Man , I can not get over the fact that they don't have a single showroom in Twin cities. What kind of Management is this?

I'm not very optimistic about the picanto if it's priced like the Cultus tbh, a slightly better car won't make it for the avg buyer in our market who'll prefer an established manufacturer. Low-key hoping for a bit better pricing somehow adjusted in minor gaps between wagonr & Cultus

no feature added, no cruise control, no push start, a copy of cultus in features...
i think its pretty bad, now they have to price it below cultus for marketing point of view, otherwise it will not be sold so easily

Kia Picanto will reach dealerships by tomorrow & day after tomorrow they are expected to start the bookings with tentative delivery time of October 2019. Lets hope for the best.
Best of luck for all who are planning to book/buy Kia Picanto.

back viper, all seat head rests, automatic transmission over AGS are gud additions

No parking sensors, no side mirror turn signals...

6609 (6609) 2019-09-12 16:09:59 +0500 #231

No 3rd Stop lamp and no side turn signals, not even in the fenders, I hope the rim size is 14"

Seems nice in pics....
Exterior is surely a fresh feel after Waggy and Crappy-tus....

Interior is basic.... but quality sure looks top notch
Cultus interior is awfully pathetic quality...

Now i think it will all come down to pricing.

I think they have kept both variants at par with each other with just difference of tranny.

haaziq (Haaziq Mehboob) 2019-09-12 16:59:01 +0500 #233

No Alloys even in the Auto Variant.
Pricing should be reasonable if they want it to be a success.
Fuel average will be a strong player as well.

Ooopss... no alloys....
Thats bad... should have given in auto

zuhaibafzal 2019-09-12 18:04:15 +0500 #236

The good thing, atleast it has seat height adjuster

drtariqazeem (drtariqazeem) 2019-09-12 18:09:58 +0500 #237

Boss with these specs max it should be 1.8 mil

chinyoti (Murtaza Shahid) 2019-09-12 18:36:35 +0500 #238

Looks like limited to manual and auto.

The car shouldn't be priced more then Cultus if they wanto attract buyers.

It doesnt has anything special over a Cultus VXL and AGS.

I personally think it's a great buy if priced between WagonR VXR and Cultus VXL.

Definetly a future buyer if priced reasonably. Else il jump to a Xli AT.

I'm drooling over the blue color. It looks fantastic.

6609 (6609) 2019-09-12 19:15:26 +0500 #239

Agree on the pricing part, it should be between Wagon R and Cultus with these features.

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2019-09-12 19:19:11 +0500 #240

I think its 1.85 for Auto and 1.7 for manual and introductory price. After few weeks the Auto jumps to 2 million and manual touch 1.8..

Although I have heard , manual will be like 1.8 on launch

All kia cars are gas guzzler. When it comes to efficient engine no one can beat japs.

hash737 2019-09-12 19:25:17 +0500 #242

I really really wish good luck to KIA. Its going to be very VERY tough for them. Specially after getting to know about new picanto.
