2015 Kia Picanto 1.0 '1' 5dr in-depth tour

Here is an in-depth tour of my 2015 (facelift) Kia Picanto. It's the '1' spec, with the 1.0 3 cylinder engine (68bhp). I hope this video will help you if you are looking at getting one of these cars. I can say that this is an excellent little car. Very reliable, comfortable, easy to drive and to live with. You should definitely have it on your shortlist if you are looking to have a small hatchback full of surprises! :)

The Picanto is a very nice car for the money, it does everything you really need a city car to do. And with a 7 year warranty it is one of the best cars for a first car in my honest opinion.

Couldn't agree more 👍

i use this care every day, ive been driving about 20 years,lovely car cruises at 70 mph no issues all day long

[@themadant1941]

Same, I've not had any issues so far really. Just a couple of niggles but they've all been fixed, hassle-free under warranty. I'm very tempted to switch to the latest Picanto next when I switch cars I've been that impressed with it.

Hey, this is Antony. (I'm on a different channel nowadays). That's great to hear! I had this car for 4 years in the end. It never let me down, and was a joy to own. I quite miss it, and am certain you'll love yours 😁.

Thank you so much

nice review ive got the vr7 2015

[@themadant1941]

Thank you! Yeah, my only regret I guess is getting the base model, but it's okay

I have the exact same car, but 2016. do you have any issues with reverse on yours? I do not know much about cars but my car-dealer said it is normal, you just have to put 1-gear and then reverse, sounds weird to me :/

[@antonyhamilton6429]

(I'm on a different account right now). Yeah, I've had this happen to me occasionally. I've never asked about it, as I looked it up and it does seem to be very common. All I do is put it into neutral and release the clutch, and then it'll go in reverse no problem. It might be a safety feature perhaps, to stop you going into reverse accidentally. I'm not too sure

[@MrBrodernafluff]

@@antonyhamilton6429 Sounds good, Thanks for respons :)

@@MrBrodernafluff No problem mate, thanks for watching! 😁

[@jessgreenwood3883]

Would you recommend them as a car? Have you had any issues with it

[@themadant1941]

Hi, thank you for watching first of all! As I said I would definitely recommend this if you want a comfortable, reliable and dependable small car. I have still not had any mechanical problems so far. There have been one or two little niggles though, for instance the steering wheel height adjustment lever keeps jamming in place and there is a rattle or two. However, they are probably specific to my one and overall I have been very impressed with the reliability. Also all Kia's come with a 7 year, 100,000 mile warranty that is fully transferable. A very nice little car.

This has child lock?

[@antonyhamilton6429]

Hi, this is Antony (I'm on a different channel nowadays). Yes it does! I do not own this car anymore, so I'm not certain if it is operated by the key or just a switch, but either way it'll be operated within the 2 rear doors.

[@mrsidburnar1]

vr7 looks much better bro in 3 door i got nice alloys 2 brah

[@Mikobjj99]

how tall are you?

[@themadant1941]

Around 6ft. So that considered, the back seats are really not bad at all. I had a Renault Clio recently for around a week as a courtesy car, and that was more cramped in the back seats. And that car sits in the class above, so I think they did a great job in maximising the space in the cabin.

[@antonyhamilton6429]

Hey. I'm the uploader, I'm just using a different account. This was resolved a couple of months after this was uploaded; it was the timing chain mechanism that was causing the noise and it was fixed under warranty 👍
