    Kia Cerato 2019 FAQs

    What is the difference between the Hyundai i30 N Line and Kia Cerato GT?

    The Kia’s seven-year factory warranty is – and should be – a big selling point. But that’s countered by much more expensive servicing over the Hyundai. Keen driveaway pricing also works in the Kia’s favour, however. Frankly, both are great cars with lots of useable performance (they share the same engine, actually) and practical layouts.

    So, it could come down to a philosophical debate: The i30 N Line sits one rung below the hero i30 version, the N. The GT, meanwhile, is the flagship Cerato, so you don’t need to explain to the neighbours why you didn’t buy the flashest one. But for a lot of buyers, a manual transmission is the gearbox of choice in quick little hatches like these, and only the Hyundai offers a six-speed manual or a seven-speed DCT. In the Kia, it’s the DCT or nothing.

    What car should I buy?

    The Camry wins on reliability and fuel consumption, but carries the highest price; the Subaru is the least expensive but has the highest fuel consumption ad the lowest resale, while the Kia sits in the middle. The Kia is good value-for-money. If fuel consumption is your priority go for the Camry, if not go for the Kia.

    What is the best safe and cost-effective car for my kids to drive?

    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.

    Kia Cerato 2019 Interior

    The current-generation Cerato moves Kia’s interior fit and finish forward noticeably, thanks to a well-laid out interior design shown in these images. Touch points feel nice and even premium on some grades thanks to a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter, while a large floating multimedia touchscreen adorns the centre of the dashboard. Seats are comfortable and are available in a leather trim, while other features offered include dual-zone climate control, rear air vents and heated seats.

    The cabins are also almost identical in the S and Sport.
