KIAcee'd 2007 - 2009

　　The Korean car manufacturer decided to build a C-segment vehicle designed specially for Europe. The C’eed nameplate came from the European Economic Community - CEE in some places - and the ED stood for “European Design”.

　　Kia managed to guess the taste and the needs of the European consumers and came with a great design and a very practical vehicle.

　　Although a family oriented car, the C’eed looked rather compact and sporty on the inside, with the 3-spoke steering wheel and the three-dial instrument cluster. The controls were intuitively placed and could easily be used while driving.

　　The C’eed was equipped with electric front and rear windows and 2 electronically adjustable exterior mirrors.

　　The C’eed offered great room for both the front and the rear passengers. The trunk space was also a good size, and by folding the rear seats (with a 60/40 split configuration), the luggage space could be increased.

　　5 engine choices were available, with power ranging between 90 and 140 hp. The KIA’s new 1.6-liter Diesel engine was designed in Europe for the 2007 C’eed.

　　The C’eed was available with 3 trim levels: LX, EX and TX. The top of the range had part-leather seats and a full leather trim. A great feature, users could choose between 4 interior finishes: Basic, Rainbow, Classic and Sporty.
