The immediate appearance of a new generation of the popular Cerato line said for a long time. But the manufacturer kept silence, heated by intrigue and forcing everyone to be lost in guesses, which will be new auto models, known and the United States as Forte, and at home in South Korea under a brief name K3. Kia Motors Corporation Guide is a novelty as a car with a sports heart and chamimatic appearance, which must like young and active people.
Exterior ninks
Presented in January 2018 Kia Cerato - a five-seater sedan, in the exterior of which is read similar to Kia Stinger. But nevertheless, a novelty has the person with individuality and attracts attention to a harmonious combination in the design of classics and modern trends.
From the preceding model, the new sedan is distinguished:

- An elongated hood and a somewhat shortened rear;
- Powerful radiator grille in recognizable style of KIA;

- Large wheels who pleased with a radically new design.
From the side of the trunk, the car looks no less effectively. LED optics consists of two blocks, which creates the effect of flowing pattern on the trunk cover. A LED strip, uniting lights in a single module, looks very stylish.
Massive rear bumper, which integrated back lights, gives the car even more solidity.

Salon
Inside the car does not look modestly, but also not catchy. There will be nothing superfluous here. Restyling brought into the car and new materials in the finish - now it is used and genuine leather, and even in the database it can be found. Everything else is performed by cloth, good plastic and aluminum.
Kia Serato 2018 dashboard is small. In the center of it - a seventhimemic multimedia screen, in which the entire main functionality of the model is located. Just below, there are several rows of buttons, but they can only control the climate installation, as well as the simplest functions. On the sides of all this there are deflectors that occupy approximately half the length of the entire tidy. The same are also at the ends of the Torpeda.
The central tunnel is wide, but not long. Pretty close to the driver is now placed handle gearbox and two more rows of buttons changing ride modes. In addition, here you can find small holes for various trifles and modest, but convenient armrest.
But the steering wheel applies another, not as on other new products KIA. He got another form and functionality. You can customize the audio system from it, respond and finish calls from the phone and activate cruise control. The instrument panel is original - completely electronic and appears only when the motor is head. There you can see the current speed, turnover, the amount of fuel, the temperature of the oil and other information that the on-board computer displays.
Quite high-quality materials are used to finish the seats. Outside it is fabric and skin, and inside the original material, which is not hard, and not soft, thanks to which even in distant and sophisticated trips about discomfort you can safely forget. There are several options for adjusting the position, heating and side support. Behind the place is not that much, but enough for sure to two people. The third problems may already arise, but if it is not very overall, they will be quite avoided. There are also some adjustments and side support.
There is no information on the luggage branch of the machine. But, if we consider that the dimensions did not change, then, most likely, the volume of the trunk also remained the same. In normal mode, this indicator is 480 liters, and with a folded rear row - under 1400 liters.
