Because strength and safety go hand in hand

The all-new Rio uses more than 51% Advanced High Strength Steel (AHSS), which is a more than 54% increase from the previous model. This equates to phenomenal body rigidity, enhancing cabin protection as well as dynamic performance.
The all-new Rio features hot-stamping of components in 8 core stress areas. The strengthened body structure helps provide improved crash protection.
With almost three times the structural adhesive applied compared to the previous generation, the all-new Rio is more rigid yet lighter, and features improved noise, vibration and harshness management.

Inspiring technology for new levels of safety

STRAIGHT-LINE STABILITY (SLS)
STRAIGHT-LINE STABILITY (SLS)

As you brake in a straight path, SLS senses any difference in applied brake pressure between right and left wheels, and adjusts pressure to counteract yaw and maintain straight-line stability.

When braking or turning, ESC regulate engine torque and distribute braking force independently, slowing down safely with maximum control. With the Motor Driven Power Steering, VSM helps stable condition when simultaneously braking and cornering.
