In Moscow Yakhroma hosted the first Russian presentation of the compact five-door Picanto hatchback. The car has become much more attractive, improved manageability, and performance efficiency.
Even in the Parking lot before the presentation tent, the question arose: "what here makes Kia Venga?" It turned out that the appearance of a compact five-door Picanto hatchback is easily confused with the older model. However, to distinguish the car simply: according to light scattering in the rear lights and the "cilia" in the front headlamps. Well, of course, near the illusion is destroyed, it is enough to see the narrow stern Picanto. Kia Picanto In geometric figures (3595/1595/1480 cm) "spicy" novelty increased slightly compared with the previous model: length increased by 6 cm, wheelbase is longer by 1.5 see the Height and width has not changed. Despite budget plastic that looks "torpedo" was more cute than on the old machine. I had the feeling that you're in "adult" car, the noise from passing trucks not rushes into the room, well-balanced chassis allows you confidently in control of the car. Kia Picanto According to representatives of the company, to stop the sounds from the street was applied three-layer insulation. Vibration fought with more modern hydraulic supports the engine and transmission. With the engine of 1.2 liters (85 HP 120 Nm) and automatic transmission hatchback accelerates too smoothly for 13.4 seconds to "hundreds". If switching speed manually, you can get Picanto acceptable acceleration. In the car there is a connector for iPod and AUX and USB. In Russia Picanto will be offered with liter 65-horsepower engine, which works in conjunction with the "mechanics". Passport gasoline consumption with this unit in the urban cycle is just 5.4 liters per 100 km Range of options is quite extensive. In the near future, the Internet portal "Sarule.
