The 2026 Kia Picanto Sport is a small five-seat petrol hatchback with front-wheel drive and a manual gearbox. It's priced from $19,190 RRP, which is the recommended retail price before on-road costs like rego and stamp duty. Fuel use is a claimed 5.4L/100km combined, and the boot holds 255 litres with the seats up or 1,010 litres with the rear seats folded. It's not quick, with a claimed 0-100km/h time of 12.2 seconds from its 62kW, and we don't have a braked towing figure on record yet. It suits city drivers and first-car buyers who want something small and easy to park that's light on fuel.
