KIA Ceed since its appearance in the "firmament" of the world automotive market was able to radically change the attitude of buyers to the Korean auto industry.

The first KIA Sid turned out to be so successful and reliable that the facelift carried out at the beginning of 2010 was aimed only at correcting the appearance (for the general model image) and improving consumer qualities.

At one time (starting from January 2007, when the model was first presented to customers), many European and Russian car owners moved to Kia cee'd from cars of famous European brands. Let's look at bestseller Kia from the height of the years lived by the model. And the time is right for summing up, because the premiere of the second generation Kia ceed.

The exterior of the KIA ceed can be described as restrained and harmonious, without aggressive accents. It seems that in such a peaceful design lies the success of the model and its popularity among different representatives of the age categories of car owners.

The front of the KIA LED looks slightly frowned thanks to the shape of the front lighting (complex headlights) and the beak of the false radiator grille with a chrome edging. A bumper with a lower air intake and side-mounted foglights harmoniously complements the basic lighting technology. The hood has distinctive ribs. Originally passing through the plane of the cover engine compartment and the vyshtampovki soaring up seem to merge with the front roof pillars.

Sidewalls body kia cee'd - the personification of the style inherent in European cars, all elements have smooth transitions and are devoid of loudness and kitsch. Circular wheel arches slightly inflated (able to accommodate tires with discs 225/45 R17), mirrors - with trendy repeaters.

The proportions of the body are pleasing to the eye, with the roofline sloping towards the rear. The stern is sculpted, the powerful rear roof pillars create a sense of confidence and security. Elegant taillights - "chandeliers" are located high, the fifth tailgate has a large glass area, correct and convenient configuration. Ends track named KIA Ceed rear rounded bumper. The car in the five-door hatchback design demonstrates both solidity and passion.

External dimensions Kia cee'd: length - 4235 mm, width - 1790 mm, height - 1480 mm, base - 2650 mm, ground clearance - 150 mm.

The internal component continues the calmness and quality of the exterior. The plastics of the front dashboard are soft and pliable, well-profiled front seats and a huge range of adjustments make it possible to comfortably accommodate the driver with a height above 190 cm. wheel with control buttons located on it, it is pleasant to hold in your hands. The ergonomics and tactility of the finishing materials in the KIA ceed are commendable. Everything is close at hand, the placement of controls is intuitive.

The quality of materials and the level of assembly of the cabin are also on top, even in the smallest detail. Both the exterior and the inside of the Cee'd make it clear that this is an ambitious vehicle. Ceiling handles with microlift, power windows with automatic function opening-closing, intelligent turn signals (swung to the side - and worked on the machine three times), dual-zone climate control in the Prestige package. And such useful "things" as heated mirrors and front row seats, electric power steering, on-board computer, adjustment of the front seats in height and adjustment of the side support rollers, rain and light sensors, parking sensors, are generally taken for granted in this car.

Dimensions salon Kia cee'd impressive, the Korean is perhaps the record holder in its class. In the second row, passengers will not be constrained, there is enough legroom and overhead space. The size of the trunk is 340 liters in the stowed state, with the rear seats folded down, the capacity indicator increases to 1300 liters. A pleasant bonus is good (by the standards of class C) noise and sound insulation of the passenger compartment and engine compartment.

KIA ceed specifications and performance.
The Cee'd hatchback is built on a Hyundai-Kia front-wheel drive platform and is a co-platform for the Hyunda i30. The front suspension is independent with MacPherson struts and an anti-roll bar, the rear double wishbone is also independent. Front and rear disc brakes - with ABC and EBD. For cars, gasoline and diesel four-cylinder engines are provided.

  • 1.6 CRDi VGT (115 hp) with 5 manual gearboxes;
  • 2.0 CRDi VGT (140 HP) with 6 manual transmissions.

As usual russian buyers only petrol versions are available.

The suspension settings allow KIA Siid to move with confidence not only on roads with a good, even surface, but also on a bad road surface (which, as you know, is abundant in our latitudes). Suspension perfectly fulfills irregularities, the car is stable in all speed modes. Thanks to decent sound insulation and high-quality suspension elements (stabilizers, silent blocks, shock absorbers), a minimum of knocks and vibrations from the road are transmitted to the cabin. Active control system (electric power + system stabilization ESP) helps the driver of the Kia ceed in critical situations correct piloting errors and feel confident on the road. Mechanical boxes with low strokes and precise switching, the machine also leaves a pleasant impression. A 1.4-liter engine is suitable only for a leisurely driver; a 1.6-liter (126 hp) engine with 6 manual transmissions is recognized as the best choice. The Kia cee'd is fun to drive, obedient and predictable. Korean engineers continue to make progress and are already really stepping on the heels of Japanese and European competitors.

