Introducing the New Kia Picanto
Blending contemporary style, enhanced performance, and advanced technology, the new Kia Picanto sets a new benchmark for urban driving.
Designed to stand out from the crowd, this compact yet dynamic hatchback seamlessly combines practicality with a dash of sportiness, making it the perfect companion for navigating the bustling city streets.
Benefitting from a wide range of upgrades on the original Kia Picanto, this new and updated version is set to be a great addition to the Kia vehicle line-up.
Design and Practicality
The newly updated Kia Picanto showcases a captivating design inspired by Kia's 'Opposites United' philosophy, fusing the contrasting elements of nature and modernity to create a balanced whole.
The front end boasts a dramatic light signature, with a redesigned bumper, 'tiger nose' grille, fender, and bonnet.
Wheel options range from 14-inch to 16-inch, while the GT-Line variant exudes sportiness with distinctive elements and 16-inch diamond-cut wheels.
Inside, the new Picanto offers various finishes, including black cloth seats and optional Glossy Black accents. Colour packs such as Adventurous Green and Rich Brown also allow for further customisation.
Kia's commitment to sustainability is evident through the use of artificial leather, part of their plan to phase out leather usage. Future plans include incorporating sustainable materials and exploring bio-based options.
Technology and Safety
The new Kia Picanto offers advanced technology and safety features for an enhanced driving experience.
Standard features include an 8.0-inch 'floating' touchscreen navigation system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as well as Kia Connect services that provide live traffic information, weather forecasts, and remote route sending.
The new Picanto's safety features include Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Keeping Assist, and Emergency Stop Signal. It also benefits from Kia's renowned 7-year warranty.
With its advanced technology and comprehensive safety features, the new Kia Picanto delivers a secure and connected driving experience that instils confidence on the road.
Economy and Performance
A choice of two efficient engines are on offer with the new Kia Picanto: a 1.0-litre and a 1.2-litre petrol engine. The smaller of the two prioritises efficiency, whilst the larger 1.2-litre engine provides more power for high-speed driving. Both engines optimise performance while reducing emissions.
Available with a 5-speed manual or an Automated Manual Transmission (AMT), the Picanto combines fuel efficiency with the convenience of an automatic transmission.
With its nimble handling and stability, the Picanto is designed for urban driving. It features independent MacPherson strut front suspension, a torsion beam rear axle, and quick steering response. All of this helps the Picanto deliver an enjoyable and agile driving experience in any environment.
