Review
Good fuel economy, drive like a big cc car. Basic yet good interior design. Better 0 - 100km/h in sec than published with unmod engine. Good features like glove compartment light, air con filter, hook on seat for slightly change in 2nd edition Picanto. More refined front grille this time round. Feature 2 rear light instead of 4 from latest facelift which doesnt look that nice. Free theme stickers, leather seat, fog light and accessories like Branded 7" DVD touchscreen, good value for money. Big side mirror, but does not look as nice as the previous one. Leathered seat and sport rims and fog lamp, wow!
Excellent gear shift feel except for some glitch with clutch occasionally. Fuel Consumption, for city ride is at least 15km/l, for light footed can go as far as 17 - 18km/l. Worst of all time, hot weather, traffic jam, plus heavy footer with passenger always, you will get ard 14km/l. Those who walk like ghost, a loner, air con is not necessary, just like a 'Shell' challenger can go more than 20km/l.
Poor sound insulation, bad suspension over hump, but quite well supported with big sized on board. Dislike lock knob visible from outside and difficult to unlock for passenger. No split for back seat and no power for side mirror and rear window. Stock steel wheel is dangerous (proven) and lousy if you ever get one, sports rim should be by default now. No more same interior colour sprayed to exterior this time round. However all these are negligible for price like this.
Though tank is small, good fuel economy. Low fuel lights up when 30l used up, tank spec as 35l, therefore 5l considered as reserved. 3L engine oil only. All in all, damn good report card for a Korean Car and fuel economy.

The choice of most budget car buyers. I simply can't understand why there are some people who would choose the Chery QQ over this car. At just $3K to $4K extra, the Picanto is worth every cent.
