Kia XCeed: Is this the best Ceed yet?

The Kia XCeed is far more than a crossover version of the standard Ceed. In fact, with a larger interior and all-new bodywork, it has the appearance of a completely different car. Rebecca Jackson puts a First Edition model to the test to see how it fares.

It kind of looks like a first gen Mercedes GLA, I love it

LOVE THIS CAR especially in this trim

[@koolcoolw]

Such a lovely voice you were made for this. Very good detail. Thanks

[@YouTubenonesense]

I have waited the moment when Ford is mentioned again. No review without selling Ford!

[@diavarezable]

That was a very pleasant review to watch Wonderful flow of narration, nice voice and the delivery wasn't as hectic as in other channels. And if I may say so, a very tastefully dressed presenter.

Kia are really doing great things nowadays...

[@kerrywillner5626]

Thank you for giving the actual mpg on your test drive. This i feel, is just as important to the modern driver as performance. I only wish more road testers would give these facts.

[@ant647448336]

Definitely. I'm tempted to go to my local KIA dealer and pick the 1.4T auto up, as they're really well priced. I've got a 2016 Ceed JD 1.6GDI.

It's a great looking car with good spec , only one USB though. Really did consider this but have just ordered an Ateca FR sport , extra space better AID and sportier drive. Otherwise great review totally agree with you , it's a competitive package.

[@Marre480]

Kia cars is becoming what VWs used to be in Europe. A solid and practical vehicle, confident on the road that does everything right. Hopefully will Kia bring some mid-size sedan to Europe.

[@kevincaldwell4707]

[@MrChilidogdk]

It’s not on my shorlist. I have already ordered a Kia Xceed 1,4 T-GDI.

That is a very good introduction. I will upgrade my Kia to this one because of your recommendation and your nice voice and lovely accent

[@davidpollard4051]

Shows how things have changed when the first thing Rebecca comments on when she sits in the driver's seat is the touchscreen system. Is this the main priority for drivers these days ?

[@MrAlanfalk73]

Remind me again how long is the warrenty on a Ford ?!

[@bipinmistry3590]

Stunning Looks, car’s not bad either,😜

[@shanjanusman9974]

It's yucky in my opinion. Also it's not a proper 4X4. If you want a proper one buy something like a Land Rover Discovery or a pickup like a Toyota Hilux. It is ugly and another stupid jumped up hatchback.

[@alexskeggs1344]

good looking car, interested in the hybrid version, but 0-60 in 10 sec, just a non starter, I don't want a supercar but need some punch and this just doesn't see to have it, other wise a good looking and stylish offering.

[@tonymccusker501]

It's exceedingly good

[@UltraJaff]

It looks like a coupe, it’s cool!

[@oopscanada]

Wow; nice!

[@craigchapman6613]

Had a test drive yesterday in the Xceed 3 Plug-In. Drives very well, great spec, comfortable, but not quite as smooth as the Niro 2 I've had for 3 years. It has the Ceed chassis, not the specific hybrid Niro chassis, the drive is a little harder on the road. The dashboard feels higher up than the Niro but is certainly a smarter design than the Niro. I'll be having one for my next company car because for all this spec, heated seat and a lovely electronic lumber sport, I'll only be paying £61/month company car tax compared to (eg) £140 for a Honda HRV, £188 for a BMW 2 series or £128 for the Niro 3

I'm going to test drive next week hopefully it has a bit more power as I'm coming from a 2.0tdi seat Leon with 180bhp lol but like all the bells and whistles you get with Kia for the money plus if you get one nearly new they are cheap as chips 😎

[@Glandorf570]

Rebecca, I could watch and listening to you reading the telephone book! Such a beautiful lady ☺️ Oh yeah, and the car is nice.

[@tommygolding7245]

Had a Mercedes (badge snobbery had nothing but problems). Got a Kia x credit first edition. I’ve also had an Audi A3. Over priced and basic. This Kia is a lot more car full of extras as standard. And nicer to drive give me the Kia any day.

[@Lotus.F]

The problem with Kia is they make sporty good looking cars but always under power, what's the point? They would attract more customers otherwise, to me that's a fail plus £29,000 for this trim is not exactly cheap either.

[@ssdivizion]

I think this is better from VW T-Roc in terms of interior quality and design,also this KIA is cheaper,that's a lot arguments on KIA's side!

[@tonycheetham3024]

[@prisecarusylviu9868]

What is so nice to drive a Ford focus active ?.... Really?

She's a bit too strict..... i don't see problems with the ambiance and BMW + Mercedes also have subpremium plastic in their cars, some of which even WORSE than the Kias. Only Audi offers premium interior material quality

too much glossy black trim inside, even though not as much as in more expensive audi or mercedes models for example.... i love central stack with real buttons, overal styling, but it needs awd...

£30k for a car that’s anything other than a premium brand makes no sense.

Altough buying a car new isn't really what anyone should be doing. Or if you like to lose 5k just by driving out of the dealership. And another 5k with first 10k miles.

@swansea007791 It's not about badge snobbery, it's about value retention.

So people buy their fancy badged and less reliable German car and after 3 years it's depreciated pretty much the same and has no warranty left, whereas the Kia still has 4 years

@@Bigbaldybear On average, a BMW loses 35% in year 3. A Kia loses 50%.
