SUV models are more fashionable than ever, especially in Spain. It’s something they know very well at KIA, where the Sportage, Stonic and Niro occupy the top positions in their sales, with very positive numbers for the brand, as it currently records a growth of about 6% and is the manufacturer with more registrations between individuals.
His model offensive now reaches the X Ceed, a car that competes in the competitive C-SUV segment, where it faces a total of 52 rivals. The struggle is important
but the Koreans They play with several factors in their favor depending on the purchase factor of the brand. its customers rate exterior design at 49%, maintenance costs at 21% and equipment at 29%.

The main novelties include numerous improvements in the exterior design, including a new sportier GT Line version. This new specification has a number of sporty touches that set it apart from the base model. A bold Tiger nose design frames the new grille, while a sporty lower air intake and
bumper side trim They add a more aggressive look to the front. Dark chrome deflectors help direct air forward to reduce drag and improve aerodynamic efficiency.
At the rear, striking hexagonal LED taillights and a body-coloured lower diffuser complete the updated and highly distinctive design. to drive
18-inch alloy wheels giving it an athletic look, while gloss black running boards, roof rails and body-coloured mirrors further enhance the active and dynamic look.

LED headlights, bumpers and grille. It also has new alloy wheels up to 18″, and a rear section in which a new design diffuser stands out.

To give an example, in the 141 hp PHEV version that we were allowed to test during the presentation (plug-in hybrid version), we managed
consumption of only 5 l/100 km, and that during our trip the battery capacity was completely exhausted. This plug-in hybrid X Ceed offers an electric range of up to 48 km, which equates to a 60 km drive in the city.
