Test Drive Kia Picanto since 2011 Hatchback

Citizen

Picanto in the city that fish in water. Dense suspension, minimal rolls and an overwhelmed steering wheel even provoke stack. However, with increasing speed, the steering wheel loses clarity, the weakness of the motor is manifested, noise increases.
 
Salon is small. It is noticeable and on the trunk of the volume of only 152 liters, and on the rearmost places. But the driver is not insulted: the landing is comfortable and everything is at hand. But in a long road, still the lack of a lumbar backpage affects.
 
Manual box pleases excellent switching clarity. Given the informativeness of the clutch pedal and intimibility of idle turns, Picanto would become an excellent choice for beginners and move easily, and the transfers are difficult to confuse.
 
The weakest place is picanto noise insulation. Sand rustling, stones knock and murmur water on wheeled niches His regular satellites.
 
Modest dimensions did not affect the convenience of landing and ergonomics. And how many boxes and shelves here!
 
Two motors of 1.0 l (62 hp) and 1.1 liters are available for Kia Picanto (62 hp) and 1.1 liters (65 hp), as well as two types of gearboxes: manual and hydromechanical automatic
