Used Kia Picanto
Revealed at the 2003 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Picanto was Kia’s new city car, based on a shortened platform from the Hyundai Getz. Tweaked for the European market, it got slightly more powerful engines and additional standard equipment, and proved a popular choice with money-savvy Brits.
‘Picanto’ relates to the Spanish word ‘picante’ for ‘spicy’, and Kia added some extra heat with the second-generation model, which was far more stylish and higher-quality than its predecessor. Kia expanded on those two things with the launch of a third-generation Picanto in 2017. A more powerful 1.0-litre turbocharged engine was also launched, alongside a more off-road-inspired ‘X-Line’ trim level.
