The second generation of the Kia Picanto received a facelift in 2015 and was revealed at the Geneva Motor Show. It was available in a 3- and 5-door configuration and its design was revised: new headlights accompanied new front and rear bumpers.
The car is equipped with either a 1.0-liter or a 1.25-liter Kappa engine and meets the EU6 emissions regulations.The three-cylinder 1.0-liter unit delivers 68 hp through a 5-speed manual gearbox, while the 1.25-liter four-cylinder develops 84 hp and was paired with either a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic transmission.
Even if this is a small car, occupying only 3.6 meters on the road, it has an exceptional cabin space and the luggage capacity is 200 liters. The model uses Kia's steering system MDPS (Motor-Driven Power Steering), which allows the driver to control the car with greater maneuverability.
Safety wise, the Picanto is equipped with a full range of electronic features that were designed to prevent accidents. The electronic safety equipment includes: ESC, VSM (keeps the car on course on slippery conditions), ABS, EBD and BAS (Emergency Brake Assist). The Picanto is also equipped with front, side and curtain airbags and front seat-belt pretensioners.
Kia was well known for the warranty offered for its models and is thought to be the best in the business: 7 years. The warranty is transferable to the next owner if a criteria is still met.
