Hyundai i10 N Line vs Kia Picanto GT-Line 2021: Which one is the better choice? Full English Review 

I appreciate the time you took to film a version of this review in english. Thank you for the additional effort.

Just test drove both before buying the Picanto GT line S, the Picanto just felt so much more nippy, the I10n felt fat and more stable, so much more kit in the Gt line than the I10n feels very much like Hyundai got cheap on the interior, I was hoping for more with the I10n but tbh I was very much underwhelmed with it, in the end getting the GT line S was an easy choice....

Thank you for doing english for german market cars.

A very grown up and comprehensive review. Thank you.

I really liked your video, your captures and edition are great I already have a Picanto GT Line and I continue loving it, thanks for doing this video, it helps a lot even talking about german versions.

Great Review - I like the comparison of two likewise city cars

Very well translated and informative , thank you .

Thank you so much for your review and helping me to think more deeper about my choice before I buy.

Kia Picanto The best car in the world!

Thanks for your review of the Kia Picanto and Hyundai i10. Unfortunately we don't get the Hyundai i10 in Australia. From the owners of an extremely reliable 2004 Hundai Getz. [we use the Getz mainly for shopping as second car.] Melbourne Australia. (2023)

I drive a 2018 Picanto with the standard 4cyl 1.2L motor and a 4 speed auto. It's a great handling and practical car, but is underpowered on normal 91 octane fuel. I use 98 octane now and it's much better but it's still not what I would consider as sporty. It's a small city car basically. It is quite economical but having only 4 speed auto instead of 5, the motor revs too fast at 110km/hr, the maximum legal speed here in Australia and economy takes a hit. You can see this on the display where you get an option for an instantaneous L/100km reading. It's much happier at 100km/hr. I would like to swap it for the three cylinder turbo with manual gear change. Most of the shortcomings of the standard Picanto would be overcome imho. It has a bit more power but a big gain in torque, and then there's the manual gear change. My recommendation if you are going for a Picanto: go for the three cylinder manual, it will be so much more fun!

Great review

I have the GT line s picanto and love it.I do prefer the interior of the i10 but the gen before the new pics to looks better.Fun car to drive and in the UK the GT line s comes with sun roof and wireless charging and heated steering wheel.The new version dosent have the sun roof which is a shame.

Thank you for a very informative video 👍🤓

Very comprehensive review and you wouldn't make a mistake by choosing either of these cars. Here in the UK the Picanto is quite a bit cheaper than the i10 so that may tip the balance for many potential buyers, especially as the Kia has a more youthful, sporty image. A beef here - why do ALL reviewers and motoring journalists refer to the cars' head RESTRAINTS as head RESTS? You don't rest your head on them - they are there to RESTRAIN and protect your head against whiplash in the unfortunate event of a collision.

I've bought a 21 plate (2021) Kia Picanto GT-Line S "Bumblebee" (special edition last run of the pre-facelift model which is a 1.0l turbo but uprated to the 118bhp like the Rio; it's good for 0 - 62 in 8.4 seconds, so a warm hatch as opposed to a hot hatch). Great fun to drive, sporty, direct and stable

Great review of both cars. Personally I like the more grown-up and the slightly bigger i10.

can drive it long distance ?

Hi thoroughly enjoyed the review, I'm curious to know if there's a great deal of difference in driving the N-Line and the 1.2 i10? I've short listed this car but wondered if going for the turbo has any real advantage over the 1.2, although I do like the look of the N-Line.

I have the 1.2 i10 premium and love it. Was going to wait for the N Line, thankfully I didn’t as I haven’t seen one over here in the UK as of yet....?

Finally , which one is the better choice ??

The I10 for me . Better car for general use.

I drove 1200km in picanto gt with no trouble. Very comfortable ride

We are impatiently and eagerly waiting for Kia Picanto 1.2 ltr petrol engine variant to get introduce in India 🇮🇳....❤❤❤❤

I wish more superminis would take the Yaris (GR Sport) route and add bigger car tech. There also needs to be an auto option! Hyundai i10N Performance 😎

Kia picanto 1.0 Tgdi xline... The best choice....

I'm confuse i dont know what to choose between this two🙄

I can’t decide! I love the petite size and practicality of the picanto , but I prefer the look and the properties the the the Hyundai has - would you say it’s worth the extra money to buy the Hyundai?

