on August 15 at the Hyundai plant in St. Petersburg will start production created especially for Russia Kia Rio, which will be different from the European and American versions
The picture of Constantine Vassilyeva (GZR No. 24, 2010) Kia Rio Kuzov Hyundai Solaris and Kia Rio have the same power structure, but are "covered" by completely different views. And the differences in detail only make the difference between related models. Kia on the front has a family "gills"-such as his "older brother" Kia Optima. The headlines on the sidewalls differ in location and shape. The external rear-view mirrors have different shells and can be used to accommodate the repeaters ' repeaters. The Kia is united in a single composition with a grille, and Hyundai's headlights have independent design elements. The hog is the hog of the Kia's radiator, and Hyundai is integrated into the front bumper. Because of this, Hyundai clearly has a connector bonnet, while the Kia has the upper edge of the grille grille. The hood of Kia is deprived of the longitudinal understalls that Hyundai has. Plastic linings, which end the glazing line, have different shapes. The base of the Russian Rio is Kia K2, which is intended for the markets of Southeast Asia, primarily Chinese. This model, unlike the European and American Kia Rio, has the same power structure of the Hyundai Solaris factory, which makes it easier to organize production of novelties in the same enterprise. In fact, we assumed that similar course of events last year (see para. GZR NO. 24, 2010). The only official image available at the time of the exit is the Russian Kia Rio is a skit. But it also gives an idea of how much Rio would look like K2. In fact, the difference between Hyundai Solaris and the domestic Kia Rio will be external and internal. Rio will get the family features common to all the latest models produced by Peter Schreyer. Which, before the difference in design between our Rio and the Asian K2, is, of course, possible. But the difference, if it does, will show up only in detail. Despite the seeming similarity of the Kia Rio and Hyundai Solaris front fog lamps, they are in fact very different from the shape of the Asian Kia K2. In one case they "nest" in the "gill slits" on the front wings (1). The more advanced option (2) is to place the turning points in the exterior rear-view mirrors. In such a case, Zhabres adorned the chrome riplings, but in preparing the Kia Rio to production in Russia it has been fully adapted for use in domestic climatic and road conditions. Enlarged road clearance and crankcase protection are designed to protect the new Rio from possible "injuries". In addition, the car was equipped with front and rear sprays and thoroughly worked out the corrosion protection of the body. The increased capacity accumulator is designed to ensure a confident start of the engine at low temperatures. The engineers of Kia took care of and good visibility under bad weather conditions by providing Rio with the windshield washer and heated windshield in the area of windshield wiper. In addition, the volume of the glass washer is increased to 4 litres, and the low level of liquid in it signals the sensor. Even for the upholstery of the salon we picked up the special dirty fabric of Clean Touch, and the onboard computer taught us to speak Russian. Korean twins do not differ from the outside. First and foremost, there is a difference in the architecture of the front bezel. The design of the instruments of the Central Kia's Central Console is very different, but Hyundai U Kia is practically inferior to Hyundai U, unlike Solaris, the gauges are sunk into deep wells of the Multimedia systems of both cars are able to lose files with USB sticks. The corresponding connector on Kia is covered with a rubber placeholder, as on mobile phones Remit to be added that since the beginning of production Kia Rio, the total number of employees of the service factory will reach 2,100 people and the enterprise will switch to a three-shift work schedule. As a result, by the end of 2011 buyers will find about 20,000. Kia Rio, and in 2012-already about 100,000. The base under Peter production in Russia will start exactly in a month, August 15. This means that the equipment at the plant in the Leningrad Region has already been established and has been established. First of all, this is a new stamp snap-in for Rio. It is not yet known which nodes and components will be immediately produced locally, but their nomenclature is likely to be wide. In addition to the launch of Hyundai Solaris in the last autumn, the Koreans in the vicinity of the plant have introduced a whole complex for the work of the internessers.
