2012 Picanto vs. 2011 Spark

[leopaul]

So, it all goes to this. Both of them are compacts and both of them are made in Korea. Both of them are fuel efficient. About the 2012 Picanto and the 2011 Spark, ano sa tingin nyo? What do you prefer?

For me, the Spark is more stylish than the new Morning/Picanto while the new Morning/Picanto is more fuel efficient than the Chevrolet Spark.

I`d go with the Kia Picanto as I am more confident with Kia when it comes to after-sales service unlike in Chevrolet, I'm quite doubtful regarding their A.S. assistance.

Picanto for me. The Beat/Spark is just butt-ugly!

Picanto for me. The Beat/Spark is just butt-ugly!

Actually, the picanto's rear look like its bigger brother/cousin or whatever KIA CARENS only with LED tails.

^ The Spark looks menacing upfront, but when you follow it from the rear ang pangit ng hitsura...

[renzo_d10]

ya. tingin mo medyo malaki ang picanto sa spark ? coz when i tried the spark, medyo cramped na ang 3 average-sized adults sa likod.

[anonemus]

^ Haven't seen the new Picanto in the flesh yet, renzo.

Yung comment ko is more on the aesthetics between the two cars. 90% of the time other drivers will be looking at a car's behind rather than it's front, so for me having a good butt design is important also...

Bakit ba puro likod ang pics dito?



Don't mind the projector HL's.. H4 type yung local natin.

I'd pick the Picanto anytime, kahit sa Celerio pa i-compare.

[Balisong]

I'd go with Picanto. Not just since I'm more comfy with kia but also due to looks. The only edge that spark has is that it sounds cooler than piccanto...

[Ginnova]

picanto as well. looks better than the spark

[shadow3616931]

i choose picanto, ok naman performance picanto ni wifey its fast and economical

[myk384]

Picanto, rear visibility with the Spark surely is a liability.

[renzo_d10]

Ask niyo kaya sa Spark thread kung yun vs. Picanto ... Para naman mag-iba ihip ng hangin. Hahahaha. Kidding.

Ok lang kahit hindi projectors, cost-cutting den. Basta ba maganda yung reflector bowl nila eh oks na sakin. Yung tipong Vios ba, para maliwanag.

[desert fox]

Picanto din ako..kaya lang pangit yung SW, parang laging me nakangisi sa iyo payaso.....(yung tiger look nya inadopt din sa SW....).

[dyupol]

kamusta kaya ang actual fuel consumption ng Picanto vs Spark. Meron na ba bumili sa inyo and natest ito? thanks!

[niky]

Tested the Spark. About 15-17 km/l mixed (light traffic, though)... probably 11-12 km/l in purely urban traffic, though I didn't have time to test thoroughly.

[spyler]

any latest update? im also planning to get the spark. Ano ba mas malaki ang space ng likod? spark or picanto?

[carchase]

Anyone tested the new picanto? or for the actual owners.. fc

[zap.FREEDOM]

PICANTO here! bias opinion to admit, the old model is so good, so eto pa kayang bago?

OT: my relative has a 2008 Kia Picanto A/T, and it is still so damn good. FC is not so enough like other city cars around and convincing. (parang sa vios din with a little difference, siguro dahil A/T). Speed is enough. not quite sure 'bout this new model.

[kotiko]

The recent Top Gear Philippines magazine picked Spark over the Picanto.
