Right oil for korean car (2013 Kia Rio 1.4 CVVT)

[J23]

Hello.

I have 2013 Kia Rio 1.4 gasoline - the car is pre first oil change (1500km) - but i'm not sure which oil should I use. The manual says that oil have to be ACEA A5 - in my country only Amsoil and Valvoline meets this requirement. I would go for Amsoil but it's very hard to get (not impossible, but hard enought to take Valvoline). The Valvoline offer two oils (according to their "choose right oil" site) - Syncpower FE 5w30 or Syncpower Env C2 5w30.

I want to know which will be beter for my engine - my driving is mostly city driving (70-80% of urban driving per year), short distances, and my mileage per year is 10-15K kilometers.

Bellow you can find links to the specification of Syncpower FE and ENV C2:

Syncpower FE 5w30

Syncpower ENV C2 5w30

Thank you in advance for your help.

The env oil is sn rated and the other is sl. On paper the env should be better.

Sure I can - there's one problem though: fakes.

Lots of fakes - and for what I know Valvoline is "made" (ladle?) in Holand, M1 in Poland. Nonetheless I'm using M1 0W40 in my other car (Hyundai Getz) and I'm happy with it.

Besides M1 have no oil that meet ACEA A5 (correct me if i'm wrong).
