The second generation Kia Cee’d SportsWagon debuted at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show and it is said to be more sophisticated, efficient, refined, better equipped and with a more engaging driving experience than the first generation.
It is designed for those who want a stylish and capacious estate car with the smallest possible footprint. Having only 4.5 meters in length, the new SportsWagon is more compact than it’s major European rivals, but still offers greater luggage capacity than the majority of the competition. Boot-space features 528 liters with the seats upright and 1942 liters with the seats folded. To ease up luggage loading and unloading, the boot floor is flush with the tailgate opening, and when folding the seats, a complete flat load deck is obtained. At the interior, soft-touch surfaces, high quality materials, lidded storage areas, tactile door grab handles and precise panel gaps are combined to give the car a solid, mature feel. Technically, the 2013 Kia Cee’d SportsWagon provides better steering response, it is more stiffer, 10 mm lower and it has more grip than the outgoing SW.

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.

The Sport Wagon was a variant of the small family car. The spacious car offered a inverted L-shape with its hinges set back over the cargo area - the tailgate rises almost vertically and facilitated easy access to the spacious load area.



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.