KIA Ceed is an elegant hatchback with ideal shapes, excellent interior ergonomics and a variety of electronic equipment. It is fully oriented towards the European market, taking into account the tastes and preferences of European consumers. The cee`d has a sporty design with sleek lines running from its aerodynamic nose and grille through the bonnet to the front high point of the roof. The solid rear view of the vehicle underlines its powerful nature with its wide, well-balanced sides and neatly cut wheel arches. The compactness of the Ceed is given by the color-coded integrated bumpers that highlight the front and rear lightsgiving a sweep to the car.

The length of 4,235 meters is unusually large wheelbase (2650 mm), this is the key to the most impressive interior volume in the segment. A practical and well-planned space, Cee`d offers a spacious interior with ample headroom and legroom. Comfortable bucket seats with lumbar support and tilt steering column ensure an ideal driving position. Luggage compartment holds up to 340 liters.

Engine options provide a choice from the most economical to the most powerful version. Ceed comes with 4 engines: petrol with a displacement of 1.4, 1.6 and 2.0 liters, and diesel with a displacement of 1.6 liters. Powerful acceleration together with excellent braking system and improved suspension provide stability and confidence on the road, as well as a sporty and invigorating experience.

Сee`d is fully equipped with independent suspension, both front and rear, designed to provide precise handling and a soft, comfortable ride on the road. Suspension front - McPherson, rear - on double wishbones. Rubber from 195 / 65R to 15 inch wheels up to 225 / 45R by 17 inches - depending on the version. Disc brakes in a circle: ventilated front with a diameter of 280 mm, rear - 262 mm.

Experts note the Kia Ceed's rigid and tightly stitched support structure. The car willingly taxies into a bend and flawlessly follows a curved trajectory, responsive to the driver's commands.

Particular attention is paid to the safety of passengers: all vehicles are equipped with ABS, EBD, BAS, 6 airbags and active head restraints. The body is designed to absorb the shock wave in a collision as much as possible and to maintain the same body structure where it is most needed. The stability of the car while driving is provided by the ESP system.

In 2007 at Geneva Motor Show the premiere of KIA Cee "d SW took place and the last letters mean not Station Wagon, as usual, but Sporty Wagon.

The station wagon turned out to be noticeably longer than the hatchback - "extra" 235 mm fell on the rear overhang. Thanks to this, the luggage compartment volume has grown by almost 200 liters and is 534 liters. The highlight of the newly developed rear end is the original fifth door, the axis of which is moved along the roof by a whopping 225 mm. Overall dimensions of Cee "d SW - 4470x1790x1490 mm.

As the main driving force gas engine volume of 2.0 liters with a capacity of 143 hp. Maximum speed: 205 km / h; acceleration to 100 km / h - 10.6 s. Transmission: front wheel drive; transmission - mechanical 5-speed.

It is noteworthy that the Cee "d SW has a seven-year warranty for mileage of up to 150,000 km. Of these, the first five years cover the entire car, and the last two - only the engine and transmission. Representatives of the company say that this model is a real leap in quality.

In 2007, the 3-door hatchback debuted. As befits a modern three-door, this is, above all, a sporty interpretation of the base model. The Kia Pro-cee’d looks much more dynamic and aggressive than the family five-door hatchback. The model will differ from the five-door version with new headlights, slightly modified design back door, and, of course, it became shorter by 30 mm. The silhouette has become more squat. Front bumper received new design, and its design now visually expands the car downward, which works on its stability and emphasizes the high-speed inclinations.

The design of the Pro-cee’d was carried out in Europe under the direction of the head of the design center Peter Schreier, who previously worked for Volkswagen. The car is planned to be assembled at a factory in Slovakia.

The Pro-cee'd engine options will be the same as on the current model. Unless for the sports modification, only powerful versions of 1.6 liters (122 hp) and 2.0 liters (143 hp) will be left.

At the Geneva Motor Show 2012 took place the world kia premiere Cee'd new generation hatchback. With the wheelbase unchanged, the car became slightly longer than its predecessor - 4 310 against 4 260 mm, but at the same time a little narrower and lower by 10 mm - 1780 and 1470 mm, respectively. Trunk volume has grown from 340 to 380 liters.

Ceed's design has become more aggressive and impetuous. The wide bumper air intake emphasizes the dynamism of the car. The radiator grille, designed by Peter Schreier, has grown noticeably in size. The head optics got LEDs. Added a beautiful edging of fog lights. The mirrors are fitted with repeaters that duplicate the direction indicators.

