If you have around $20,000 to spend on a compact city car, it's hard to look past the Kia Picanto. It's surprisingly grown-up to drive and loaded with features, which is why it's comfortably the best-selling micro car in Australia.
But size matters - so we've heard - and for not all that much more money than Kia demands, you could find yourself behind the wheel of something more substantial.
Something like the Suzuki Swift GL Navigator with Safety Pack, perhaps. It's less showy than the Kia, but the Swift is practical, handsome and fun to drive.
Which of these first-car favourites gets things right, then?

I own the Swift GL right now, all I can say is it's wonderful to drive...
is it still good ? does if feel like its comfortable to go 120km/h
Great review Caradvise. These tester reporters are eloquent and very thoughrough. Really enjoyed this though I'd pick the Kia for looks, ownership costs and warranty.
Excellent quality content! Kept me glued to my screen wanting to know more. I love the interaction and reasoning dialogue between you two. It's like you're reading the consumer's mind when they're comparing their options. Will def be checking more vids on your channel
Brilliant review, down to earth, pros and cons the daily driver will benefit from knowing. Well done!
Great review, you guys work well together
I like the Picanto. However, as a current Swift owner (2010 XG 1.2 CVT - with telescopic steering wheel - just brilliant!) I'd still go for the Swift if I wanted to pay for a new car.
Picanto GT line is so much better and the 2020 model is packed with lot's of safety features.
Thank you for such a great comparison, I am in South Africa and this is still so helpful.
Kia Picanto
The best car in the world
The fact that it's 'tiny' is presented as though it's a bad thing. It's not, it's what many small car fans want.
Please do comparative reviews for mg3 excite and the other mini cars. That would be awesome
What a fun comparison! These 2 guys are great.
What an awesome review, good real life decision making comparison, great storytelling, editing, overall just a good investment of my time, 2020 kia picanto vs 2020 swift next please
Kia picanto is the best
It doesnt matter what the other say about the car. It will always be beautiful on the eyes of the owner no matter how ugly it is.
I love my GT, which is the 1.0ltr 3cyl turbo.
Unfortunately there aren't too many reviews of this actual model, but heaps of the GT Line.
I've owned 2 generation swifts, and also driven the Picanto GT interstate and personally I'd rather be in the Picanto.
An interesting review thank you Car advice, If you think about it I quite agree with the conclusion, I would rather have the swift over a Kia Picanto Normal or GT line any day of the year. Why? It drives and handles nicely, Has more interior room and i think its more refined than the Kia, I own the previous generation swift and I think its brilliant. The Picanto just feels claustrophobic for me. Have not driven the new version yet but the previous version felt more jerky and had grabby brakes, not sure about the new one, But on that note I think Kia has done a decent job in the driving dynamics compared to the older Picanto so Kudos to Kia for that, Swift wins this comparison for me.
Great review guys!
Thanks Tebello!
hopefully you could compare swift GL and the GLX variant 😊😊
Most of my friends drove the Kia Picanto, they said they will never drive one again, if the car has to get any repairs done or work done on the engine, it is extremely expensive, more expensive than most small cars
Lool, this was really fun to watch. I would go for swift🤗💜🇿🇦
why the f*** will you want a factory GPS when you have Android auto and Google maps???
Kia's thoughts exactly. Waste of money
Because of P-plate restrictions prohibiting ANY use of a mobile phone.
Picanto any day.
Jordan’s Car Reviews, I’ve been on multiple test drives one after another and swift blows people away after they drive both cars, I think this review is very fair
You bet ...
@@chriscarolan7340no way Jose… swift is cooler and better in every way ✔️
The Swift is too wide for my long windy drive. I've looked at Picanto and the seats are a bit tight for a reasonable sized 'first world' derriere. And on your noise comparison, don't you think that the rush to mags (eminently scrapeable) and low profile tyres is counterintuitive when it comes to softer ride & indeed, NVH? [I know that the bottom model might fix that, but I want the gear & I'm prepared to pay].
KIA, interior ❤️
Loved the presenters!
I bought this .. happy with it . Just want sone instructions on Android auto
If you drive a swift glx turbo , you will realise how much better it is than a picanto. It feels infinitely better.
Waiting for my Swift GLX MT
Neither of these cars are available where I live, BUT I would definitely take the one with the lowest end tech. Fewer items to break.
top spec kia does have sat nav.
You forgot Blind spot mirrors on swift, traffic sign reader , 🤜🤛
How tall is the guy in the orange shirt? Well both of you.
Twin exhaust on a 1.2 L 😂
now I made up my mind...suzuki is the right choice
Cant go past the Suzuki, the Japanese have years more experience than the Koreans.
They would have neen better with a comparison with the Swift Sport.
Picanto, just too small. Just make it a bit bigger Kia. You'll have a winner by miles
Suzuki swift 👍
@Rhys’s Lowlux you're right, I was hesitating and I took the Suzuki swift 😃
Next time do a drag race if there is a Tie-------- 😀
This small Picanto is over equipped compared to the minimal equipped Swift and cost less - so keep the Swift - just have a look what the Korean 2021 Morning = named Picanto elsewhere and they have stuff only far more big brother may have. The new model should be on the market for $ 10000.- in the US.
I think that the decision depends on how tall you are, if you are short you should go for picanto since you will fit comfortably but if you are tall, you probably need the extra room so get the Suzuki
👍❤😍KIA😍❤👍
Swift Sport is the real made in Japan Swift and it was never even mentioned, anything less is a povo pack
How do you compare one of the top trim Picantos to one of the base trim Swifts? Are you daft?
Price
@@NB_NB_NB thank you for replying to my rhetorical question
Swift is such a good looking car
swiftt is noisy? fix your ear
Noup, the Picanto is more noisier they said..
Swift more power? NO! Picanto 100hv. Swift dont have steerwheel heater.
The driving feel and driving position of the swift are far superior to the kia . And you can bet it will be more reliable and durable in the long term . And the Kia's styling and proportions are rather uncoordinated.
@@cliffwilkins9178 They would have to be right up near the top. My cousin who has a swift has so many horror stories about service and warranty expirience and in comparison to my mother's new Picanto outright flimsy and the head unit is an utter joke. The Kia is Quality.
Bruh compare the gt with the sport not the stock
I like Kia picanto car . However, .the Kia shop in our place is dishonest and lots of cover up after they've damaged my car without telling me at first.
Nope tried both the GT line picanto is so much better.Wouldnt expect some camp hipsters to realise that.
But it’s not only a Kia, but also the cheapest Kia, that means it is worse than a Renault twizzy
suzuki...
kia sport vs suzuki comfort yeah good compare`s.... not compare it to suzuki sport to.
Kia is a teenagers car
Swift is a grandmas car
especially the sports version from Swift😎
compare dam 1.0 boosterjet automatic 6 speed..not cheap ass 1.2
Yes how the hell did they thought this was a fair comparison?
The suzuki is extremely boring the kia is gorgeous case closed
Rather have the picanto, that Suzuki is ugly af
