05 Jul 2016|2,266 views
With the new Picanto '1 Air' offered at the same price as the old '1' model, it means that this new entry-level version gains air conditioning as a free upgrade. This model also now benefits from Bluetooth, a leather-trimmed steering wheel and front seat belt height adjustment as standard.
The new mid-range 'SE' grade has all the equipment that was standard on the previous 'SR7', plus automatic air-conditioning and Kia's Intelligent Stop & Go (ISG) engine start-stop system with the manual gearbox. This grade is offered with a 1.0-litre three-cylinder engine and a manual gearbox, or a 1.25-litre four-cylinder unit with automatic transmission.
The new Picanto 'Sport' sharp looks are enhanced by stylish new front and rear bumpers and a twin-tipped exhaust tailpipe. There are also additional side sill mouldings painted to match the body colour. The 'Sport' models are finished in exclusive red, black or white paintwork. Sporty-looking five-barrel 15-inch alloy wheels shod with 175/50 tyres are the final finishing touch.
This is complemented by the equally sporty interior. The seats are in grey/black faux leather with striking red cloth cushions and backrests to match the inserts on the doors. There are aluminium pedals with non-slip rubber pads, while the centre fascia, steering wheel bezel and gearshifter top are finished in classy gloss black. Standard equipment includes satellite navigation, automatic air-conditioning, cruise control and a speed limiter.
