Picanto feels so much better as a car

Car price always remain constant in Pakistan over time. In 1998, price of suzuki khyber 93 model was 2.5 lacs and today you can buy the same model year khyber 93 in 2.5 lacs. Kia and lucky motors have a good research on it and in 2030, 20 lacs picanto 2020 model will look like a peanuts.

Yes I was doing the same and thought it will work like WhatsApp but it doesn't, nothing happens. In reply box it is written to drag the picture or url , that sort of something

Click on the reply button.
In the Menu of Reply, 7th option is for attachment. Click on it.
After clicking, 02 options will be there; You can attach from either your devise, or from the web.
In case of file from web, instead of dragging / dropping, I would suggest to post in the relevant link and follow relevant details in next step.
In case of file from device, click on Choose Files. A window will open. Browse and select file, and click on Open. The file will get selected. Click on the attach button. The fie will start getting uploaded, and when it will fully upload, you will preview it in the preview pane on the right.

This is the procedure for attaching files.

I hope, it helps. Thank you.

@owners what do you guys think about AC performance of your ride in these got summer days. IMO Wagon R ac was better

Excellent Ac of Picanto.

So today I planned to spend time with Picanto and check it for a brief period of time. A journey was planned from Peshawar to Islamabad to kill boredom and test Picanto's AC performance and mileage. At 12:30 pm today journey started and I filled tank(Auto stop) on first petrol pump on the way (Total Petrol). Trip meter was reset to zero and I calculated last mileage ( which was all within city with AC). The car instrument cluster was showing 8.3 Liters per 100 kilometers which turns out to be 12.04 km/lit. I manually calculated, the trip meter distance divided by number of liters to full tank and it was 10.80 km/liter and I was disappointed. I started the journey went to Islamabad by motorway and I was the only occupant in the car. Average speed was 100 km/hr with full time ac. On entry to Islamabad I tried to goto pir sohawa, to check hill driving of the car but police barricaded the road and no one was allowed, went to F10 then back to Peshawar by motorway. On entry to Peshawar I filled the tank in total petrol pump. The car instrument meter was showing 6.0 liters per 100 kilometers which turns out to be 16.66 km/lit and I expected an average of 15 on manual calculation but I was surprised. The distance travelled was 371.1 km and fuel tank guage was a bit low then half mark and tank got filled with 19.79 liters so the manual calculation turns out to be 18.75 km/liters. Now I don't know which reading is correct but I am happy with both the figures, as AC cooling was superb on hot after noon it was almost 6 n half hours of non stop driving and journey was pleasant /comfortable and totally enjoyed music on the way.

emzee92 2020-05-26 20:22:57 +0500 #114

So what do you have to say about Picanto's AC in comparison to Wagon R?

waqar_waa (Waqar Azeem) 2020-05-26 21:54:14 +0500 #115

If Picanto is parked in sunlight, in my opinion it takes more time to cool the cabin, may be interior and upholstery is black that's why. Wagon R AC was powerful in that dept. But if Picanto is cruising it's AC cools very fine and I had no complaints today despite the fact as I started travelling at 12:30 pm and sun was scorching today

manual or auto?

arsalan399shah (Arsalan Shah ) 2020-09-07 20:06:07 +0500 #117

brother it is discontinued in some countries while in many it is still on sale. no car maker discontinues their high selling product after launch of a newer model. if you get to see some owner reviews of the newer model, you get to see that it is good but still the 2nd generation sold better and faster

er.usmani (ER) 2021-07-06 10:47:11 +0500 #118

so Haaziq, how is your car holding up? Do you still own it? Did you get any more service from Kia township? How is the fuel avg? If you ever needed any spare part/accessory, how the availability?

I am myself planning on getting Kia Picanto but I very seldom see it on road which doesn't cater confidence for this car. All I see if cultus, wagon r, civic and city. Please post your review after spending 18 months with this car.

Thanks.
