miss this car..
It's like if 90s Honda got revived as a Korean brand. This is the new EK hatch!
This bonus is way better than the one i get at work 😍
Edit: i hope my manager doesn't read this 🙂
Hahahahahah
Come to my office on monday Karen.
You guys are the friggin best! I love your reviews and you rep Canada to the fullest!
I was not going to watch this, b/c kia rio. But i was bored and its straight pipe, so i clicked. Man i was not disappointed nor regret.
Rio has improved a lot.
What a typical brand snob 🤣
m haz. He specifically said Rio... a car that was honestly beneath the rest of the Kia brand when it came out. Im a fan of cheap light weight boxes and even then I could never justify the 1st gen and hardly consider the 2nd. Its not a brand thing, its a crappy car thing.
@@DrewLSsix: I know what you mean. I live just outside of San Francisco and prefer a subcompact hatchback because of the tight parking situation on San Francisco's streets. I put 141,000 miles on a 2013 Rio LX hatchback, and while it was ultra-reliable, my main gripe was how terribly inadequate the suspension quality was for California's badly maintained roads...going over even moderate potholes was something you really had to brace for.
What got me into the 2018 Rio was when I had to rent one for 4 days on a long weekend trip in the Pacific Northwest. May as well have been a completely different car. Similar body dimensions, but the newest generation is much more refined...and the suspension is far and away the biggest improvement. Handles (almost) all of California's potholes pretty well, and combined with better power delivery and acceleration at the lower RPM's, and sport mode for when I need that extra ooomph, plus more interior space and comfort....yeah, it's legitimately a comfortable city and freeway car that feels sturdy at 80 MPH. Great value for the money.
Kia - make the pincher. Also make a coupe a version for the countries where it always rains (here in the UK); you can call it "Pinched". I think the cars that are "underpowered" are generally more fun; all you need is, comfortable seats, great gear changes, good induction and exhaust sounds and fun handling then it doesn't matter on power; just rev it out and you're still under speed limit with a huge grin in your face... I really miss my Suzuki Swift Sport.
9:19 you missed an opportunity to have Yuri in the Navigator and Jacob in the Rio.
e1337prodigy I want these two to review the Swift Sport so bad! They can do a series where they go to Europe and drive all three generations of the Sport and maybe even the Swift GTi !!!!
Great review. I found my future kid's first car. Manual transmission ftw
how about some kind of gti version of rio with the 1.6lt turbo and costs only 6k CAd more ? i think that would be the best money/fun ratio car :) btw i loved the pincher kia please listen to these guys!
What! Whattt! WHATTTTTT!! only you guys can make even a Kia seem fun. Like seriously! I am officially a fan! This is what love for cars is all about. Open mindedness to all manufacturers and genuine appreciation of the automobile. In my view you guys are right there with the top channels/shows.
I'd buy this car if it had a minimum of 190hp. 130 is just too low for me but I like everything else about it
Love the one hand visor closing, guess practice makes perfect. Great job guys!
Lol you guys made me click my ears several times thinking that my ears were under pressure.
As for the car, there's something to be said about cheap AND reliable transportation. People tend to forget that these small cars are also cheap maintenance and great for the DIY'er. This is coming from a 2008 Yaris Sedan with manual transmission owner.
It's fun watching you two. Keep it up!
Great review as usual guys! Also YAAAAAS to the Kia Miata rival!
Bought 2019 Rio automatic but drives really great. Wasn't going to pay 30 grand for a car. I want cars to stay around this budget point really enjoyable car. First month I had it took it on a 4 hour trip gas was good burned about half a tank maybe. And did great on highway and towns we drove through
I think Kia built that satellite radio just for Yuri
I would totally buy that mini pincher!! They totally should make it. Come on Kia!!
This episode sums up what I love about TheStraightPipes. More like this, please!
Awesome! Great review with the manual transmission! :) I'm always looking for options with cars that have a manual transmission. Thanks my dudes!
I love how honest your reviews are on each car you get to test. You really get to the great details of each car instead of comparing them to your favorite car in the segment like many other TH-cam reviewers. You just sold a $16K Kia Rio to your fans a much as you did a $187K BMW. Keep up the good work!
P.S. The Pincher idea is phenomenal
I actually just enjoyed driving it. Simple pleasures.
Awesome video guys loved the enthusiasm for the Rio you both have! Crazy enough, I actually own a 2018 Kia Rio and a Modified 2016 Kia rio! Would love if you would check out my 2016 modified one! I will DM you some photos on your IG!
Kia Pincher is an awesome concept. Nice rendering.
Love reviews of budget cars! Car tax is super high (180% of price) where I live, so these are super relevant and interesting!
