Kia Picanto Specs & Dimensions

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.

The Picanto 2 looks smarter than the basic model thanks to its 14-inch alloy wheels, body coloured wing mirrors and chrome trimmed radiator grille. Equipment levels are pretty good – you get air-conditioning, electric windows all round, a steering wheel and gearknob that are leather trimmed and Bluetooth music streaming via the four-speaker stereo.

GT Line models are the pick of the bunch thanks to their smart looks and generous levels of equipment. Sporty bumpers, a twin exhaust pipe and 16-inch alloy wheels give the Picanto a pocket rocket appearance, although performance doesn’t live up to that. Kit is based on the 2 model so includes front and rear electric windows, a four-speaker stereo with Bluetooth music stream and air conditioning. On top of that you get heated door mirrors, faux (fake) leather upholstery and electrically adjustable door mirrors.

3 models come loaded with plenty of tech to keep you occupied. There’s an eight-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, DAB radio and automatic air conditioning. You also get a central armrest and cruise control.

The X-Line S gets some chunky front and rear bumpers and 16-inch alloy wheels, as well as chrome door handles to make it stand out. You also get a wireless charging pad for your phone, cruise control, keyless entry and heated seats.
