What is the best type of oil for a Kia Picanto engine?

I recently bought a 2019 Kia Picanto and I'm not sure what type of oil to use for the engine. Should I use synthetic or conventional oil? And what is the recommended viscosity for this model? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

It is recommended to use synthetic oil for optimal performance in your Kia Picanto. The viscosity should be 5W-30 for this model.

I have a friend who also has a Kia Picanto and she has been using conventional oil without any issues. It's really a personal preference, but make sure to check the viscosity recommended by Kia.

I would recommend sticking with synthetic oil for your Kia Picanto. It may be a bit more expensive, but it will provide better engine protection and longer oil change intervals.

I have been using 10W-40 conventional oil in my Kia Picanto for years and it has never given me any problems. Just make sure to do regular oil changes.
