2015 Kia Pro Cee'd GT Review - Inside Lane

[@eTengu]

Finally I've found review of this car with good sound quality from the interior and the actual engine noise. Good job!

[@j6kbo161]

To be fair this is one of the nicest looking hatches I have seen.

[@jonnyherd5741]

I have one of these, a 5 door GT Tech in Track Red, and I love it!

[@insidelane]

+Jonny Herd They are great cars. We are testing their new 3 cylinder engine in a few weeks.

[@diandone]

How is your average fuel consumption? I'm very tempted to buy this car but the order takes 2 months, and the thing that scares me is that I won't be able to get an average below 15l/100 km (19 mpg)- city driving, weekend trips and some fun spirited driving whenever I can.

[@OrnumCR]

diandone We get 7.5 litres per 100kms out of ours...

[@curtisball7938]

Got a black GT tech had it for a month and half and still love it to bits. To go from a 1.2 Corsa to this is awesome. It's comfortable and will pull when you want it to. Over the last 3 tanks of fuel I've averaged around 32mpg which isn't bad for it is and how I've driven it too 😊🤘🏾

[@iLouieTube]

Have any of you guys still got your kias all these years on?? 😂

[@simonshane2118]

I´m in love with this car, can´t wait till i buy it

[@Metragnome_Images]

This new GT has some very nice upgrades. The steering wheel, the look on the TFT screen, bigger brakes. The wheels however are the same as used on the Koup Turbo here in Australia and are not in the same league as the original wheels. Less "fast/sporty" look. Great review though. Love my GT Tech.

[@insidelane]

+Colin W (Metragnome) Thank you! In the UK for 2015 they have dropped the GT Tech model and now only offer one trim level with everything. It is a good car and excellent value for money.

[@Metragnome_Images]

+Inside Lane That's interesting. Wonder what they'll do here? A lot of people here in Australia believe the car is too expensive. Especially the Tech.

[@insidelane]

+Colin W (Metragnome) Hmmm, that is interesting. Not sure what the price difference is. Here it is £23,105 but it would be hard to work out the actual cost because of taxes.

[@Metragnome_Images]

+Inside Lane The GT Tech is $35,000AUD on road. Using xe.com that is about 16,200 pounds...Aussie dollar sucks lol

[@A.N.O.1412]

Very interested in this sort of car. Did Kia fit a dual mass flywheel to improve cabin refinement, do you happen to know?

[@dheeradjlachman9658]

Very Nice engine sounds!

[@Cupra28]

Yellow in the UK we can only get red,white and black! When did yellow become available?

[@insidelane]

+Cupra28 This is the new model year and I believe this colour is a new addition.

[@PhatChris221]

really nice looking car, my parents just got the standard ceed 3 and im conisdering the pro ceed gt line, still not sure to go with the 1.0l eco turbo the 1.6 turbo diesel (same as in the ceed3)

[@insidelane]

+Chris Millar It depends what you use your car for most. If it is mainly motorway then I'd suggest the diesel, but if you are mainly around town with just short trips or occasionally on a motorway the 1.0 litre is a good option. I have a 1.0 litre Pro_Cee'd arriving on 23rd November and will do a video on it.

[@PhatChris221]

+Inside Lane it'll just be general driving tbh. so probably go with the wee 1.0l. but I'll probably go with what ever one is cheaper to insure lol

[@insidelane]

+Chris Millar I did a little first drive written piece you might find helpful: insidelane.co.uk/first-drive-2015-kia-ceed/

[@insidelane]

+Chris Millar Here is the video on the 1 litre: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5fSiGx4lsl_qMk

[@apmirkin]

i want a ceed gt. not a pro ceed... just a gt crdi... i got a rio 3 64plate in graphite and loved it until a villain targeted it.

[@brojynks]

looks good, love the hatch. let me guess, not for the USA?

[@insidelane]

+Deadpool It is a great looking car. Wish I could have put more external footage in the video but our cameras decided to stop working. Unfortunately I don't think there are any plans to bring the Cee'd to America.

[@brojynks]

Inside Lane is the Forte5 the basic same as this? or is this car Fiesta sized?

[@insidelane]

+Deadpool I think they are built on the same platform, but the Forte is altered for US tastes. It is a Focus sized car. (C-Segment)

[@brojynks]

thanx.

[@tarsan894]

+Deadpool the Veloster Turbo in america has the same exact engine and turbo as this car

[@insidelane]

We have road tested the 1.0 litre Kia Cee'd: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5fSiGx4lsl_qMk

[@Beanjuice]

Really wish this was in the US.

[@insidelane]

+Beanjuice I'm sure Kia must be thinking about bringing it to America. Lots of people seem to like it.

[@Beanjuice]

I doubt it with the Veloster T and the Forte5 sx being their main focus in the US right now. I would definitely pick this over a veloster though...LOVE the interior and it just looks so much more aggressive than the VT

[@chairrules2007]

+Beanjuice I totally agree ! WTF Kia ! THe forte 5 sx is nice, but this Kia has some additional sporty touches that would seem like an obvious fit for the forte 5 sx. Why are they holding out on us in the US ?

[@panthercrawl]

Yes, I agreed with you. I didn't know that there was a car like this out from kia. I just saw it on youtube today afternoon on a racetrack. Guessing that they kept it well hidden. Oh, well.

[@ExpIns]

I have bought kia ceed GT 2014, and, damn, this 2015 GT stearing wheel is really great... Why did I do it so soon...

[@insidelane]

+Игорь Колпач Oh no! That is annoying. But your 2014 car is still good.

[@shinnyspace]

kia ceed is a great car

[@insidelane]

Totally agree!

[@hsbutoy]

Can the synthesised engine noise be turned off?

[@insidelane]

I don't think it can unfortunately.

[@91Tuneup]

The cee'd GT has a "GT-Button" on the steering wheel. (3:05 in the video). Besides the mentioned display change, it also activates the "sound enhancer". When not in "GT mode" the car is substantially quieter from the inside.

[@neonblizzard8110]

what song is this sick intro music anyone?

[@rider2878]

can you make a 0-60 please

[@insidelane]

+jimmy neutron We do 0-62mph in Europe as it is equal to 100kph

[@PlazmaBooy]

Prounderscoreceeapostrophed? But why!

[@insidelane]

+PlazmaBooy Haha! We tried to simplify it in the title. I have do idea why they decided to go for all of the punctuation in the name.

[@delboy2596]

Mini had a torque gauge and year earlier.

[@apmirkin]

looks like the result of a Megane raping a Focus

[@iiNNeX]

all looks and no go sadly :/

[@insidelane]

It doesn't try to be a hot hatch. There is a growing market for these sorts of cars.

[@WilliamStewart1]

All they'd have to do is put thier 2.0 turbo under the hood, fit a limited slip differential, suspension tuning, off the shelf Brembo brakes, and you now have a very competitive hot hatch. Like Inside Line already said, it's not what Kia is after.

[@WilliamStewart1]

+William Stewart *Inside Lane (auto correct)
