A new Kia Picanto
A jazzy, stylish little car-about-town that's top notch for value
The Kia Picanto is a smart little city car that is enjoyable to drive and loves nothing better than whizzing around town.
Kia Picanto
The Picanto received a facelift in 2015 that has brought it bang up to date. It’s a brilliant car for value as your running costs will be very low plus the Kia’s 7-year warranty is unbeatable.
If you’re looking for a neat compact car that is attractive, spacious and excellent value then this could suit you down to the ground. Best of all you can bag yourself a brand new Kia Picanto with a £500 deposit and we’ll pay for your first 12 months’ insurance with us. Where we’re unable to pay the full amount, we’ll offer you a contribution to Marmalade insurance or cash towards your insurance elsewhere.
Reasons to love the Kia Picanto
Sleek new design
Since its update, the Picanto looks far more stylish with a sporty, fresh design. It still retains its cuteness with the rounded curves and bug-eyed headlamps. There’s plenty of lively colours to choose from too especially if you opt for the five door model, so you can add some fun. Bold dazzling tones include Lemongrass and Fuchsia Blush.
Inside the Picanto is smart and comfortable with enough room to easily sit four adults.
A decent drive
The visibility is good on the Picanto and the steering is light and easy to manoeuvre so you’ll have no problem with tight parking spaces. Even with the most basic 1.0 litre three cylinder engine, the Picanto is a nifty drive powering easily around town and will effortlessly pull away from the traffic lights when you need it to. Like other city cars, it’s a slightly different story out on the open road where the smaller engine struggles.
Value for money motoring
Cheap running costs make the Picanto an attractive car for many first time or new buyers. The smallest 1.0 litre engine car has a decent fuel economy of 67.3mpg and emits an efficient 99g/km CO2.
Lower insurance costs should also put a smile on your face, whichever model you choose. The smallest version is in insurance group two and this rises up to group six for the top spec models.
Safe and sound
Although the Picanto scored solid four stars in the Euro NCAP crash test. It’s re-assuring to know there’s a fair amount of safety kit as standard including ABS, airbags and traction control.
The amazing 7-year warranty that Kia offer is unrivalled by any other manufacturer and can’t help but give you confidence in the whole range of cars. It covers you for 100,000 miles or seven years (whichever comes first) but the first three years has unlimited mileage.
