Kia welcomed the third-generation Picanto in 2017, ushering in a whole new design for the compact city car inside and out. With the new generation comes plenty of changes, complemented by the revised version launched locally recently.

The new Kia Picanto is certainly one sporty and elegant little car. Oozing with contemporary style, this diminutive South Korean beauty has been streamlined to deliver a concise, less-confusing, and greatly improved small city driver, not to mention provide buyers with an extremely affordable quality car offering.
