Product Overview

Kia Picanto Mk2 (chassis code TA) 3-door is an entry-level subcompact hatchback in production from 2011 to 2017. It was available with a range of inline-3 and inline-4 engines that displaced 1.0 to 1.2 liters.
Compared to the 5-door model, the 3-door has slightly better proportions and is easier on the driver in terms of ingress and egress. Like the 5-door Mk2 Picanto, the 3-door version uses semi-independent rear suspensions, tiny engines, and outdated transmissions, though Kia appears to be more reliable than its European competition.
Another plus is the small 9.6m (31.5ft) turning circle.
