The 2024 Kia Picanto micro hatchback is locked in a battle for the ages with the one-size-larger MG3. Their prize? The title of Australia's cheapest car. And in good news for the South Korean model, it's about to win, as the next-generation Chinese contender is set to move upmarket with a new hybrid powertrain option and a range-wide higher level of technology.
Good news, then, for the Picanto, which can confidently move forward as the go-to option for new-car buyers that want to spend the least amount of money possible. And if they do, they'll be pleased, as the Kia has just undergone a major late-life facelift, which delivers more contemporary styling and a longer list of standard equipment.
In this expert review, CarsGuide Senior Journalist Tom White spends a wheel with the five-speed manual version of the Picanto's new GT-Line flagship - yes, the turbocharged GT is sadly no more post-facelift.
