Find your perfect Ceed

Cars available now

The Kia Ceed is competitive in lots of areas but unlike its best rivals it fails to be outstanding in any one area. The Ford Focus handles better, the Skoda Octavia and Scala are more practical and the Volkswagen Golf is more comfortable. If you do buy a Ceed, we recommending going for the entry-level 2 trim.

Upgrade to 3 trim and you'll get dual-zone climate control, rear parking sensors, privacy glass, power-folding door mirrors, an automatically dimming rear-view mirror, rain-sensing wipers and larger alloy wheels – on top of everything that's standard on entry-level 2 trim. Worth a look, especially if you can get a good discount, but we reckon 2 trim is the pick of the range.
