First look: new Kia Picanto unveiled at Geneva Motor Show IT'S easy to get lost in the glitz of unaffordable exotica at international motor shows, but arguably the most important models on display are the production-ready cars people will actually be buying in coming months. And they don't come much more affordable than Kia's Picanto city car. The third-generation Picanto was unveiled to the public for the first time at the Geneva Motor Show today, high on youthful style, clever packaging and appealing specification.Under the bright lights of the giant Geneva show hall, the new car looks a winner. Cute, stylish and with a greatly improved cabin, the new Picanto is set to arrive in Australian showrooms from May 1. As Australia's best-selling micro car it's a hugely significant model in a segment that's bounced back into favour in 2017 (up 26% year-to-date). The new Picanto has a sportier body design, modernised and more spacious cabin with a 'floating' 7-inch touchscreen, reversing camera and desirable Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration as standard. No Australian pricing has been decided upon as yet, but Kia Motors Australia CEO Damien Meredith said he was hoping the new Picanto's entry cost would remain close to the current $14,990 drive away, despite all the new technology.Introduced to Australia for the first time last April (despite already being a five-year-old model), the Picanto has found huge favour amongst Australia buyers - typically the very young and retirees - drawn to that compelling price point, its quirky good looks, five-star safety rating and Kia's ever-appealing seven-year warranty. It has been consistently outselling its diminutive rivals - the Mitsubishi Mirage, Holden Spark and Fiat 500 included - and more sales success should come with the arrival of this funky third-generation Picanto.
