Exhaust Pipe Kia Rio

An exhaust pipe for a Kia Rio is a critical part of the vehicle's exhaust system designed to direct emission gases safely away from the engine. It is available for various Kia Rio generations and engine types, including 1.0 T-GDI, 1.2 16v (G4LA), 1.25 CVVT, and 1.4 16V engines. These pipes meet European emission standards such as Euro 5 and Euro 6, with lengths ranging approximately from 430 mm to 750 mm, and can be positioned at the front or center of the exhaust system. Compatibility depends on engine code and transmission type, so proper matching is essential.

Compatibility varies by generation and engine. Here are key compatibilities:

• Rio II JB 1.4 16V (2005-2011)
• Rio III UB 1.25 CVVT (up to 2014)
• Rio IV (YB, SC, FB) 1.0 T-GDI
• Rio 1.2 16v G4LA (2017-2020 and up to 2024)
• General models with diverse engines and Euro-compliant standards

Check the engine code (e.g., G4LA, G3LC) and transmission type for precise fitment. OEM references like 286101W260 are used for some 2014-2016 models.
