KIA Picanto user review

[syed.ammar0013]

Need a overall user review of Picanto, got some questions regarding this car, anyone who has driven the car properly for more than 2-3 years plz reach out.

What are the known faults in this car?
How much does maintenance cost on this car?
How is the fuel average?
How is the AC performance, when the car is idling & being driven?
How good is the resale value of the car, compared to it's competitors?
What is the average price range for the spare parts, highest & lowest?
How good is the availability of spare parts, most importantly engine parts?
How is the ride comfort if driven on long routes and within city, specifically in Karachi, knowing the poor road conditions?

[Thinking]

Its arguably the best in class hatch with a proper auto box.

Maintenance is same as any other similar 1000 CC car from the dealership.

Milage is around 12 -14 KMPL in the city and 16-18 KMPL on long route.

All parts are easily available at the dealership.

Car is reasonably equipped, very comfortable and AC cooling is quite good.

i have driven this extensively .u can check my reviews on pakwheel about this car.and my friend still has also this car....

avg is like 8 to 10 max 10 if v.light foot and no traffic
with mix traffic avg is 8

AC v.good .. parts are expensive.

(Milage is around 12 -14 KMPL in the city and 16-18 KMPL on long route.) 12 14 is absoulty wrong..

comfortable car with gas guzzler engine and
back seats are cramped
AC is v.good
noise ratio v.good (sound insulation) and.. u will feel driving a sedan car

how is the ac when the car is idling? bcz i have an alto vxr and the ac trips when the car engine is idling. i wanna know about kia picanto

[StoneCold316]

i have alto too. both i bought brand new

Picanto AC doest trips while car not moving or idiling

my commute is shahrae faisal often sometime my car did not move for an hour even the ac works fine doest trip
at all

in alto it happens car not moving (alto) ac performance goes down

but in picanto it was not that case (aC is chill while not moving)

the only reason i sold that car bcz.. fule av my daily commute is 45km mean min 5 litre daily consumption per month you can imagine the cost.
