Kia Release Sketches of 2012 Rio Hatchback, will Debut in Geneva



Kia has big plans for this year's edition of the Geneva Salon as along with the 2012 Picanto city car, the South Korean automaker will also host the world premiere of the 2012 Rio supermini, the first official sketches of which were released today.
