Just called Rio there? In US it was Rio Cinco.

Our wagon debuted for MY 2002 too.

According to my price lists didn't have any particular name, probably because here the sedan version was imported only for a short time and sold very poorly, whereas you could see the wagon around ;)

August 2000+ in Germany. It was only called Rio and the hatchback was the main body style; the sedan came about three-quarters of a year later, sold poorly (typical for small sedans in Germany, hence why we don't have the Jetta 7) and was discontinued in 2002.

Our market labels these as “mini-wagons”. I always thought they were hatchbacks. :wow: thanks for the updates.

It seems IMCDb is using the correct code for these as pulling VINs indicate [DC]. I checked wagon and sedan for US market.

Same story here more or less Gamer :lol: only that the sale period for the Sedan here was 2003-05 (I checked, I would have said less time since they were very rare)

I remember when I was a kid there was an article on Auto Bild about a special offer on this car that impressed me a lot: 5 years free maintenance including spare parts and tyres for a starting price of about 10.000 euro. The parents of a schoolmate of mine bought one after reading this as a replacement for an Opel Astra F.

IIRC here they were £6,000 new, which was really cheap, only really Peroduas and other really small cars were cheaper. I also vaguely remember an advertising campaign with a massive picture of £1 coin as they were selling them with a finance offer with £1 deposit.

We only got the hatch, and it didn't come until July 2001.
