Kia Picanto trims

RRP from £9,720

The Picanto 1 is the cheapest model in the range – easily spotted by its plastic wheel trims. Inside, you get electric front windows, remote central locking, a two-speaker stereo and automatic headlights, but air-conditioning is something you’ll have to do without.

This is the mid-range GT Line model which gets colourful eye-catching looks
The Picanto is easy to drive but is at its best around town
The 255-litre boot is a decent size for a small car
Mid-range GT-Line trim cars get aluminium trims, two-tone leather upholstery, sporty metal pedals… and an ugly infotainment screen
Trendy trim inserts such as this are standard on mid-range GT-Line models
The standard stereo system looks ugly but comes with Bluetooth and a USB port
The handy display between the dials is standard on mid-range Picanto models
Space in the back is good for children but legroom is tight for adults
The 255-litre boot is a decent size for a small car
Top-spec GT-Line S models come with an adjustable boot floor as standard while the two hooks on the sides are standard across the range
The Picanto gets buffeted around by strong gusts of wind
Get the 1.25-litre engine – the smaller petrol engine is woefully slow
The Picanto is available with an automatic gearbox but it's well worth avoiding because it's slow and jerky
