Thank you Autogefuhl for this reveal video. Hopefully there's more videos like this to come. Persuade all manufacturers to give you this opportunity.

Great review, lots of info and (always) a pleasure to see. Thanks Thomas! Attractive car and with 7 years warrenty miles ahead of the competition!

I enjoy your car reviews....great job..

damn..kia is killing the game with such a lovely cars lately ...

To think it was only 15 years ago when Kia/Hyundai only had low cost rubbish to offer us.... Amazing progress! Shows all other companies what can be done with patience and the right strategy. I would personally consider one of their cars now.

such a high quality review, good job guys

Thank you. A very good review. I look forward to driving it.

Kia's design language is better than current Hyundai's. Has their own design character. Something which Hyundai has lost by looking like a pirated Audi with the big grille.

Great review - very very professional, as always.

Honestly i really like how it looks outside and inside as well. Actually what i have complained about in the 2nd generation was fixed here, thump up for that. I am really curios about this new 7DCT geabox. This perticular card was for sure high spec options but anyways, i like it all. BTW, great preview, good job Sir !!!

Great review

...in Full HD ... Full screen and Full lenx... Letz goe

Thanks for English version. When I noticed u-umlaut I expected German speech, so I was really positively surprised :)

Thank you Thomas, I was wondering if there will be a coupe/fastback version as Hyundai did with the i30 to European market, but apparently and sadly no... :( Thank you for this exclusive, long and complete video !

I am impressed with what You do! And thankfull :-)

Like the Kia design but for me personally the new Rio would fit. Pleasure to watch as always.👍

this channel has the best car video reviews!!

Love the humble seat recommendation.

Ace video, bruh... the best reviews full stop.

Superb review review of the new C'eed Thomas. This car looks very attractive and up market, with hints of the Kia Nero from the side. :-)

Hi Thomas, will you do doing a test drive on the 2019 Kia Forte? Many thanks!

You won a new subscriber! Great review

Great review as usual Thomas; it's seems to me that all car companies nowadays copy on every detail to the Korean's which I think should be less cheaper than to invest millions for their own car designs.

Is so beautiful exterior and interior.

German Clark Kent does the most detailed car reviews, hands down. Also, not saying that he is German Superman, but have you ever seen them together in the same room?

Excellent review Thomas... When we will enjoy the full review;

cool vehicle for budget and driving, when station version will be revealed Thomas, thank you for your efforts.

I bought a Ceed SW last year, I knew there will be a new model released very soon. I like the changes in the exterior, I love the new headlights in the front and in the back, I like the changes in the interior. I do not feel so bad for buying what it now is last gen Kia Ceed.

Wow, you guys are some of the first medias in the world to show this car! Haven't seen it anywhere else. Good job!

Will you do a review in the alfa romeo stelvio quadrifoglio ?? And was their one there?

Will the CEED/Forte perform as well as the Hyundai Elantra GT (I-30)?

This is the first time that I like the Kia tiger grille. And actually the first time I like the design of a Kia enough that I would serious think about buying one in future. Great looking car. And I’m just happy to see any car that’s not a crossover these days. But that analogue dash. I can’t go back to something like that after driving a Zoe for 2 years or maybe 3.

Cant wait for driving expierence. And dont forget sound insulation :) because interior looks really promising..... and if drives good = good buy. Cheers Thomas for really fast impression of this car.

Sure, Thomas and Autogefühl is best on youtube. We have to say that 10 points and 5 stars ★★★★★. For vehicle, About exterior design; honestly I liked if you compare Hyundai i30 which is brother of Ceed I can say Ceed is pretty good and impressive even though Mercedes A and Opel Astra design elements for side&rr portion. Coming to interior; simple and looks like high quality but it has no new technology like full digital instrument or head up display maybe it has ??? I completely agree w/you Thomas price performance very very very important, why also new generation Hyundai i30 has many standard options and increased quality level but price increased as well therefore market performance little bit slow previous model. See you next review....

