I remember when this guy reviewed the Mazda 3 back in 2017 and he received alot of backlash due to the lack of fluidity during his review. They were saying that he doesn't speak English well nor does he articulate well enough. Well, he has definitely come a long way from then. I see alot of improvement along with seamless cohesiveness in this review. Well done my friend. Well done.
This is one of the best Malaysian reviews for me. Jonathan does a great job to describe the car in a simple manner. The sentences are short and informative, yet he doesn't simply say everything on the brochure. I thought a simple review in Malaysia is too good to be true. Good for you, man. On a second note, the camera should help you out a little bit. Like the part you put your bag in the trunk, the viewers should be able to see inside the trunk too. That's just my two cents. Cheers
JA EX owner here. 1 year. loving it so much. i told myself to get a car max 50k ( smaller is better ). KL traffic is becoming much more horrible, so i guess Axia's size would be the best. then when i test drove it, I knew it has every little thing that counts for me personally. good inforainment system, excellent handling, "big car feeling" thanks to good build quality, mature looking interior like expensive car. the cons, a little small if planning to produce football team children. em, best for minimalist lifestyle ( which what I'm practicing ). if space is a concern, i believe this isnt the choice. but why not give it a try. you wont regret.
Just started the video and I'm already liking the car. I've been considering Picanto ever since the first DRIVEN compare against Axia and Iriz back in 2015. It's beautiful, no doubt. But, the GT line is far more better looking than the normal version. To be honest, it looks like an Abarth 595, but with grey paint rather than white. I've never seen your review(s), therefore I don't know what to expect. However, I enjoyed it. Thanks!
Whereas the EX's wheels are too small for the side profile, the GT Line although it looks good the 16 inch is a bit overkill to ride quality and replacement tyre costs, considering this is a budget car. Also the Nexen tyres on the GT and EX are good but let down the cars good NVH. Previous gen came with much quieter Hankook's on the 14/ 15" wheels. Interestingly the overseas gets a good alternative with a 15 inch wheel wrapped in continental premium contact tyres which is probably the best compromise.
It's a shame that this GT line does not equipped with a small turbo engine and 6 speed manual gearbox. It seems to have quite a good chassis to be a sporty lil hot hatch. I would rather take that combination and sacrifice sunroof reversing camera and leather seats.
I own one of these. Be prepared to theow out the awful speakers which are only 4 inch speakers with no tweeter speakers at all. However, once that is done you will have a great car that drives with the sure footedness of a medium sized car.
GT line without manual gb.. but ok la.. it is a city car to begin with..and as long as it quick & responsive ,it is acceptable car in this price point.
so basically its not a GT line. its a modified KIA picanto to make it look GT.haha. i was really hoping for a different engine. the word GT, S, Turbo is so abused by car makers nowadays
I just "rallied" the ex model at 80-90kmj on a gravel road.. the suspensions shock me.. i dont feel like I am on a gravel road.. it was so smooth but wont be doing it everyday.. dont wanna ruin the car😂
Please speak clearly and with proper dynamics for goodness sake. I have to increase the volume everytime you decide to go into whisper mode and with low tones. You might have come a long way since the past (I have read the comments) but you have to try even harder. Good try anyway, I’m not knocking you over as I find the shots of the car adequate which is the main point of a car review.

In worldwide, this model is the best A segment car. Well done kia.

does it (EX variant) come with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto?
Great review and shots, thank you.

One of the good compact car 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I love this review I love the Picanto 💜👌 thank u so much 👏
This guy is more suited to report English news in RTM.
How does it drives through rough roads, bumper & potholes compare to EX line?
Letopsssss sesangat❤️
Finally dpt jgak tgk gt line hehe
Already own one. Love it!
Wow. It's a very very handsome car. Feel like want to trade-in with my Kancil 😢 but ekonomi not kukuh yet 😂
Great Review. Would not have guessed this was a Non English country Review. Spoken very well. Would watch more from you

Looks like a Cygnet if you still remember that car.
Oh ya the AstonYota. 😄
Perhaps KIA should have offered the Picanto GT wuth the 1.4 Rio engine. No less a 4 speed auto but higher power output.
So poor why didn't have manual version in this Picanto GT spec😂😂
But actually it look nice and also suitable for everyone

Good review, 3000 rpm at 110 kmh seems a fifth gear would be more economical ?
i like the red highlights. very sleek
The 16 inch wheels is a little too big. I think 15 on the top trim would've been better.
Red inserts are like with the Yaris
'did i mention this car come with sun roof? Cun kan'
Instant like from me 😂
No Kia Rio 6-AT Review?
yes pls. Wanna know the performance of 6AT
Red is superb! I really like it! Sorry my dear friend! It looks great!
damn intro so good man
Ugh, I'm looking at KIA website now. Stinger is like 4 times the price. Same year. (2019 nov)
A very good review thank you.

