MOTORING NEWS - Following the introduction of the KIA Picanto 1.0 LS in October 2015, KIA Motors South Africa has expanded its Picanto offering with a 1.2-litre LS model to fill the gap between the 1.0 LS and 1.0 LX models.
The new Picanto is positioned just above the entry-level Picanto 1.0 LS and intends to remain a fine example of an affordable car that doesn't compromise on quality.
Specs
Visually, the Picanto 1.2 LS is identical to the Picanto 1.0 LS, offering customers colour-coded bumpers at the front and rear, as well as colour-coded door handles and side mirrors and 14-inch steel wheels shod with 165/60 R14 tyres and full wheel covers.
