I feel rather like King Canute trying to hold the tide back. I thought I was the last remaining estate car fan. Happy I’m not alone anymore 👍

Great little review Matt, I had a first generation Cee'd Sportswagen and it was a really good car, it handled well for a 1.6 diesel and was my first Kia so this this really appeals to me, it's got a nice spec, subwoofers for my tunes and decent sized space for the family.

@arturseversons3444 Год назад

Mad that a 1.5 is now able to do 130mph and give 50mpg. For a "Family" type car you certainly do not need any more.

@anthonystevens8683 Год назад

I miss the Estate Cars of times now sadly mostly gone. I had a Modeo MK2 (the sharper edge version, not the facelift MK1) and it was brilliant. The only downside with any estate of the era was finding the required two post codes to park it although I found mine a doddle to park with the brilliant visibility. This Kia would certainly be a consideration if I wasn't falling to bits hence I now drive an SUV as I can get into it and out without the aid of a shovel. Many thanks for sharing as it's a big shame that estates appear to be going the way of the Dodo. RIP Volvo estates in the UK.

@terryatkinson3182 Год назад

Oddly enough the hatchback Mondeo is longer than the est.

@anthonystevens8683 Год назад

@@terryatkinson3182 I may well be wrong but the MKII hatch was 4,731 mm (186.3 in) and the estate 4,804 mm (189.1 in) but not that much in it. I certainly found the estate easier to park though. They were great cars with decent handling, equipment and a huge amount of room. Everyday classics in the day as not that many on the road now days. I miss mine even though it's been a decade since it went on to new pastures after 10 years of ownership.

I beg to differ. We had a myriad of issues with the ones my company had. 24 Sportage’ & two Xceeds. The Xceeds both started cutting out round corners for some unknown reason and every single one of the sportage’s had this issue (along with customers) where the chain seizes.

@@byronmills5952mine hit 325,000km (203,000 miles if you live in 1947). I had the previous gen Pro_Cee'd CRDI. I'd mapped it to 160bhp and a little over 350Nm and upgraded the brakes. It lived a very hard life as a commuter car. Outside of service parts, I only had to replace the clutch in 8 years. The only gripe I had is that it felt slightly sluggish at low revs, but it was a diesel after all.

The Kia auto box is a gem, I dissed autos for years but after running my Niro for the last four years I wouldn't go back to manual for my main, everyday car.

@ProPatria1919 Год назад

I can agree, after having my 2022 Niro HEV for 1,5 years. Dry dual clutch 6-speed really suits to a full hybrid engine. And I have a direct comparison with my previous car's 6-speed Aisin conventional AT. That was quite sluggish and slow-shifting, strangling the peppy 2.2-liter PSA diesel. Also, what a combo - Japanese AT and French diesel, combined in a German-built Ford.

@67tomcat Год назад

Could not agree more- CUV's are everywhere here in the U.S. and I'm so tired of them. Wish more estate's/wagon existed, but there are very few offerings. Great video, thanks.

@nervo6321 Год назад

I really like the look of this vehicle and your video has made my mind up to get one.

@morgman43 Год назад

I considered one of these when i bought my 2019 Leon Estate. Interestingly, at the time, KIA did this, plus a Ceed Estate, which had the more conventional squared off back and an even bigger boot. I ended up going for the SEAT as it was available with a 2.0 turbo which had more torque than any of the KIA 1.5 turbos, and the hotter turbo was only available on the Proceed, which has that slightly impractical swoopy back. Nice car, though, and KIA are WAY more generous with their standard equipment than VAG.

@MichaelBosley Год назад

I'm on my second Skoda Superb estate after owning a couple of crossovers. It's been great for tip runs, bicycles and DIY jobs. Seeing people at my local Wickes struggling (and failing) to fit sheets of plywood into their SUV's convinced me I'll never part with an estate for as long as they sell them.

@SportFury1966 Год назад

Hilarious that the purely digital clocks do the needle sweep on startup. But at least they're clock-like. Piano Scratch Black. I hear those pandemic roofs are really catching on. Man, that Trent Reznor made a nice lookin' station wagon.

@mattw8332 Год назад

Yes! If I needed a brand new estate car I would be considering one of these fantastic looking Kias (and maybe a Corolla or Swace).

@colinhicks4174 Год назад

This is a very nice car, a Mercedes replacement perhaps (in a manual). But at the risk of disagreeing with Mr FD this is not a compact estate, at over 4.6m long it is too big. With the demise of the Skoda Fabia Estate there are no longer any compact estates available. This is why I bought a Suzuki Vitara. 4.2m long. 1200kg curb weight, less than my R56 Mini Cooper SD. It will do, in manual form, 50mpg if driven carefully, 45 if not. And it handles nearly as well as a Suzuki Swift. Load space at 375L is not bad, plus it is flat.

@williamwales6619 Год назад

My only experience of Kia's was a mk 1 Picanto. That had all the comforts of a showground Bumper car. This is a different animal. Looks quite good and spacious and i wouldnt say no to a wee test drive. Quite impressive. Thanks for vid Later 👍

@furiousdriving Год назад

They’ve come an incredibly long way from that!

@shroomyesc Год назад

Current Picantos are actually hailed for being the most engaging and comfortable city cars, that feel much bigger than they are! Definitely come a long way. Shame they're ditching the 1.0l turbo engine in the facelift now, up till now with that engine it was a baby hot hatch.

In Europe LED lights are standard on GT-Line..... come on KIA other manufacturers are putting LED lights on vehicles as standard equipment...............

@paultasker7788 Год назад

The one that got away. I nearly got one but went for the vw golf mark 7 estate instead. The Kia engine and chassis were considered inferior. Given it was covid times not easy to test drive anything. Cabin looks cheaper but it's definitely more interesting especially the exterior styling. Wasn't this version. I was looking at 2019 cars. The new engine you've got in this one is significantly better. The golf has more room too because of the boxy shape.

Great review Matt. These are very nice looking and glad some manufacturers still make estates.
