About KIA CEED

The Kia Ceed (formerly known as Cee’d) is a C-segment car manufactured by the South Korean marque Kia Motors. It succeeds the Kia Spectra and Kia Cerato and is manufactured exclusively for the European market. In fact, Kia named it with the acronym Communauté économique européenne (“European Economic Community”) in mind. The final “d” with apostrophe refers to the word “Design“, although since 2018 the apostrophe was removed to make the brand simpler. In addition to being sold solely on the European market, the Ceed is also manufactured entirely in Europe, specifically at the Žilina plant in Slovakia.

The first version of the “Cee’d” was presented at the 2006 Paris Motor Show. A year later came the family version (Station Wagon). Since then, the Kia Ceed has created a whole family segment within the Korean brand.

The Kia Ceed is sold in multiple body styles, such as 3- and 5-door Hatchback (Ceed), Family (SW), Shooting Brake (Proceed) and Crossover SUV (XCeed). There are 3 generations of the Kia Ceed to date. Some of alternative cars would be the Hyundai i30, Ford Focus, Opel Astra, Citroen C4, Seat Leon and Renault Megane among others.
