2015 Kia Picanto facelift brings upgraded styling, new interior options and a more efficient engineThe facelifted Kia Picanto city car will make its global debut at the Geneva motor show in March, with sales starting soon after.
Key among the changes made to the Picanto are redesigned front and rear bumpers, optional 14-inch alloy wheels and an upgraded version of Kia's 'Tiger Nose' grille design. An optional sport pack is also available.
Inside, Kia has upgraded the Picanto's infotainment system, which will be available with a larger 7.0 touchscreen from Q3 this year, as well as fitting new chrome accents, new upholstery options and a redesigned fascia.
New options available on the Picanto include cruise control and a speed limiter. Three new interior colour packs are designed to help owners personalise their car, and offer interior options like leather seats and footwell illumination.
Mechanical updates include larger optional front brakes - which measure 252mm compared to the standard car's 241mm - as well as small modifications to the Picanto's 1/0-litre petrol engine to meet Euro 6 emissions legislation.
The refreshed Picanto will go on sale in March, and is built at Kia's Seosan plant in Korea. Pricing for the facelifted model has yet to be announced, but the current Picanto range starts at £7895.
