Kia has released Kia Picanto 3-door, model appeared in 2004. The distinctively styled Kia Picanto 3-door, with a new selection of trim levels, goes on sale in the UK from 1st September 2011.
The Kia Picanto 3-door includes a unique, sporty character while still managing to deliver exactly the same, seemingly contradictory, upgrades as the more family-focused five-door: stronger performance with lower fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, the safety and luxury features of a sizable car with no outrageous cost, and practicality inside a compact package. When the five-door Picanto is ‘the small car, grown up’, then your 3-door is identical however with a twinkle in its eye.
Globally, the market for Picanto-sized cars in 2014 will be around 2.4 million. By 2015 – well within the second-generation Picanto’s life cycle – which will have become to 3.3 million. Around millions of of those will be 3-door cars. Without a 3-door model, Kia would have absolutely nothing to offer 30% of buyers within the most dynamic sectors of the market.
In the UK, the significance of the 3-door car is even more pronounced: the sales split between body styles within the A-segment is really a slender 55:45 towards five-door models.
