Kia ProCeed Hatchback (2013 - 2019) verdict
One diesel, one petrol engine
The engine range is a straightforward choice between Kia’s 1.6-litre GDi petrol engine and its 1.6-litre CRDi turbodiesel. Both are fitted with a six-speed manual gearbox as standard, although a six-speed automatic transmission is available with the diesel engine if you plump for the top-level SE trim level.
We expect the diesel to be the most popular of the two engines.
The previous-generation Proceed had a good reliability record and that, added to low insurance and a frugal diesel engine, should keep running costs down.