A slow car fast on a beautiful road, yessss
I actually bought a 2018 Rio LX simply because it was cheap, good on gas, and had a 6MT. I got sick of spending $500 a month on premium in my C35 Laurel. There is a bit of delay when you blip the throttle, which makes downshift rev matching quite difficult. But then again, it is a base model Kia.
The Little Pinscher is a great idea! Awesome episode, guys. Thumb's up.
I want a pincher! I loved this video..been thinking about a Rio... this has pushed me to go test drive one...wonder how it handles in the snow
I own a 2015 rio since new, put blizzak on the thing and it is the best winter car i had yet. Not an awd, but the traction control give you grip without excess slippage so you can accelerate even on climbing a hill. It give you confidence even in the worst winter storm....excellent traction control, bravo kia
I have the 2015 Rio LX+ Sedan with the same 6-Speed manual stick...and seems like you'guys the only people who shared exactly the same verdict that it's really a fun car to drive. Nicely equipped with heated front seats, 4-wheel disk brakes, AC, cruise, traction and stability control, infotainment, etc. Surprised that the hp has gone down from 138 to 130. I still remember the smile in my face as I drove away from the dealer. I am fully satisfied with the car and my only pet peeve is the low passenger seat with no height adjustment. I've put up 60K+ km and so far nothing has wrong! I got it for about $12K that time, very frugal on gas, comfortable and very reliable. If KIA will make this neat 1.6 liter turbo available with the Rio...maybe that's the time for me to think about trading, lol!
🙂
Test drove the LX+ Auto a couple of weeks ago, and the Accent with the same 6 speed earlier that morning. I found the reverse 'trigger' on the shifter a little awkward too. I think you guys nailed that. Was really impressed with the new Rio, especially compared to the first new car I ever owned - an '03 Rio RX-V. The 1.6 is much more refined today than it was 15 years ago. I do wish they'd have kept the longer 'mini wagon' profile the RX-V had. It was my favourite thing about that car. I find the '18 model to look a little Golf-like, personally. Not that it's a bad thing. It's reserved, but looks sharp. You can see some VW/Audi influence there from Peter Schreyer at play, definitely.
Chris Pollard, A mini-wagon, medi-wagon, or maxi-wagon would always be a better option than an ordinary hatch.
That was the beauty of it. It was the exact same size as the sedan, but with all the extra space above where the trunk was. Now, it didn't have the space my 87 Crown Vic wagon had (miss that car) - but for the size of it, and the few extra mpg, it was pretty great.
Chris Pollard, The whole world misses the Crown Vic wagon . You can always watch "The Fabulous Baker Boys" for a nostalgic glimpse of a Crown Vic wagon in its prime ;)
So on point that you mentioned buying this for your kid. I had my daughter in mind the whole review. This is a really solid package for the money. Good job once again, guys!
"You wanna pass on the highway you go from 6 to 3 and you send it."
Yup, thats how it's done.
This video want me to buy new kia rio 6 speed manual gearbox
I would totally buy a Kia Pincher! As for the Rio - some stickier tires, a mild tune and maybe some stiffer springs for a budget fun to drive car.
Crazy that in canada you get heated seats and steering wheel as standard!
In australia none of that is even an option haha but over here we need cooled seats and steering wheels :D
Love your work!
We don’t get those options here in the USA I know crazy but at least you guys in Australia get the gt line turbo rio
First comment for first time and my answer is no to buy a car with out air conditioning
Amazing video as always
They've ruined the body style of those Kia Rio5's. They look so generic, boring and boxy now, like 1980s style hatchbacks. I like the 2012-2017 body style WAY better.
it seems like every car you guys review now is a manual. Would be cool if you could make a 'How to drive a manual' to go along with all these!
Apparently this car is a time machine. The date on the infotainment is August 16, 2020...
I bought that car yesterday
Congrats
How are you complain about the heated steering wheel being weak when most luxury cars don't even have heated steering wheels? These complaints are petty as f.
I hope you guys will review the Genesis G70 2.0T with manual gear box when it comes in the summer
In 3 weeks yes
I was a NISSAN driver. I had 5 in my driving life, 2 of them from brand new. Then, to save money, I got a motorbike to get to work. My parents hated the bike, so they GAVE me their KIA RIO. Since then I have bought 2 brand new Rio's and I am driving a Kia Cerato, bought brand new.
I am not rich by any means even though I get new cars. I find the KIA warranty on a new car is worth the extra money at time of purchase. So, when I looked at a Nissan that was priced FROM $16,990.00, and found that by the end of negotiations it was actually $5,000.00 away from it, and I could get a Kia Rio for $15990.00 drive away...You work it out!
Sure manual is great when you're all alone on some winding road in the middle of nowhere. Not so great when you're sitting in bumper-to-bumper Boston traffic for 8 hours a day like me. Give me an automatic any day.
