Drivetrain

The typical sedan has a larger engine than the Kia Rio. Keep in mind that smaller engines are often cheaper to fix, but smaller engines can be stressed more.

Torque is the force that lets you accelerate quickly, and in this respect, the typical sedan is tremendously more powerful than the Kia Rio.