Another great review Thomas. Shades of BMW 1 Series from the rear, bit concerned no external body side protection strip which will see lots of door dents and paint chips from car park parking. Shame the rear seats dont fold totally flat and leave a slight angle meaning larger loads could be a little difficult.. Need to find the driving review now!

Designed by a German, engineered by a German, built in Europe... by a Korean company. What an interesting time we live in! Great review Thomas.

nice design and quality, the GT-Line with the better design will be my favorite for sure :)

Looks promising... Kia is one of three brands those current modellines I like most: VW, Renault and Kia.

It looks fantastic, especially inside and is feature rich!

great review as always Thomas. glad to see you're not wearing a suit with running shoes also :D

just one word: WOW

Thank you for the review! The hardest part of the interview was to choose an innovation to discuss about:) Is that "line assist" really an innovation? My perception of KIA up to now: is like those 4 star hotels where you check-in and feel entrapped in a small room (and not the only disappointment), but with all the 4 star required items available (to get the certification), just to be there so that you cannot comment, the price being also lower than in other better 4 star hotels. Kia needs more powerful engines to convince me that they are a 4 star competitor. After this review I have more interest to see the new Ceed in the showroom when available.

(Another) nice review Thomas. Can't wait for the driving test... DO you know if it will be available in a GT Line version?

Does the trunk volume of a hatchback also include the volume above parcel shelf? Always confusing to see hatchbacks have roomier trunk but smaller volume than their sedan version.

The top of the line, high spec version of any car will seem great. I like Kia though.

As always great job! Thank you, Thomas! I'm an owner of an outgoing model. In Russia we have tough conditions for any car. And I should say its a pretty reliable vehicle. My car is equipped with 1.6 naturally aspirated petrol engine with 130 h.p. and a torque converter automatic gear box. There are no any problems at all. Of course, engine and gear box choices in Russia are distinguished from European ones. May be someone can say something regarding KIA's dual clutch transmission reliability? Majority of brands have serious problems in this regard....

Great walk-trough Thomas! Any "trustworthy" words from KIA about electrification/plug-in? Also good news regarding the always-on tail lights!

Very nice design! I hope it drives as well as it looks. Would buy one instantly if I had the cash.

To be honest the car looks really good. Will be even more tempting with the GT-line package.

About time Forte and ceed has design harmony

Car's wide stance give it a very planted feel. Really liking the new look fascia, aesthetic design of head/tail lamps. Hhmm I'm thinking maybe(?) a 5-dr. fastback body style like from the Hyundai i30 could be the new addition to replace slow selling 3-dr. Impressive interior, dash lay-out. Another Top review/feature Thomas. Noticed something fishy going on with the camera lighting, could just be playing up with the in-door light/background.

Hope this comes to Australia. Would prefer this to the Hyundai i30. I guess pro'ceed would match the i30n now. Nice touch on the "detonator" style key fob. I hope that becomes standard for all kia cars

Thomas is best

Can u guys pls try to review a Fiat 500 (regular one)?

Pretty good job done with the Ceed... However the rear lights seem too high for me - putting it like 10 cm lower would make the car look better for me...

KIA really did get the job right with the Cee'd Sportswagon. We've had one 1st generation and two 2nd generation models and couldn't fault the second generations on design, looks, comfort or performance. They were an absolute pleasure to drive. We've seen the 3rd generation Sportswagon in the flesh and would have dearly loved to have upgraded to a model of our own. Unfortunately the KIA dealership couldn't be trusted. We had a paint warranty issue which they were supposed to correct. Whilst the vehicle was in their care they crashed it, then tried to deny they were responsible for the damage. They removed the rear bumper panel for respray and failed to refit it correctly afterwards. It tended to vibrate when the vehicle was driven. Twice I took it back to have it corrected and twice they got it wrong. In the end I did it myself. The paint correction lasted less than one year and when we highlighted the problem, they didn't appear interested. And then there was the new 7th edition automatic we almost bought, but discovered the paintwork was damaged quite badly when we went along to collect the vehicle from the showroom. Salesperson was not amused but not quite as un-amused as we were. We've now gone back to Subaru and are the proud owners of a 2018 Impreza hatchback. But I still love the new KIA Sportswagon.

