Picanto is a no no for me. Engine too small and drive extremely draggy and powerless.
Not tested Kelissa. But i cant accept its look
Ya, I also think the FL Rio sedan looks good. If budget allows, should be considering it. For hatchback, maybe a Chervolet Aveo.
Also agreed Picanto is a NO NO, that is why I got Kelisa. As for looks, very subjective.

But never the least these are the cheapest new cars in town.