The interior was also completely transformed and became more respectable. The manufacturer paid special attention to finishing materials. High-quality plastic is present not only on the front panel, but also on the car doors. The creators also worked on sound insulation, it became very quiet in the cabin. New instrument cluster informative and pleasing to the eye. The four-spoke steering wheel was equipped with girth tides and function keys.

The richest version of the C'eed uses a combined seat trim, the doors have light leather inserts, and the handles are finished in chrome. Compared with previous generation2012 equipment is impressive: large display multimedia system with touch control, automatic parking system, two-zone climate control and two-section a roof with a panoramic view... True, all of the above wealth is rigidly tied to the complete sets, in contrast to European brands, where you can "assemble" a car for yourself. And to buy a C'eed, for example, with a glass roof, you have to pay for the rest of the list of options.

The ride of the car has become smoother. This became possible due to the use of shock absorbers of a new design. On russian market Cee'd is offered with gasoline engines volume of 1.4 (100 HP) and 1.6 (130 HP) liters. The former is offered exclusively with a 6-speed manual transmission, while a more powerful one can be ordered paired with a six-speed automatic transmission.

The system operates in three modes: Comfort, Normal and Sport. In the first, the steering wheel can be rotated with one finger, in the second there is a slight resistance, and only "sport" is the most informative algorithm of interaction between the driver and the car.

The announcement of the Kia Sid took place in 2012 and since then the car has managed to attract a lot of attention from motorists, experts in the automotive industry and critics.

It is noteworthy in the case of this model that the company, when creating it, was guided by Europe - hence the pleasant and modest appearanceas well as outstanding quality and fit of interior fittings.

The car, updated last year, as noted by the manufacturer, has absorbed not only kia seed 2011 technical characteristics, but also added in aggressiveness and became more modern, and this applies not only to the exterior, but also to some interior elements.

At the moment, the car is being produced in Slovakia, however, the company emphasized that after a while the assembly of the modernized one will begin in the Russian Federation, at the Kaliningrad plant Kia.

It is worth noting that even with the release of the update, the vehicle was able to maintain its value at the same level, due to which Sid justifiably bears the title of one of the most justified cars in terms of price and quality.

Exteriors

The designers decided not to go to extremes, while maintaining the overall style vehicle... The designers have made a small correction, taking into account the latest global trends. The vehicle has got an updated optics pattern, much more interesting fog lightsintegrated into the bumper. Also, the radiator grille has changed, adding in size and becoming more stylish.

The lower parts of the side doors were supplemented with a longitudinal rib, and the outlines of the body became more elongated and now it resembles a rifle bullet. This decision influenced aerodynamic drag and, in fact, the fuel consumption of the car. It is possible to notice differences in the update profile and the predecessor by new wheel rims, which received a much more curious and beautiful drawing.

The rear of the car has a massive bumper and updated dimensions that add aggressiveness to the vehicle. The designers emphasized that the main task is to change the exteriors towards a more aggressive appearance.

The latter type is in great demand in our country, since it has a stylish, sporty-aggressive appearance, and it is also characterized by greater practicality in daily use. In general, the Kia Seed Station wagon technical characteristics make a positive impression.

One of the main advantages of the updated version is the interiors, which have become not only more respectable, but also characterized by better spaciousness in comparison with the others. The manufacturer emphasized that the vehicle interior is much more expensive and of high quality in terms of finishing materials.

It is important to note that the gloss used to decorate some interior elements is made of a scratch-resistant material, which is a significant advantage over competitors whose gloss finish is rapidly covered with scratches.

Besides, car salon became significantly quieter, which was realized through the use of the latest sound-insulating material, thus, in no way inferior to European counterparts.

It is curious that an individual dashboardwhich has become more stylish and elegant.

On the new car, the steering wheel received extensive multifunctionality, which in more expensive versions can be trimmed with leather high Quality... Transport has acquired a push-button engine start system, which now has a pleasant-to-touch brushed aluminum.

In the universal version, the volume increased to 528, which can be increased more than 3 times by folding the second row seats.

For the most part, vehicle interiors have become better quality and more ergonomic. The fact that Kia paid a lot of attention to nuances, which is not particularly characteristic of Korean cars, deserves a separate mention.

The updated car has got upgraded suspension, with which it turned out to significantly reduce noise and vibrations transmitted to the vehicle interior. Also, the designers installed updated struts and hollow-type stabilizers, which had a positive effect on lateral stability... The changes were made to the steering wheel settings and the geometry of the front wheels.
