Kia Motors Unveils new Models at 2018 Paris Motor Show
Kia Motors has revealed the new Kia ProCeed today at the 2018 Paris Motor Show. The all-new shooting brake makes its public debut alongside the new highperformance Ceed GT and ProCeed GT, as well as the Ceed GT Line. The Kia e-Niro electric crossover also makes its European premiere at the show.
Emilio Herrera, Chief Operating Officer of Kia Motors Europe, commented: “The new cars on display underline the level of ambition and design passion that defines Kia’s cars. The ProCeed offers buyers stunning and emotional design, the Ceed GT provides maximum driver engagement, and the e-Niro helps to break down the barriers to electric car ownership, making it easy, fun and reliable.”
All four models unveiled by Kia in Paris will be sold with the company’s unique 7-Year, 150,000 km warranty as standard. Kia’s warranty also covers the lithium-ion polymer battery pack in the e-Niro.
New Kia ProCeed merges stunning coupéinspired lines with tourer versatility
Shown publicly for the first time in Paris, the new Kia ProCeed merges stunning design with the space and versatility of a tourer in a fivedoor shooting brake body. The ProCeed goes on sale exclusively to European drivers at the beginning of 2019.
Carrying the name over from the secondgeneration Kia ProCeed three-door coupé, the new ProCeed has been designed, developed and engineered in Europe. A product of Kia’s European design, product development and R& D teams in Frankfurt, Germany, the ProCeed will be manufactured at the brand’s Žilina production facility in Slovakia. It will be built alongside the Kia Ceed and Ceed Sportswagon, first introduced earlier this year.
The new ProCeed encapsulates the spirit and athleticism of the second-generation Kia pro_cee’d hatch. A shooting brake by design, the ProCeed presents an alternative to the traditional three-door hatch, and marries imposing proportions with a compact footprint that hints at its outright agility. With the DNA of a coupé, the car is lower and longer than both the Ceed five-door hatchback and Sportswagon, giving it a unique raked-back silhouette unlike anything in the family car segment.
Inside the cabin, the ProCeed features the same ergonomic cabin as its Ceed compatriots.
