The current generation Picanto is now available in pink. Adding a splash of girly colour to the Picanto line up ”Fuchsia Blush” is now available to order on the 5-door model on grades ”2” and ”3” priced at the standard metallic paint price of £445.
If pink isn’t your colour then there is also an all-new version of Kia’s city car – the Picanto White. Uniquely available with Clear White paintwork, and in three-door guise, this model sits at the top of the Picanto line-up.
On the outside, Picanto White has a set of anthracite five-spoke 15-inch alloy wheels, colour-coded side sill mouldings, a black ‘tiger nose’ grille with red surround, LED daytime running lights, as well as distinctive LED rear combination lamps and a dual chrome-tipped exhaust.
The white theme continues on the inside with bright gloss white trim on the steering wheel, dashboard fascia and gear lever. A black cloth upholstery, with part-leather inserts, leather steering wheel and gear lever and alloy pedals complete the look.
Picanto White comes with a host of high-end specification items including automatic air conditioning, Bluetooth with voice recognition, iPod connectivity, a six-speaker stereo system and reversing sensors. Electrically folding and heated door mirrors with integrated LED indicators, ‘welcome’ and ‘follow-me-home’ lighting, steering wheel mounted controls, a trip computer and a smart key entry system with Start/Stop button are also all part of the equipment list.
Picanto White is powered by a 1.25-litre petrol engine with either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. Developing 84bhp at 6,000rpm and 89 lb/ft torque at 4,000 rpm the ‘White’ has a top-speed, in manual guise, of 106mph and completes the 0-60mph dash in 11 seconds.
The Picanto White is available to order now priced at £11,745 for the 1.25-litre manual version and £12,435 for the 1.25-litre automatic version.
