Kia Picanto Quantum special edition revealed

A special edition version of the Kia Picanto supermini, called the Quantum, has been revealed. It features distinctive styling and added kit as standard, with prices starting from £11,895 for the manual and £12,495 for the automatic models.

Available only in a three-door body and finished in titanium silver, the Picanto Quantum features 15-inch alloy wheels, automatic air con, keyless entry, engine start/stop, electric sunroof, front foglights and a six-speaker audio system as standard.

The special edition also benefits from an urban pack, adding rear parking sensors, LED interior ambient lighting and privacy glass.

Under the bonnet the 84bhp 1.25-litre petrol engine remains, and it's good for 62.8mpg with emissions of 102g/km if you go for the five-speed manual gearbox. Opt for the four-speed automatic and those figures drop to 50.4mpg and 130g/km.

The new special edition is also covered by Kia’s transferable seven-year warranty and available in showrooms now.
