Up-close images of the all-new Kia cee’d 5-door hatchback reveal more details about the car’s stylish exterior!
A new set of Kia cee’d spy shots have fallen into our hands thanks to our friends from South Korea. These photos showcase the forth-coming cee’d from all angles and reveal some pretty nice details surrounding the new hatchback!
While the new cee’d is a secret no more, the interior stays hidden from view… for now.
Scheduled to debut at Geneva Auto Show in March, the all-new cee’d will first be available as a 5-door hatchback. Later in the year, Kia will also introduce a three-door pro_cee’d and cee’d wagon. The eagerly-awaited Kia pro_cee’d will, reportedly, also be available as a “hot hatch” featuring a 180+ horsepower 1.6L GDI turbo engine.
According to latest sources close to Hyundai-Kia, the 1.6L GDI turbo engine will be a bit less potent than the unit available under the hood of just recently introduced Hyundai Veloster Turbo, but will have a higher torque figure and flatter torque curve.
Expect more details about the new 2013 Kia cee’d popping up on the web soon, so stay tuned!

The front looks a lot better than in those images.
Yes, I have to agree – only this is GT done better.
I am not happy about this. I mean this is after all the styling for the Kia GT. I really thought that the front fascia would be EXCLUSIVE to that model only.
This is not good.
I wouldn’t be too worried “Fred” Styling changes as time goes on and we know we wont be seeing the GT for a little while longer. My guess would be that when the GT launches it will blow the pants off of everything “including other Kia cars”
Ummm….this is not the Kia GT styling. Who said that impropriety? This is the new world order Kia cee’d hatchback. Is this what they’re talking about when they say watch what you read on the internet? The GT is bigger, larger and possessing more class than this car. And it’s a coupe’de sedan, not a hatchback.
better than ever
Thank you Corwin!!!!!
Talk about running away with part of the information instead of reading the whole! Bryan needs to get his facts straight.
I do hope you are right Corwin cause I been waiting on K9 and that is not happening it seems. Jumping ship from Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury I want the GT to be UNIQUE and really stand on it own and not compared as or similar too. I thing when Kia is going into this direction of Luxury don’t fall into the mistake of the Genesis and Equus which looked liked a combination of Mercedes in Front and BMW in the Rear.
As they say you only get one chance to make a lasting impression.
You guys were just over-nerd-ing this view of the cee’d 5-door and doing what P.Schreyer has already done. That is, design great looking cars. Why do certain people always have to take parts of cars and talk about how they have cues from Mitsu, hindquarters from Audi….blah-blah-blah-blah. Nothing is really being stated. You’re just talking photo-chop-shop. Oh well. Have at it. Just look at one design at a time and enjoy it. They all borrow and share off of each other and about each other. Every so often a manufacturer will build a rig that is all theirs and it’s a great car. Example: the 2008 Mitsubishi EVO X and Lancer GTS. Nothing borrowed from anybody else and everything looking as sharp as a thistle. That’s what I’m talkin’ about. Ford did the same with their 1964 1/2 Mustang. Beautiful. That’s all I’m talkin’ about and that’s what I’m talkin’ about.
Was I banned or something like this? Why didn’t my comments appear? I only said that in my opinion this “Kia cee’d 2013 is the most good-looking car of its category”. And I just hope its dynamic performance surpasses Focus’ and Golf’s.
If I had funding I’d go stake out the tech center in Ann Arbor. It’s only 150 miles (3 hours) away from me.
I did mention “If I had funding….”. Right now my travel funds are dedicated to Chicago and New York autoshows. I’m glad I didn’t waste my money going to Detroit.
WOOOOW this car looks absolutely amazing!! I think the sale of VW GOLF 6 will decrease now, damn that Ceed is delicios, i have just bought the new Kia Rio, i wish i could afford the SPORTAGE OR this CEED 🙂
waiting for new ceed sedan diesel
where is here? because this car will sell at 2013
