Kia Picanto – Honest John’s 'Most Popular Small Car'

The Kia Picanto has been voted ‘Most Popular Small Hatchback’ at the 2012 honestjohn.co.uk awards fending off strong competition from both mainstream and premium brands.

The honestjohn.co.uk awards aren’t decided upon by judges or a panel but by the
consumers themselves who visit the website. Awards are determined by the number of users who search for a car’s review on the site in the year running up to the awards.

"This award shows that the value-packed Kia Picanto has captured the imagination of our users. Big car features, low running costs and a huge warranty have all contributed to it being the most popular small car on the site over the past 12 months," said Dan Harrison, Editor of honestjohn.co.uk.

Commenting on the award, Michael Cole, Managing Director, Kia Motors UK Limited said, “We know that honestjohn.co.uk is an important source of information for consumers visiting our showrooms so I’m delighted that Picanto has proved so popular for Honest John to have given us this award.”

“Picanto has proved popular with critics and customers alike since the latest version went on sale last June but awards from customers themselves are the highest accolade,” added Cole.