Thank you for a great video. Am I right in thinking the Hyundai didn't do as well as the Kia in the crash tests ?

I think the front LED of the i10 is too bright.. I hate when an i10 come in front of me..

We have a 2018 Picanto GT line-S with the TGdi engine and it's good fun to drive. It's fairly brisk but not really a GT, although it is half a second faster to 62 mph than the Hyundai. If only Kia had kept the more powerful tune of this engine which develops 118 bhp in the RIO. The interior is very nicely finished and feels like a more expensive car. The lack of a delay wipe at the rear is a major annoyance though.

Wonder when I can get the N line with Climate control in the Uk. Hope to purchase before June 2021

For me then i10!

Why do reviewers always review the Picanto GT/Line/X with 16" wheeels and vinyl seats? Its tacky and gaudi and has bad reflections from the non black trim inserts. The 3 spec is the best one. The i10 is very dull compared to the Picanto. Notice that both the Picanto and i10 have spare wheel wells but come with a pump and a can of goo! Get the space saver wheel with jack kit for £85 on ebay.

i10

i'm currently in the market for a new toyota aygo, but i feel like by paying maybe 1000 euro more i get so much more utility and refinement with the i10. i think i will go for the hyundai i10 with the 1.2 n/a 4cyl 85 bhp

salve la sua altezza quale è ?

I drive the latest version of the Twingo GT but Renault no longer sell it here in the UK so I am considering buying either a Picanto GT or Hyundai N-line in about a year's time. I agree with you that the Hyundai seems the better option although they are very closely matched.

I had my test drive in Picanto GT 2022 with automatic gearbox last week, and it was awful 😖 filling , like you drive manual gearbox car. I accelerate, but car does not speed up, it is just weird filling of changes of gears, but that supposed to be a smooth. Even my Nissan Micra 2013 was so fast and smooth.

2021 Hyundai i10 N Line. -DCT transmission when there should be another option in the range so...👍🏼👌🏼😎

So the i10 n is turbo and steptronik and the picanto is not turbo and normal automatic?

Hyundai much better looking! The winner for me.

Lack of 6th gear is surprising, other than that nice little cars

I wish the i10 looked like the Honda Jazz, which I wish wasn't a hybrid. :/

Purchased a Picanto GT line 2021 with D type steering wheel instead after visiting the kia showroom and seeing and examining Picanto GT line model variant myself.. I agree that i10 is more spacious for rear passengers (probably by no more than 2.5cm) but GT line is a like a Picasso painting. 7 years warranty for Kia vs 5 years for Hyundai. In my mind Kia Wins. It is good to hear experts opinion but why dont you take decision and give a winner ??? I will not mention that it also depends on the factory and problems with labour (protests) or factory location and its history of quality cars or not. Korea vs Turkey. Perception can be a decisive factor :). but Design and Technology as offered in a particular model variant (package with more options and design choices) as offered in a a localized market can help one decide and make a choice. ok I lost knee space for the rear passengers, and I have to learn to live by this shortcoming. But wait, according to KIA Picanto specs for GT line it is 2670 in length same as Hyundai i10 (this is is contrary to what I have listened in other videos reviews). Confused?? I am getting a facelift model with most problems rectified..1.2 engine 4 cylinder and transmission is same for both models (i10 and picanto). My two cents. CThe clear winner for 1.2 variant auto is Picanto GT line.

Confusing AF as to what car is what! The GT line in Australia is the 4 cylinder and the GT is the 3 cylinder turbo. Even my dealer appeared confused when I ordered last week. If I wait five months and a 4 cylinder turns up they’ll get a whole world of embarrassment 🤣

يارب ارزقني سيارة مثلهم

Picanto all day long

Hyundai is more stylish. Kia will date faster has that transformer look.

Hyundai i10 !

Easy win for the Kia IMHO

I10 is better❤

I10 is better

No spare wheel, no deal.

Hyundai looks more sporty, the interior is superior, but what about the small VW with 15hp more?

Kia accelerates better hyu drives 1km more a gallon i think

Ils se prennent vraiment au sérieux avec un prix de départ à 18.000€ pour N.line...... c'est une blague.

Deutsch und Englisch Kauderwelsch. 😂

Both are really nice. ✨💫 But I prefer Kia. 💙🤍❤️
