What's the 2016 Kia Rio LX oil type?

The 2016 Kia Rio LX uses SAE 5W-20 from the factory, and typically a synthetic blend. You're free to switch to a conventional, but there's no reason You should, even being price conscious. In fact, You should consider going to 5W-30 in this vehicle to achieve a little better fuel economy, or even 10W-30 if You live somewhere that doesn't typically sees temperatures below zero. If You're completely changing out Your oil, it'll take 3.8 quarts, which includes how much pools in the filter. Your vehicle is compatible with the WIX51334-EA oil filter, which runs around $10. A jug of oil will run You around $30 if You go with a full synthetic for Your Rio.
