We Did 8000km in a Kia Picanto GT. Should You Buy One? (Long-Term Review and Recommendations)

Our long-term review of the Kia Picanto GT hot hatch is complete. Should you buy Australia’s cheapest small performance car? Can you even call the Picanto GT a hot hatch? Let’s find out!

We entrusted the keys to a grey Kia Picanto GT to journalist Zak Adkins, who owns a manual hot hatch himself. Priced at $22,490 driveaway, the Picanto GT is really affordable but still a very fun drive, as we found out.

Our Kia Picanto GT spec:
- 2022 build, MY22 equipment
- Astro grey metallic paint ($520)
- Black vinyl upholstery

The Kia Picanto GT competes with very small cars, like the Mazda 2, MG3, Toyota Yaris, Volkswagen Polo and others.

As always, we don’t accept advertising from car manufacturers, and we’re powered by Budget Direct - so this is an independent, honest review of the Kia Picanto.
