For Thanks to the stop-start system, this version averages over 67mpg and emits just 110g/km of CO2, making it attractive to company accountants.

Against The real benefits in economy come only in town. Plus, for the same price, you can get a more powerful diesel Procee'd, which is almost as economical and pretty much as well equipped.

This version may be of interest to company buyers, but private buyers will probably be better off with a more mainstream model.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

Effectively, the Kia Procee'd is the three-door version of the five-door Cee'd – sharper to look at and to drive, but a little less roomy and not as practical; the ride can be a little on the firm side for some tastes, too.

The mainstream range starts with a 1.4-litre petrol engine that's available only with the most basic trim. It's our favourite, too, because it's impressivelt flexible for a small engine. The rest of the range, however, uses a 1.6-litre engine, either a petrol unit or a diesel that comes with two power outputs. For us, the more powerful of these two CRDi diesels is the pick of the bunch.

Stick to 2 trim, as it strikes the best balance between cost, kit and performance. The seven-year warranty is thoroughly attractive, but for it to remain valid, the car has to undergo an annual inspection - and you may well have to pay for that. Euro NCAP haven't tested the Procee'd as such, but the Cee'd scored a maximum five-star rating, which is reassuring.