No yellow color for GT line?yellow color with that red bits make it more garang. Even the normal picanto, the yellow color is garang too.
handling is very good, good for weekend drives and road trips. Iriz this and polo have the best handling
hopefully it will come back to Malaysia, for 2024 😢
Cruise control is important to me, is this the cheapest car with cruise control in Malaysia?
What's the difference between the normal Picanto and the GT?
I have thw 2017 model but I’m inlove with this 😍
I love Kia Picanto Turbo Gt Line
THE BEST CAR IN THE WORLD
what turbo, theres no turbo
Malaysia Market no tarbo
GT line without manual gb.. but ok la.. it is a city car to begin with..and as long as it quick & responsive ,it is acceptable car in this price point.
How bout the fuel? Eco or fuel saving?
I'd rather have this car flooding the Malaysian roads than the pathetic Axia and Myvi.
so basically its not a GT line. its a modified KIA picanto to make it look GT.haha. i was really hoping for a different engine. the word GT, S, Turbo is so abused by car makers nowadays
its the same as M Sport, AMG Line. Kia have their own performance variant GT spec cars as well. GT Line is just cosmetic changes
here and there the one with turbo is called the picanto gt...gt line means it wears all the gt spec accessories but not the engine
@@傻瓜在笑 Here in The Netherlands the GT-Line is a 1.0L-Turbo 3-Cyl with 100HP.
@@iHeatlock yes. 100HP
KIA picanto gt line ni tak kira u duit banyak macam mana pun tak dapat beli dah , sudah Stop production😒Stop production !
Diam la bodo
Pls do review of Kia Rio
I just "rallied" the ex model at 80-90kmj on a gravel road.. the suspensions shock me.. i dont feel like I am on a gravel road.. it was so smooth but wont be doing it everyday.. dont wanna ruin the car😂
casio rayale aye?
could anyone advice me would it be a struggle for this car model to climb a hill?..any si fu replys would be much appreciated..
It's not a bad car.

Why the heck your back right reflector red and left one red/white???
Trippy af
reverse light maybe, just a guess though
white one is for reverse and the red one is a fog light
Wow so beautiful. Kinda look alike axia but both of them so beautiful. Love ittt so much. Thanks for the review 😍😁
3:09 omg....full plastic door trim for RM 57k?
Ki a Picanto GT nice👍💪
I wanna reupload this video for my content. Thank you
Looks great though feels kinda copy Mini Cooper
Got manual,
Edit: Sad, no manual.
memorise your script better my brother. it really shows
Akhirnya
why so angry bro
Asking more money for the car size like Perodua axia??,...🤔🤔,...
👍🏽
no turbo?! pointless then!
Going "pedal to the metal" should have better acceleration feel in a non-turbo engine, I guess?
homeboy needs a tissue haha
The presenter are more "garang" than the car styling 😅
this car look almost identical to axia but the price is double just for few extra spec hm. just saying no offense
HAFIZZ I used to have that thinking. But refinement quality is something you can’t see on paper. You have to drive one to feel it.
Click bait. He has a normal sized head.
akward to see people talk from their sunroof..
No manual 😓
GT Line has 16" wheels so terrible ride and vinyl seats - yuk!
You sounded like you are imitating James May
Oh no, it's the music from a toll abolishment propaganda video 😩
Nightmare! Nightmare I tell you!
why everytime you end a sentence, you talked slower? is it a dis.... or..... der..?.. 🤣.. wwwwweeeeeeiiiirrrdddd..
We don't need the sunroof, ugly body kit and bigger wheels but we need the 1.0 turbo engine because this 1.25 engine is shit
84 hp and 122nm of torque? Gt spec? Hahahaha. What a joke. -laughing away in yellow myvi 1.5 lgbest - hahahahha
Too small. Too pricey, for a kpop car. Rather get proton instead. The back looks ugly.
Looks like axia.. MYVI still champion
Masa buat review, otg nak tau pasal kete nka tengok kete. Bukan nk tengok muka org yg bercakap..kalau boleh x tengok irg yg bercakap pun x pe.
Amo RiusgiLLar pulak dah
Hideous red highlights.
"GT Line" but no manual.. pfft, pathetic.
There is a 1 litre manual turbo
