No, even if more and more manufacturers are deserting this unprofitable category because of the investments required by electrification, not all affordable small cars have disappeared. Like its cousin Hyundai i10, the Kia Picanto holds the helm, and obviously has no desire to play discretion. This is evidenced by the new look that designers have offered him.
As we can see, the front end is quite radically transformed, thanks to the new design language that we have already been able to appreciate on the imminent EV9 electric SUV. Fairly smooth hood, vertical headlights with a very "technical" design, to which are added here a lower part a bit aggressive.
At the rear, there are brand new optical blocks, extended by an LED strip that almost crosses the tailgate from side to side. Frankly, this little Kia has looks. The modernization doesn't stop there, as the images also show a new digital instrument cluster. Will it be delivered as standard or only on a high-end finish? It will be necessary to wait for the official presentation at the end of June for confirmation, and also to know if Kia modifies the mechanical catalog, currently composed of two petrol engines 69 and 100 hp.