Excellent work , what you do Thomas! Why the inner frame in the engine bay is red?

Astra K has ventilated seats - it comes with AGR seats option.

I have just bought KIA Cee'D 2017 model with 3500eur dicount. This is very nice car, but steering wheel from old model is more atractive to me.

The i30 is equipped with seat cooling as well.

the rear could be a little better but, overall it is very nice looking. Good contender for a next car

Bellísimo auto, cada vez están mejor los autos de los coreanos de kia, que pena que este modelo no llegue a Peru, saludos y éxitos

Dear thomas,us autogefuhl fanatics would love to see a 2017 renault clio rs and suzuki swift sport 2018 & the 2018 ford fiesta st review

Can't wait for driving part !!! ;)

So it’s the new Cee apostrophe D?

Hey when will you do a review of the Kia Stinger ? :)

Awesome car inside and out

Nice and well done car, but again in the end this car it´s like a mixture of ideas from other cars. I see a Ford Fiesta in the back, some elements of Golf inside, a Megane in the side view... designed to be liked be almost everyone

Thomas - Thank you for this review - out of curiosity - why you did not conducted the review of Kia Stinger?

Not bad. So the same wheelbase means it’s still the same platform and just an extensive facelift.

Great review as usual! But Thomas, I disagree with you when you say this model is a big improvement quality wise. I just bought the current model, GT line trim, and it also has the whole dash in soft plastic and you have leather and soft plastic even on the back doors (this new one has hard plastic). Not only that, the instrument cluster is digital, while the new model has only a small screen between the gauges. The quality is nothing to die for, in my opinion. So, even if the current model is old, I don't find it outdated (interior wise), it even has the same infotainment system as the new one, only an inch smaller (but better integrated, which is rare these days). I am curious on how the GT line trim will look like, because on the current model it makes the car feel a lot more premium and sporty. Gotta love Kia, decent prices on exciting quality cars, with 7 year warranty and (in the current model) 7 year free maintenance. Cheers!

Nice car, loved it.

The middle tunnel is exactly as in the current golf

Hyundai & Kia’s are the most exciting brands currently...beside Porsche and AMG...

The steering wheel sorted remind me of the newer Mercedes ones.

Gorgeous interior Kia

Very nice car. I like it.

I think halogen should be removed all together from the cars. Bi-Xenon and LED headlights are so much better. I can't imagine going back to halogen now :/. Oh, and awesome review as always, Thomas!

Australia?

i like ur casual look betterand ur hairback looks better.still got a nice german accent~~~~

Круто. Симпатичен новый сид

Kia did a awfull job with the new sportage but the rest are thankfully much better

Good looking car

Will this come to the US as the Forte5??

I wish they brought this to Australia.

in asia market..u went from a young nice german to old-man nice german image....all in good fun.. :)

engine??G4FC,G4FG?

Whoever does the colour correction on these videos please make sure tint isn't set to green because it makes skin tones look sickly.

Türklerden kimse yok mu ? Ey ahali nerdesiniz..

Very original design from kia ...

Screen in guage cluster is so small and outdated. They should take that one from Stinger.

Looks good lie a mini CUV Sorento

Damn not bad Kia, but i'm going to save up for the new Mercedes A Class lmfao

سيارة كويسة

Thomas blue! Yay!

The times where premium cars were better equipped and looked better are simply gone!

When are you testing the new leaf? 😉

Pretty sure most of them “safety features” are EU standards now, so not really well spect when its compulsory equipment

It seems to have borrowed most of the inside from VW/Audi. Good value though.

Ford Focus is it you?
