For decades, Kia Motors have produced highly affordable motoring, proving incredibly reliable and well screwed together but slightly lacking in quality – nonetheless, they sold in millions globally offering exactly what the motorist required – affordability, reliability and a good, honest mode of transport.
In the past twelve-months I can think of two cars that have produced media frenzy – both from Korea and both geared around performance and driving experience – this is the latest award winner, named ‘Stinger’ and from Kia Motors.
The Kia Picatno – a car that travels firmly under the radar of other road users as it doesn’t have a badge to keep up with the Jones’ – a car that many will not even have heard of, despite being around for years – a car that is a firm contender in the city-car market.
