The 2018 Kia Cerato range of configurations is currently priced from $7,499.
Our most recent review of the 2018 Kia Cerato resulted in a score of 7.5 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Content producer James Lisle had this to say at the time: The brand-new Cerato dials up the attitude, offers plenty of space and safety, and improves on the previous model’s flaws. It also brings along big-car feel – a welcome focal point to bring to this class.

The 2018 Kia Cerato carries a braked towing capacity of up to 1200 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
The Kia Cerato is also known as Kia Forte in markets outside Australia.
The Kia Cerato 2018 prices range from $10,010 for the basic trim level Hatchback S to $24,420 for the top of the range Sedan GT (turbo).
All Kias sold in Australia and built after 1996 can use E10 fuel. But your car will be just as happy on standard ULP with its 91 RON octane rating.
You won't notice any difference between the two fuels apart from perhaps a slightly higher fuel consumption when using the E10. That's because the ethanol content of the fuel has less energy in it than normal petrol. But there's really not much in it and the extra E10 you'll use will be offset by the cheaper per-litre cost compared with ULP.
The fact that you've used E10 will not alter the retained value or desirability to of your car to a potential buyer one bit.

The best approach is to buy a car from a well-respected brand, and stick with an Asian brand such as Toyota, Mazda, Hyundai or Kia rather than an European one. Models to consider would be a Toyota Corolla, Mazda3, Hyundai i30 or Kia Cerato.
