Hot on the heels of the Kia Rio supermini, the Kia Picanto city car has been unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show.
Created in collaboration by Kia’s design centres in Namyang, Korea and Frankfurt, Germany, the new Picanto boasts a youthful, energetic look, using its new dimensions and bold body lines for a more assertive stance. A performance-inspired GT-Line model is available for the first time.
From launch this summer, the new Picanto will be available with 1.0 and 1.25-litre gasoline engines, with CO2 emissions from just 89 g/km. This winter, Kia will also offer the new model with the company’s new 1.0-litre turbocharged gasoline direct injection (T-GDI) power unit, producing 99bhp.
