Customers have to settle for the 1.0-liter T-GDi engine, rated at 118 PS (116 hp / 87 kW) and 171 Nm (126 lb-ft) of torque. It comes with a six-speed manual gearbox as standard and a dual-clutch seven-speed as an option, which adds a £1,000 ($1,258/€1,106) premium to the car’s price.
For the Picanto Wave, Kia is asking £11,895 ($14,968/€13,160). In return, customers get a Celestial Blue bodywork shade, Denim-style cloth and faux leather upholstery.
Other standard features in the city car are 15-inch alloy wheels, rear privacy glass, air conditioning, 7-inch infotainment, DAB radio, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and wireless charging pad for compatible smartphones. Some white accents, satin chrome interior door handles and storage box with sliding armrest in the central console round up the list of updates.
Kia is only offering the Picanto Wave with a 1.0-liter engine that’s making 66 PS (65 hp / 48 kW) and 96 Nm (71 lb-ft) of torque and is paired to a five-speed manual transmission.
