The engine is mated to either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission, depending on the variant.

As mentioned, Kia PH is slashing off the prices of all Kia Picanto variants, which allows you to drive home the Korean subcompact hatchback at a starting price of Php 499,000. This means that you can get the Kia Picanto 1.0 LX MT with a discounted price of Php 91,000 this March. Kia PH is also offering a Php 8,499 monthly amortization for the Picanto. Pricing for other Picanto variants are as follows:

All-new Kia Sorento
On the other hand, could the cash discount promos for the Picanto, Sorento, and Grand Carnival hint at possible future new car launches for Kia PH this year? Based on the previous report, Kia PH President Manny Aligada said that the brand will be launching two new vehicles “very, very soon.” Could those two new vehicles either be among the Picanto, Sorento, and Grand Carnival? We’ll have to wait and see.