8 hours
I drive manual daily even when I lived in LA in the LA traffic. It isn't bad
I love that the Rio comes with manual transmission. Although I think is pushing too much to compare it to a Miata, I think is a good car for the price, like you said. I would have preferred to hear comparisons to a Honda Fit for instance. At 10:13 you keep on saying Porscha instead of 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗲 which ends with "eh". That's the right pronunciation. th-cam.com/video/G6raQS0z5DY/w-d-xo.html 0:29; 1:17, 2:27, etc are examples on how to pronounce it correctly. Es ist nicht zu kompliziert. ;o) Wonderful review. Thanks! I liked the Pincher. There is always something extraordinary on your tests. Keep it up!
On a Saturday? Alllllright!!!!
Hatchbacks/wagons are severely underated and underappreciated in NA.
A hatchback hauls as much as its counterpart crossover with much better handling and fuel consumption
that is an interesting car to review. I like that you guys aren't pretentious.. so refreshing. That being said, I'm a total snob and wouldn't drive that car to check my mail lol
You wouldn't think twice about jumping in, driving it and being grateful if zombies were chasing you.
I picked up a 2020 rio lx+ almost two weeks ago. I wanted a commuter car that was good on gas. With the 6 speed MT I couldn’t be happier. Rev Hang in the first few gears is something to get used to but not enough to make me regret anything.
Just chose Straight Pipes over PornHub. Notifications squad!
What somebody needs to do is slap some coilovers on this thing, some fatter and stickier rubber, and a bump to 180bhp, and you'd have a fucking RIOT machine.
That Pincher render is badass.
Here in Mexico where the Rio its made the EX version Manual 6spd its around $14,200 usd, it include sunroof cruise control 7inch stereo 6 airbags led headlights proyectors parking sensors back camera and 17 wheels , one of the best deals in cars here in Mexico
It's a cheap Audi basically
Someone at Kia Headquarters in Seoul is furiously scribbling notes for the Kia Pincher. Expected launch date September 2022. Good job guys.
You guys are killing it. I want a Rio now.
Getting the manual transmission in the lower trims might not be so bad. After all, I'm pretty sure I could get a set of Watanabe wheels and tires for less than the added cost of the next trim with alloys, and keep the original steelies for the winter or the track.
This, in a nutshell, explains why I love my 109hp 2000 civic coupe DX manual so much still. You can have so much fun, body roll and all and not get into any trouble. Awesome review! Also, Yuri? what was the issue with the sound, and how would you fix it? (I also do video production so im curious to understand the problem). Thanks!
AS, I wonder if this Kia will last 18 years like your Civic.
Only time will tell! If Kia and Hyundai are under the same brand, perhaps not? I had a friend with a 2012 Sonata and he had all sorts of recall issues with it, including one along the lines of "engine may randomly stop working altogether!" IMHO, I am impressed with how much better Kia and Hyundai have come recently. But I can't speak to their overall reliability.
AS, They have improved a lot but will they ever match the Hondas of those bygone days?
I don't think even the current model civics match the old ones. They still have great value and great transmissions, but they're larger, not as nimble, and replaced V-TEC with turbos. They're good cars, but just not the same.
As always awesome review. You guys truly rock, I have told everyone I know about this channel and they love it too. Lastly I’ll say...Mini Pincher lol
Awesome thanks for sharing
I want to see you review some Alpha Romeos. Specifically the Giulia.
Chris K Alfa
shit, you're right. lol
They don't have the "+" model in the US. We're stuck with the crappy base MT in white, grey or black. No nice blue, no heated steering wheel. Sad!
Shout out to Canadian product planners
It's frustrating that literally every Hyundai/Kia in Canada has a heated steering wheel standard, whereas you have to get a fully loaded Sonata before you can get one in the US, it's not even an option on the Elantra. Maybe it's because their US HQ is in Southern California, I wonder if it'd be different if they were in Detroit or some other northern city.
guys plz do another electric car challenge like if you agree
We will
i just wanted to say i love your vids
and can you do the nissan leaf 2018
i bought this car, automatic, brand new. 78000 km on it and its still great. no recalls, no problems. great car. buy it used and you get incredible value.
So is this a Kiata?
Nice!
i like cars that are more base model, not even just for price. Having 100 little infotainment options and electronic gadgets that i dont need and will just break in 5-10 years doesn't appeal to me. also it feels patronizing somehow for the car to think im such a pussy as to need three way heated steering wheels and stuff like that.
Anyone know the street that cliche corner is?
Jeb Bush Between Milton and Oakville. 43.475053,-79.797570
AWESOME thanks +Richard Richard!
Ya i really wanted to know that as well
I'm considering a used 2016 Kia Rio. This review is convincing me to get it. I want a fun drive...in a commuter car!
I love the visors 😂👌
So not fair....the Canadian manual gets power windows. In the US the manual is completely stripped.
