Judged by a panel of experts from Carbuyer and Alphr, the Kia was found to be the car with the easiest to operate tech/infotainment system.
Featuring TomTom navigation, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Carbuyer Editor, Stuart Milne tells us the little Kia is a step ahead of rivals on car tech functionality.
“Proving once and for all that clever and well-judged technology isn’t the preserve of expensive models, the Kia Picanto is startlingly easy to use.
“Our judges were bowled over by the superb responsiveness offered by the colour touchscreen, while we found the organisation and positioning of the menus shames cars costing three times as much.
“The fact that the Picanto also has physical buttons (as seen below) for the most frequently used functions sealed the deal.”
