This is a common issue with Kia Rios, especially in colder climates. One possible solution is to check the battery and make sure it is fully charged and in good condition. Another solution is to use a block heater to warm up the engine before starting it in cold weather.

I had the same problem with my Kia Rio. It turned out to be an issue with the spark plugs. I recommend checking and potentially replacing them if necessary. Also, make sure to let the car warm up before driving in colder weather.

I've had similar issues with my Kia Rio and found that using a fuel additive can help improve cold weather starting. Additives like dry gas or fuel stabilizers can prevent moisture build-up in the fuel lines, which can cause starting issues.
