Kia has revealed the first image of the new Kia cee’d, Kia’s European hatchback offering that has been so instrumental in changing the South Korean brand’s image in the eyes of the European customer. Kia Motors (UK) managing director Paul Philpott commented proudly that the cee’d is the one of the first Kias that customers have bought based on emotional reasons rather than practical. It’s not that it’s cheap, customers actually desired it! The cee’d platform also underpins the new Kia Forte sedan and coupe that will be making its way to Malaysian shores through Naza KIa. Full details on the cee’d will be revealed later this year at Frankfurt 2009, alongside two all-new Kia models.

Looks like KIA is producing more and more quality products
NICE! better than civic
I saw accord grill lining there..
i think pre facelift c'eed looks better
why this KIA car remind me of TOYOTA VIOS??
Ford Focus look alike
Kia is getting more and more stylish!!
A tinge of Honda City too.
Looking forward to what's
inside the hood too.
Kia ruined a beautifully designed car! the pre-facelift version looks a lot more better than this..
Previously rondo style grill, looks cuter. Now use new family grille…. looks a little more macho but not that attractive…
No further comment, period. I'm waiting for the full details & pics…
look nicer and much elegant, hope to see the rear….heck with accord grill, nowadays no car has their own original design anymore…
what an interesting name for a car
Kia is catching up with stylish design, moving ahead of the rest of korean mades which have funny curves and shapes.
Beside GM contract, Naza will also have this car to be CKDed in Malaysia. Good for the economy. I wonder what the name. Naza Biji? :-) Naza Ceed sound good too.

Yo dude, how do you know KIA is producing better quality cars?
I got friend of mine using the Kia Rio, 3 YO but sounds like my 9 YO wira…
Yes, Kia design is beautiful but reliability? I think better Toyota la… the price is a bit higher but reliability and quality is there.
Seems like a hybrid between Ford Focus and the H. Accord ..
It is more better car from KIA. I wonder when this Model will be Lauch by Naza Kia

it is schreyer grill la..

ehehhe
actually kia ceed have quality issues too
based on my reading in kia forum..
cheaper "import" hatchback
Cee'd = Suc cee'd !!
The C'eed has lost its sporty demenour with the long wide grill in front. Did schreyer approved this design? I clearly remmember his presentation on the Forte that stresses on everything sporty…sporty this & sporty that…
Its kinda dull and boring look. Looks too tame.
I dont like to support korea car in malaysian market, but the fact was their car are gettting better in design,,,,which turn me on on first look…
kia?
no thanks.
A kia with a soul? Hm.. Pass me the coffee please..
omg,tat kia is superb nice anyway when the kia forte reach our shore i can't wait to get one^^
Here is the link to some pictures of the updated interior of the new Kia Ceed

That looks closer to a Ford now rather than KIA.
Always new model old design, so boring.
quite nice…
Is it 1.6 or under than that???
