Kia has given its Picanto city car the SUV treatment through a new model called the Picanto X-Line.

The high-riding, chunkier version of the Picanto will make its debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

Proving that not even the city car is safe from the SUV juggernaut - as the likes of Suzuki's Ignis has shown - the Picanto X-Line features suspension that has been raised by 15mm and additional plastic cladding, metal-look side skirts and wheel arch flares to give it a more rugged appearance.

Power comes from a 1.0-litre three-cylinder turbo-petrol engine producing 73kW and 172Nm of torque with a claimed average consumption of 4.5L/100km - the same engine that will feature in the sportier GT-Line variant that is being evaluated for Australian sales.
