We only have one joke that goes along with the award of "most improved," an honor mainly reserved for stoners whose moms worked in the high-school office. Now, Autobytel has named the 2006 Kia Rio Most Improved New Car for 2006, meaning it offers a better ride and more standard safety features, passenger space and horsepower than its competitors. With the base Rio starting at $11,110 (inc. destination), there's not much in its range to compare it with. Still, it's good to know at least one carmaker cares about stoners' English majors' motoring needs.
