Used Kia Picanto Hatchback 2011-2017 review

It’s hard to ignore the Hyundai i10 as a rival, which, having been around for a couple more years than the Picanto is also available for less and virtually identical in most other respects.

Alternatively, the Seat Mii and Skoda Citigo are marginally more expensive to buy, but offer a larger boot and a much more mature driving experience.

For something cheaper than the Picanto it’s worth considering the Citroën C1, Peugeot 107 or Toyota Aygo, but bear in mind that these have even less luggage space than the Kia.
