2018 Kia Ceed Station Wagon. 3 generation
Kia Ceed is a compact front-wheel drive C-class car produced by the South Korean automobile maker, Kia Motors, since 2006. In 2020, the 5-door Estate and 5-door Hatchback modifications of the 2018 third generation Kia Ceed were available on the Israeli market.
The 2018/2019 Kia Ceed 5-Door 5-Seater Station Wagon is compact in size: 4,600 mm long, 1,800 mm wide, with a wheelbase of 2,650 mm. The volume of the trunk is very impressive, varying from 625 (minimum) to 1,694 liters (maximum).
Distinctive features
The geometry of the suspension of the new Kia Ceed is completely different now, and the steering demonstrates greater sharpness, plus there are a lot of new electronic helpers and assistants, which allows the new vehicle to enjoy the second-level autonomy. The 2018 ‘third’ Ceed retained the body length and wheelbase dimensions identical to the preceding 2nd generation Kia Ceed, but at the same time the body of the new car became 20 mm wider and 23 mm lower. Manufacturers assure that the 2018/2019 Kia Ceed will become one of the most innovative vehicles of its class.
Modifications
Two engine options of the new Kia Ceed station wagon are available in Israel: a 1.4-liter turbocharged petrol engine producing 140 hp, which is complemented by a 7-speed semi-automatic transmission, and a 1.6-liter diesel engine producing 136 hp, complemented by a 6-speed manual transmission. The average fuel consumption is 5.6 and 4.2 liters per 100 km, respectively. But the maximum possible speed developed by both engines is approximately the same: 205 and 200 km/h, respectively.
