Kia has revealed the first image of its all-new C-segment estate model, the cee´d ´sporty wagon´, which will be shown in public for the first time at the Mondial de L´Automobile in Paris next week, prior to its launch in mid-2007.
The 4470 mm long, 1490 mm high, sporty wagon is the second model in the new Kia cee´d family of cars. A first in the C-segment, it features a tailgate shaped like an inverted ´L´ with its hinges set back over the load area so the tailgate rises almost vertically, giving en-hanced access to the large-capacity cargo area that has additional storage below the floor.
The sporty wagon has the same 2650 mm wheelbase as the five-door hatchback cee´d that makes its world premiere in production-ready form at the Paris Motor Show and goes on sale in December 2006.
When the cee´d sporty wagon goes on sale next September, customers will be offered an extensive choice of five engines, three trim/equipment levels and 12 exterior colours.
The introduction of cee´d family (five-door, ´sporty wagon´ and three-door ´sporty hatch´) marks a major turning point in Kia´s history. They are the first-ever Kia models designed and manufactured in Europe, and will introduce a qualitative revolution for the brand.
