Kia Picanto recovery and towing
The Picanto is Kia Lucky Motors' entry-level 1.0-litre hatchback, popular as a city car and a first car for students and working families. It is sold in Pakistan with both a manual and an automatic gearbox. Manual Picantos can be wheel-lifted by the front (driven) wheels for short distances.
