Kia Ceed 2 1.6 CRDi EcoDynamics 5dr road test

An image of the Kia Ceed. Korean carmaker Kia could be accused of coming to the green car party a little late – with its green badge ecoDynamics arriving a couple of years after many of its rivals. The first car to be launched under the green banner is a version of their popular cee’d model. With its mighty 7 year warranty intact and start/stop engine technology appearing for the first time, can the Kia cee’d become a popular option for people looking for a frugal, small family sized car?

There’s no disputing the value of the cee’d, it under cuts its main competitors by some clear distance and we are talking several thousand pounds here, while offering a level of sophistication and driveability not found in cheaper models. It’s seven year warranty should gives the owner the peace of mind that this car will keep garage bills to a minimum over the life of the car, while its green credentials are also good enough to appeal to the greener element of the car buying public. There are a few flies in the ointment however, as residual values still aren’t that high, more down to marque snobbery than in quality – no doubt, while the model name is still a bug bare to some. If you’re looking for a frugal, family car on a budget, yet still want a quality product then the Kia cee’d ecoDynamics is pretty much the prefect car for you.
