    Congratulations this video is great. Its the best review I've seen on the Picanto. I've been looking all over youtube. Its very pleasant to see a full demonstration day and night conditions. I was really impressed and you were very thorough with the demonstration. First class video. Thank you from the uk. 👍

    I prefer the looks of the old one. I own a 2017 gt line turbo and i love it. Drivning wise it reminds me of 80s hot hatch. Keep up the good work!

      I ordered my GT in December 2019 and then they announced the facelift.... I am willing to swap up but they really aren't offering anything new compared to the model they replace.
      I was so hopeful for LKA, Australia has some of the longest roads in the world and I sometimes drive 4hrs a day to commute. If they don't put it in the 2020 picanto I will probably buy a Rio with it (when they eventually bring radar cruise too, I think next series)

    Is it fast, no, is it efficient no.
    I have a mk3 3 spec auto. Its fast enough and can do 35mpg.
    (Reviewers can only manage 28mpg!).
    Its much better than the competition with the advantage of a proper torque converter box.
    However, the new mk3.1 has no auto option and is waiting for the new DCT next year.
    The DCT is a bad idea as Ford and VW buyers found. Also the automated manuals of Toyota, Citroen and Peuget have been dropped as clutch wear was horrific, only 20-30k miles.

    lovely small car and.......how long will it take again to get this well equipped city zipper as it is here presented Down Under? No, please none of the NO FRILLS versions like it is done with other models that did arrive in Australia. One can feel being punished and dumped driving on the wrong side of the road. It handicaps Australians on car models of other brands seen elsewhere coming into our country. On that note, just have a look what is there on the market in the UK and funny that - why can't we have those in Australia? Sadly we are swamped with lots of those Chinese budget car brands we could do without as they do not have Outback durability and so very poor and thinly spread on having backup services. Kia and Hyundai are very well established Down Under so we deserve a bit more on finesse. Just look how the Yanks getting spoiled and compare this what we in Australia get. Please pass this on and Kia and Hyundai as they may rethink their dealings with Australia and give us also the better equipped models. Yes, we do drive a South Korean car so we know what we are writing about here, we have a Kia Rio and a 2020 Hyundai Kona Active, now only two weeks young.
    Keep up the good work - we love seeing your presentations and keep us posted, cheers!

      @@AsianPetrolhead Let you know, we been in S. Korea / Seoul about 5 months before the coronavirus border closures staying at the Hill House Hotel that made us feel like it was our second home, situated just 450 meters from the base cable car station of the Namsan Park leading up to the N-tower. We had our eye on Kias and Hyundai cars in Oz and noticed once exploring Seoul we in Oz have far poorer equipped models compared to what we saw while driving around in Seoul. It felt a bit like two children standing in a candy store seeing all those sophisticated outfitted models and hybrid versions we still were unable to buy in Oz at that time and they only appear now in showrooms Down Under. My wife's dream would have been the Veloster, but it is a bit too small to be used as the "do the shopping car" and so is the Picanto so she drives the Rio. The other day I placed a 55 liter car fridge / freezer in the boot of our new 2020 Kona Active, I had to lower the floor panel and remove the top cover to get it in and there is not much room left for additional shopping bags in the boot - they have to go on the back seats. We had the dilemma where to plug the fridge in with only one 12 Volt socket at the very front. I had to buy an extension to reach to that socket, we live in the country and drive 50 km to do our closest shop and in summer we hit around 40 centigrade so we need that car fridge. Those side pockets in the doors are so tiny and our umbrellas just have to rest somewhere on the floor. We really love how this 2 liter / 6 speed auto Kona performance and the fuel economy is absolutely excellent. This lane assistance steers this car along by itself - a dream to drive! The downside is that it does not hold the speed on the set cruise and shows 7 km more as we actually really drive. If we drive in accordance to the speed showing, we would be a roadblock to other road users. We can get booked in Oz for driving to slow without having a good reason - our roads are narrow and overtaking another car there has its risks, on the other side going 5km over the speed limit brings also a speeding ticket - we have hidden radar cameras everywhere. Stay awesome -cheers!
