New Kia Seed 2019 model year wants to become the leader of the segment C - in this he should be helped by a wealthy technical equipment and modern, pleasing appearance. But is it enough to overtake competitors?
On the page all the information about the new body of the Kia Sid 2019 configuration and prices, photos, specifications, video test drive and owner reviews.
Kia Ceed 2019 is significantly different from its predecessors. Presented in five different trim levels. And if the original versions of Classic and Comfort have a minimum number of useful options, then the more expensive Luxe, Prestige and Premium can offer the driver a lot of interesting things.
The price has increased somewhat compared to its predecessor, but still does not frighten. If the predecessor in the database cost 860 thousand, then the new one is almost 100 thousand more. For the top model with a robotic transmission, you will have to pay 1,460,000. And even this is not bad - there are prerequisites for the Kia Sid 2019 to become one of the best-selling in the class.
Exterior
The new Ceed looks stylish and different from previous models more aggressive design. volumetric air intake front bumper, a large-mesh radiator grille, slanted headlights and narrowed rear ones, a spoiler - all this looks very stylish.
Sid's dimensions are quite typical for this class - the length of the five-door hatchback is 4310 mm, it is based on the K2 platform. A separate highlight of the design is a convex hood, which smoothly passes into the front fenders. 
New Kia body The 2019 LED was made lighter and tougher, half made of high-strength steels. It is also pleasant that there are more galvanized surfaces - now they are 80 percent of the total.
Interior
Design Kia interior Seed 2019 is stylish and thoughtful. There is no variety of finishing materials here, there are no special details that the eye could catch on, either. But despite this - everything is thought out and of high quality. The dashboard has a neutral warm backlight. Analog scales are located on it - all the numbers are large, clear, it is easy to read the data.
The on-board computer is concise and informative, but monochrome - which looks a little strange on a modern car.
The driver was well taken care of - his seat has side support rollers. However, there is also a drawback - a flat lumbar zone, which will cause negative sensations in people who have problems with the spine.
The rear sofa of the 2019 Kia Sid is quite wide - three people of a standard build will fit here. But there are also disadvantages - there is not much legroom, even with a height of 180 cm, you will rest your knees on the back of the front seat. 
From positive aspects note the reclining center armrest. The doors swing open wide, the thresholds do not interfere with getting out of the car. The floor is hard double-leaf - if desired, the level can be changed by changing its height.
Technical filling
The equipment turned out to be quite rich, the Kia Sid of the 2019 model year has options such as:
- road marking monitoring system,
- keyless access to the salon,
- light sensor,
- rearview camera,
- electrically heated rear and front seats,
- JBL premium audio system
- front seat ventilation system,
- multifunctional steering wheel,
- stability control system,
- dual zone climate control,
- adaptive cruise control.
As for engines for Russia, we have three options available. There remains a very popular 128-horsepower 1.6-liter engine, working together with a six-speed automatic transmission. The classic layout of this motor is also preserved with mechanical box gears.
But the most interesting option 2019 Kia Ceed - 140 hp turbo engine with., which is equipped robotic gearbox 7DCT. This interesting combination will allow you to accelerate faster and save on fuel as much as possible - the car will spend only 6.1 liters per 100 km. Although there are many questions about the operation of the variator.
Kia's handling high level- even on a mountain serpentine you will feel comfortable. The steering wheel is very sensitive, rolls on corners are negligible. The chassis pleases with high stability - both in a straight line and in an arc. The tracking system helps - it informs you when you hit the markings by vibration of the steering wheel, but if active assistance is turned on, it also slightly taxis.
Kia Sid 2019 is also pleased with the increased energy intensity - you can safely drive along a bumpy road without jolts. The creators tried to adapt the car to Russian realities- the clearance was increased, in fact it is 140 mm.
A positive impression is made not only by the suspension, but by the whole machine as a whole. It perfectly balances comfort and practicality, so the Koreans did not fail, counting on the young audience of Kia Sid 2019 from 25 to 35 years old.
