Kia has introduced a new Cerato model at a sharper price to attract buyers from both the used and new car market.
Priced at just $25,990 + on-road costs, the new Kia Cerato SX variant stands out from the crowd as a value-packed five-door hatch.
“There isn’t anything else in the family car segment that compares with the Kia Cerato SX,” says Todd McDonald, Managing Director of Kia Motors New Zealand.
“For that price are buying one of the roomiest cars in its class – the space is often compared to that of a station wagon – and one of the most stylish. Buyers also benefit from Kia’s 5-year/100,000km new car warranty and roadside assistance program.”
The extra-long wheelbase translates into more passenger and luggage space, providing a generous 428 litres VDA in the rear – the largest boot in its class.
The new Kia Cerato SX model boasts an 8-inch touchscreen for controlling the infotainment system, four-way tilt- and telescope-adjustable steering, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and much more.
The ANCAP 5-star safety-rated features include the latest Autonomous Emergency Braking that senses pedestrians and cyclists in addition to other vehicles, along with Lane Keeping Assist, Hill Start Assist Control, Emergency Stop Signal and rear parking sensors with a rear view camera featuring dynamic guidelines.
The Cerato SX retains the 2.0-litre 4-cylinder MPI engine that delivers 112kW of power and 192Nm of torque to the front wheels through Kia’s 6-speed automatic transmission.
