Jonny Herd Good choice! We found most of the techy stuff to be pretty intuitive, especially in comparison to some of the systems out there, so I'm sure you'll get the hang of it. Make sure you come back and tell us how you get on.

Sat in a demo model of this car today, on a 16 plate. Very nice interior indeed and sounds great. It seems to be a well built GT that would be a good distance car with its refinement. I am not a fan of sports car that are all noise and hard ride. No good for everyday use, cars like that. This Kia seems very good.

Wow. Kia North America really dropped the ball on not bringing this over instead opting to redesign it as the Forte sedan and Forte 5 hatchback. I myself have the Forte 5 with this car's engine. While very fun to drive I can't help but feel cheated just a little that Kia did not bring this design over. The cabin appointments, upholstery and exterior subtle differences makes this Cee'd GT so, so much more appealing.

I wonder did Car Manufacturers abandoned Hydrolyic Steering for good ? .I think that might explain the lack of feedback I get from driving current day cars,Especially after driving my Peugeot 206 .

@TestDrivenUK 9 жыл бұрын

Jaroslav Roytapel Manufacturers are chasing lower emissions and improved efficiency. With electric power steering assistance the motor can be switched off at higher speeds, reducing the load on the engine, whereas conventional hydraulic power steering systems are driven all the time. Some manufacturers quote a significant economy improvement as the result of the switch to electric systems, but as you mention, the drawback is a loss of some steering feel. That said, some of the new systems coming through are getting quite good - the new Jaguar system, for instance.

Very nice review about the very nice car. Although, watching this review made me feel kinda sad. Because this particular Ceed model is both directed and designed by the KIA's european division as the competitor for Golf or Focus, it actually isn't being sold in Korean markets. All we have here in Korea is a 2.0 liter GDI sedan/sportback with a merely 110 hp. It doesn't come with such premium interiors and stylish exterior as shown in your video. Sad, isn't it? Still, I enjoyed watching your review :p

@TestDrivenUK 9 жыл бұрын

Michael Park I'm glad you enjoyed the video. From memory, I believe the GT models were engineered in Europe rather than Korea, and were tailored for European tastes as a result. Perhaps if enough people ask them, Kia might consider bringing them to other markets. Thanks for watching!

Kusqen All things considered it's a great car for the money. Straight line performance isn't exactly overwhelming, although it is still quite quick. It will keep up with a fiesta ST. Torque delivery is very good so you don't have to rev it a lot to get it going. It's reasonably refined even at higher speeds. Grips the road well. It's practical. I've had no reliability issues at all after doing 22k miles in 2.5 years.

It is a good looking car with enough power. As is the case when compared to European cars (which I'm getting sick of) Kia offer alot of kit whereas vw has to be optioned up to compete with equipment levels. I am not saying that it is better than a vw but it does offer alot for the money.

i guess the fabia corresponds to the kia rio and the skoda rapid and vw golf correspond to the C'eed so that's not a quite fair comparisson you made which doesnt mean you're right about the spaciousness and your regret however

What angers me the most Is that the United States never gets the better version of what ever car is offered by a manufacturer! Am sick and f.ing tired of this bias bullshit . If kia would have been smart and wanted people to get a better imagine of them here is the usa. They would have introduced this hot hatchback as the forte instead of the bland forte we have. Are they that ignorant that they don't see what is right in front of their eyes? Not only is this better than any vw hatchback or Honda hatchback but better looking than any audi hatchback. What is wrong with kia. Is that they don't have smart people running their company. Dam it wake the F up already. Now with the stinger gt debuting. Why not just make one model and price it at 35,000 for the base and 43,000 for the high end all options. For goodness sake please get an emblem that will represent your brand name. Like the H in hyundai or the TY in Toyota or the L in lexus. Kia already drop the ball by not bringing this hot hatch to America. DON'T DROP THE BALL AGAIN!
