Kia releases upgraded Picanto GT-Line
Renamed Australian Open edition becomes a permanent fixture in the micro car rangeThe Kia Picanto Australian Open edition has been so successful, the importer has moved to shore up sales with an on-going variant in the range, taking over where the limited-edition model left off.
Named the Kia Picanto GT-Line, the new variant rides on 16-inch alloy wheels and features uprated front seats with red accents, alloy sports pedals, a six-speaker audio system and cosmetic items such as a body kit, contrasting accents, LED parking lights/daytime running lights and dual exhaust system.
Kia is offering the car with a colour palette of Clear White and the optional ($520) choices of Aurora Black, Titanium Silver or Signal Red.
Limited to automatic transmission only, the Kia Picanto GT-Line is priced from $17,490 drive-away, which includes seven-year warranty coverage, road-side assist for the duration of the warranty and seven-year capped-price servicing.
"The Picanto GT-Line is just one more endorsement of our belief that there is a desire from the market for a practical, stylish and affordable car at that end of the market," Kia Chief Operating Officer Damien Meredith said.
"From the outset we were confident that there was opportunity in that micro segment, but it had to be the right car promoted in the right way. Picanto has proven that belief and the GT-Line is just one more way for us to support our original confidence."
