The Kia Picanto is spacious, well-designed, and generously fitted. Having a light steering and a turning radius of 4.6 metres make it ideal for squeezing in and out of tight spaces, maneuvering in city traffic, while also ensures effortless parking.
Kia gave the model a new life by giving it a facelift, with a new front grille, and new headlights. As before, it's still a five-door, ideal for families with young children.
We can expect the new Picanto to be a hit. After all, it has great design (interior and exterior wise) and very much suit our city roads.
Exterior
The new Picanto is simply charming. The frame of this car is simply a beauty. At first glance, the new Picanto looks nothing different from the old model. They are both cute and still as distinctive as ever due to its grille, giving it a baby tiger look.
But the car has a new front bumper design, a new front Schreyer grille, and new black bezel headlights, all of which gives the Picanto a fresher look. Between the new and the old Picanto, the new has a revised rear bumper and lights. Together, the changes saw an increment of about 40mm in the overall length.

Fundamentally, the Picanto is still a really small five-door hatchback. Its taillights are now rounded and have a sportier feel to it.
Topping it off is an eye-catching exterior that will surely make an impression.
Not only compact, the Picanto comes in a range of vibrant colours. The one I tested was Scarlet Red. Overall, Kia has somehow provided for the sportiness, functionality, and unconventionality people seem to crave these days.
Generally, the Kia Picanto is good for style. The fluid lines of the sides paint dynamism and fun, while the build speaks solidity. But the big changes can be found inside, in which the commitment to fun continues. The cabin had a significant overhaul and resultedly is now simply better.
