The Kia ProCeed may place its emphasis on looks, but is otherwise very similar to the commendable Ceed and Ceed Sportswagon. Looks aside, it offers little extra incentive to opt for it over its cheaper sibling models or more practical estate car rivals.

The trim

See full equipment

There are some sensible extras with the GT-Line S to help justify its position in the ProCeed range, including a more advanced emergency brake aid that recognises pedestrians, additional seating flexibility with a 40/20/40 split rear bench, brighter LED headlights, front parking sensors and adaptive cruise control. You also get electric driver’s seat adjustment with memory settings, an upgraded stereo and a 12.3in digital instrument cluster. However, you’ll have to fork out a sizeable amount for it over the already well-specified GT-Line model.

The engine

See full engine specs

This 158bhp 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol strikes a good balance between price, running costs and performance, rarely feeling underpowered – provided you’re prepared to rev it out.
