This is probably the last piece we’ll be writing on the Kia Cerato before the official launch report tomorrow. As you can see from these shots that we snapped today en route to the office, the cars are already on the way to showrooms and it’s possible that if you ask an SA very nicely today with the intention to buy, you might be able to sneak a peek of the car in the storage area.
UPDATE: The Kia Cerato is now officially launched – click here for our launch report
Based on the Kia Cerato leaked brochures that we published last week, the only way you’ll be able to tell the difference between the 1.6 and 2.0 litre variants of the Kia Cerato from the exterior is the rear spoiler and the sunroof. Otherwise other specs such as the alloy wheel design look to be the same.
While we wait for the launch report tomorrow, in the meanwhile you can read our Kia Cerato review, from the drive event we attended in Dubai. A quick check for listings of the Kia Cerato on oto.my revealed some sales advisors listing the car for a ‘confirmed price’ of RM 99,888 for the 1.6 and RM 118,888 for the 2.0.
My favorite colour is the grey one at the rear of the top deck of the trailer, what’s yours?

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments focus on the pricing of the 2013 Kia Cerato, with opinions that the price is somewhat high for a Korean car, especially compared to competitors like Mazda 3, Hyundai Elantra, and Japanese models like Civic and Altis. Many suggest waiting for discounts, new model releases, or better offers, noting that resell value may be lower. Some mention the car being fully imported from Korea, which could influence the price. There is skepticism about the pricing strategy, with comparisons to other popular models and concern about affordability. Several comments express interest or support, while others are critical or indifferent, indicating a mixed overall sentiment regarding the Cerato's market positioning and value for money.
