I was in a Kia dealership the other month and was sitting in a Picanto GT line and was asking the salesman questions …he said the picanto auto is being replaced with a Robotic auto gearbox so no longer a traditional talk converter box, it could be a transition from old to new style gearbox at the factory and the old style are all sold out hence why no longer on the scheme.
I was making inquiries on my daughters behalf but only looking at a used example, I can see them becoming sort after if the new gearbox is not as good as the old one ?
