OverviewBD MY24 S Hatchback 5dr Spts Auto 6sp 2.0i Kia's Cerato small front-drive hatch/sedan competes against Mazda3/Toyota Corolla with a recently-updated range that begins with the base S models, followed by Sport and Sport+, all powered by Kia's 112kW/192Nm 2.0-litre engine with a standard, across-the-board six-speed auto transmission. The GT sedan and hatchback versions come with a punchier 1.6-litre turbo engine producing 150kW/265Nm and connected to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. The spacious Cerato will take at least four adults (with air vents in the back) in comfort and the sedan has a big 502-litre boot. It ticks all the boxes for road behaviour and functionality, while its class-leading seven-year warranty is a sure-fire sales-grabber.
