A Review Of The New Kia Picanto Strike

The Kia Picanto Strike 1.15 is a limited edition model from Kia Motors

. The car has excellent space in the rear, which makes seating there quite comfortable. Also, the doors of the car are large and this makes it easy to get in and out of the car.

The company has introduced many changes in this limited edition model to make it look more attractive. The doors and the dashboard of the car have been redesigned to improve its look. The rear seat of the car can be folded to increase luggage space. The total luggage capacity of the car when the seats are up is 157 litres. However, when the rear seats are folded the capacity increases drastically to 882 litres.

The Kia Picanto Strike has a reasonable 1086cc engine for comfortable driving. The interior of the car includes features like tinted glass windows, a digital clock, 2 CD changer with MP3 player, 4 speaker system, leather steering, vanity mirrors for both the front seat passengers, heated rear windows and tachometer. Power steering in the car makes driving the Strike easy and comfortable. The standard model of the Strike is equipped with features like front electric windows, remote control central locking, air filters and powerful air-conditioning system.

The exterior of the car includes features like body-coloured door handles and body-coloured mirrors, black waistline mouldings and bumpers. Kia has built the car keeping all aspects of customer safety in mind. The car has Anti Braking System or ABS with Electronic Brake Force Distribution, which increases the safety of passengers. Also, the two airbags for the front passengers ensures the safety of both the passengers sitting in the front. If children are seated in the front seat you can deactivate the passenger airbag.

The Kia Picanto Strike is also equipped with child-proof rear door locks, which ensure the safety of your children. The car comes with remote central door locking, with alarms for added protection of your car.

The headroom space in both the rear and front seats is comfortable. However, smaller drivers will find it difficult to drive the Picanto Strike as the driver's seat height cannot be adjusted. The rear legroom space is better than many cars in its class. The interior of the car is geared towards functionality and durability and is unattractive. At times, the material used may look a little flimsy but in the long run you will find nothing wrong with it.

On road, the performance of the car is excellent. The engine noise is usually suppressed but could turn noisy when it is pushed. Also the five speed gearbox becomes hard when driving the car at high speed. The car has decent acceleration and can reach a speed of 62mph in about 15 seconds. The fuel consumption of the car is lower than the standard Picanto model, and is at 58.8 miles per gallon. The car comes with a 3-year or 999,999 mile warranty (whichever comes first). The car also comes with a 6 year man perforation guarantee, and a 3 year manufacturer's paintwork guarantee.
