Is it still a Budget Car ? Updated 2024 Kia Picanto EX Review : Expensive

[@tshabzin2709]

Spending over R200k for Picanto is mad business I recently bought a 2018 Kia Picanto 1.0 Street with R140k and it was around 60K km on the clock

[@The_Flower_Enhle]

Perfect

[@sithembisomthembi2656]

I'd go for the suzuki swift or Baleno. Hell baleno comes with a huge standard feature list, its bigger, better engine, and similar efficiency and a good service plan.

[@Nkosie007]

The Chinese need to come to this small hatchback segment

[@samuelmaleka4832]

Exactly bra

[@janvusi1407]

Last year i was driving 2021 picanto street and It was perfect and comfortable there only issue was the boot space and ground clearance.

[@paulvinemoholola2920]

Kia is very comfortable than any other cars I drove and i think it has hydrolic and air pressure shocks because every morning I'm starting it, the comfortable is not same as after I packed. There is technology used on comfortability which I feel like it's new car every morning I drive it. Shocks pumps hydronic overnight if i may say .The car really worth the price and on petrol I can't even mention. You won't regret. If the say it's 1.0 they really mean it.

Great review. It was great to see everything as you mentioned it 👍🏾✌🏾 Keep it up.

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@WenaNkosi Thank you 🙏🏾

[@phakamanibrianmtshara150]

Kia and Volkswagen, are doing the most with ridiculous pricing.

[@phakamanibrianmtshara150]

Honda, Hyundai and Toyota as well, basically all the manufacturers except the Chinese.

[@The_Flower_Enhle]

yeah

[@thapelosethaiso6196]

Definitely Suzuki Fronx G.L for 300k

[@dyl_nnn]

No thanks, im going to buy the pre facelift x line with sunroof 🤣

[@H.I.I.T68]

Just a correction but the EX and EX Plus carry the 1.2 at around 62kw and 122nm of torque. Only the LX has the 1.0 engine

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@H.I.I.T68 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@murendenimurendeni4338]

With 300k, I would definitely buy a baleno

[@thabisomogane5170]

Great choice 🍻

[@AmoClassic]

Or a fronx

[@ThembaOnWheels]

I would get a preowened Mazda3

[@masediseshoka475]

This is without doubt the greatest vehicle mankind has ever created ❤

[@lesediseemela9856]

Kia is trying to fill the void left by the discontinued Rio but they're missing it because this car hasn't grown to a point where it should be costing that much.

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@lesediseemela9856 Mmhh never thought of it like that. You have a point 🔥

[@budgetcarfumie]

Yooh what has inflation done in this country😮 R300K for a Picanto hay they are taking it too far now😂

[@mandlalloyd6174]

So this mini bunny is competing with the likes of Fronx , magnite and others in terms of pricing

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@mandlalloyd6174 Yep

[@phakamanibrianmtshara150]

4/4 mas'hlalisane it shall be, because R300k is crazy.

[@phakamanibrianmtshara150]

When I was browsing through changecars I stumbled across a 2019 model for just over R145k

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@phakamanibrianmtshara150 best comment 😂😂😂

[@LithaSibuqashe-ml8sq]

I'd go for starlet cross

[@omogolonkwane]

I'd search for a F30 BMW 320d m-sport with R300,000

[@thabisomogane5170]

320d abuti ❤❤❤❤

[@Bless_Mabunda]

That money is a lot for such a smaller car, I think the Balemo is better value…Please review the facelift i20 n line and that 8 speaker Bose sound system 🫡

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@Bless_Mabunda Will reach out to Hyundai and hear what they say 🙏🏾

[@GlenroseMakgorogo]

Waek, chiefs ke mtlweerrr!!!

[@chustamavie4557]

NEVER!!

[@jasonyu-gi-oh1056]

Nope. No longer a budget car. I would rather look for a pre-owned Picanto X-Line

[@omogolonkwane]

Kia is losing it, their cars never been this expensive

[@Brandon134N]

Nop it's not a budget car and chiefs always loses and it will not come back from a mamelodi sundowns fan it's way over priced it may look appealing but the price it's picantos downfall

[@GlenroseMakgorogo]

Chiefs is paying the dues. 4 nil against yanga

[@MixoMakamu]

Me I love your honesty bro, Picanto is overpriced. It doesn’t make sense.

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@MixoMakamu 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@Nkosie007]

Haibo that's FONX GL money

[@ThembaOnWheels]

the Pricing is odd

[@katerpiller_00]

Coming back from what☠️ 😅 went to see the car in person recently, definitely overpriced 😂

[@CollenMahlobo-fq1cf]

No longer budget car

[@Rhapsody_]

This car is a waste of money, if you're opting to buy it first-hand. For what you get, the price is not worth it.

[@The_Flower_Enhle]

Nope ,not a budget car .my 2020 is a budget car not this one😢

[@SwitchOffSouthAfrica]

@@The_Flower_Enhle Yeah it’s expensive now and doesn’t qualify to be called a budget car anymore

[@sibonisohenryngubane1650]

they losing it
