2012 Kia Rio Exterior Design
STAND-OUT DESIGN
The 2012 Kia Rio 4-door reinterprets the smooth, chiseled lines of the upscale Kia Optima sedan to create a one-of-a-kind look that builds off the award-winning design esthetic of Peter Schreyer, Kia’s internationally celebrated Chief Design Officer. It expresses motion and emotion that sets it apart from every other car in its class. Stand out from crowd in the new Kia Rio 4-door.
HEADLAMPS
4-bulb type is standard. Projection lights and LED positioning lamps are optional.
LED REAR COMBINATION LAMPS
Split-design for an upscale appearance. LEDs also last longer, and consume very little electrical energy. Incandescent-type bulbs are used for the standard specification rear combination lamps. Premium LED lamps are optional.
WHEELS AND TIRES
Whether you select the basic steel rims with full wheel covers or one of the lightweight alloy wheels, Rio offers numerous choices to suit different tastes.
AERODYNAMIC FRONT BUMPER LIP
Fuel efficiency isn’t just about engines and transmissions: aerodynamics play an important role, too. So the Rio 4-door features wind-defying design details – like a front bumper lip that helps reduce aerodynamic drag.
17” ALLOY WHEELS
The Rio 4-door SX model features robustly styled, 17” alloy wheels with a sporty, performance-inspired look.
COUPE-LIKE SILHOUETTE
The Rio 4-door has a sweeping, coupe-like roofline – an appearance of movement and forward motion even when the car is standing still.
POWER-FOLDING SIDE MIRRORS
Luxury cars are known for their power-folding mirrors with integrated LED turn signals. This hallmark of luxury is now a standard feature on Rio 4-door EX models.

Hyundai Sonata design
Fluidic Sculpture
Design
The breathtaking exterior design of the 2012 Sonata
is the result of a design philosophy called Fluidic Sculpture. Fluidic
Sculpture considers the interplay of natural, fluid elements with the more
rigid surface and structures of a vehicle to create the impression of constant,
graceful motion.
The most visible result of this is the signature
chrome accent – extending from the headlamps along the hood edge back to the
side window line. The overall visual impression is that of a long, low, light
sedan that blends sportiness with elegance in equal measures.
All around, the Sonata’s bumper fascias and bumper
and body side mouldings accentuate Sonata’s fluid design. The chrome front
grille accentuates the Sonata’s groundbreaking design and highlights its polished
styling, while all models enjoy solar control glass windows with a windshield
sunshade band to decrease sun glare on bright days.
Enjoying the blue, sunlit skies or stargazing at
night is easy with Sonata’s available power tilt/slide sunroof. It comes with
an interior sliding sunshade and UV blocking to protect both you and your
interior, and is standard on the GLS and Limited models. New for 2012 is a
panoramic sunroof which includes a pop-up and slide section at front and fixed
glass section at back (available on Limited models).
The result is a refined, mature, sophisticated
sedan with a generous helping of thoughtful details. And these details are how
the world differentiates the extraordinary from the ordinary.

Features
The beauty of alloy wheelsThe
2012 Sonata comes standard with 16-inch steel wheels with attractive wheel
covers. For a sportier look, 16-inch 10-spoke alloys are standard equipment on

Be seen with side repeater mirrorsSonata’s
large side-view mirrors offer drivers a wide view of rear and side-rear traffic
for added safety, while available side repeater lights alert other drivers to
your intentions when turning or changing lanes.
Elegant chrome grille and hood garnishSonata
puts its best face forward with its stylish chrome grill – which picks up and
elongates the sculptured hood creases – highlighted with a matching chrome hood
garnish.
Dramatic signature chrome accentThe
most visible result of Sonata’s Fluidic Sculpture design is the signature
chrome accent – extending from the headlamps along the hood edge back to the
side window line – giving the visual impression of a long, low, light sedan
that blends sportiness with elegance in equal measures.
