Performance of family hatch blossoms with diesel engine boost.
Auto Express Car Reviews
18th April 2008
Kia has planted a bigger diesel in its Cee’d. The Korean company is making the 2.0-litre CRDi oil-burner from the Pro_cee’d Sport available across its family car line-up.
The 138bhp powerplant appears in a new range-topping Sport trim on the five-door hatchback and SW estate bodystyles. And as well as the engine, the models get new 17-inch alloys, unique headlamps and tinted rear windows on the outside, plus part-leather sports seats inside.
Although it delivers more power, the 2.0-litre unit features the same fuel injection and Variable Geometry Turbocharger technology as the cur-rent 113bhp 1.6 CRDi in the Cee’d. It also complies with the latest Euro IV emissions standards. The new variants command a £1,200 premium over 1.6 models, so the Cee’d Sport starts from £15,995, with the Cee’d SW Sport priced at £16,395. Both are covered by the brand’s market-leading seven-year warranty.
