Kia Ceed

The Kia Ceed, known as the Cee'd before 2018, is a compact C-segment car built by the South Korean maker Kia since October 2006 exclusively for the European market. It was the first Kia designed entirely in Europe, and the name takes the initials of the European Economic Community and adds ED for European Design. It is made mainly at the Kia plant in Zilina, Slovakia, and it replaced the Cerato, which had little success in Europe. It was unveiled at the Paris Motor Show on 28 September 2006, and the range later gained a station wagon, the three-door Pro Ceed, a shooting brake called the Proceed and the XCeed crossover SUV.
