Kia Ceed Sportswagon At A Glance
Comfortable and easy to drive. Feels well built. Impressive bootspace of 625 litres. Excellent 1.5 turbo petrol engine. Handles tidily.
Ride can be firm on larger wheels.
Estate cars may not be as fashionable as SUVs nowadays, but a wagon still makes for a practical choice and the Kia Ceed Sportswagon is one of the best. Its relatively compact exterior hides a spacious boot and cabin, and it’s a worthy challenger to the Ford Focus Estate, stylish Peugeot 308 SW and ever-popular Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer. Well built and generous with its specification, the Kia Ceed Sportswagon is also decent to drive, although it’s best to avoid models on the largest alloy wheel options if you value a supple ride. Read on for our full Kia Ceed Sportswagon review.
Kia is a company that continues to improve with every new model. Compare this Kia Ceed Sportswagon to the first-generation Kia Cee’d and the improvements in quality, style and finish are huge. The Kia Ceed Sportswagon shows just how far the brand has come in a relatively short time.
The interior quality is really good, with lots of soft-touch materials and precise controls giving it an upmarket feel, yet there’s still that underlying sense of robustness about it. It feels like a car that’s built to last.
Being a small(ish) estate, the boot is all important here and the Kia Ceed Sportswagon has a wide and easy-to-load cargo area that’s low to the ground. With 625 litres of carrying space, it can swallow more than a Volkswagen Golf Estate.
There’s plenty of room in the rest of the car, too, with decent legroom in the back, thanks to lower seats, and a generally spacious and comfortable feeling throughout, helped by a wider body than the old model.
As you’d expect from a Kia, there’s plenty of standard kit and with no entry-level 1 model, the range starts with the 2, which has air-con, 16-inch alloys, a seven-inch touchscreen with DAB plus Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and a reversing camera.
What you may not expect is how good the Kia Ceed Sportswagon is to drive. Thanks to precise steering and little body roll, it feels very stable and accomplished in corners.
There is a downside, though, and that’s a slightly firm ride. It’s generally more than acceptable but something like a Ford Focus feels more compliant and settled at higher speeds. Road noise is noticeable too, especially from the back of the car.
However, the Kia Ceed Sportswagon still has plenty to recommend it, not least Kia’s seven-year warranty and a strong reputation for reliability and good customer service. Compared to the competition, it’s not as cheap as you may expect, but Kia often has very good finance deals available if you’re looking at leasing or a PCP.

Reviews for Kia Ceed Sportswagon's top 3 rivals
Kia Ceed Sportswagon handling and engines
- Engines range from 1.0 T-GDI to 1.6 CRDi DCT
- Readers report Real MPG to be between 40–65 mpg
Kia Ceed Sportswagon 2024: Handling and ride quality
On the surface, you’d expect the Kia Ceed Sportswagon to be comfortable at the expense of handling prowess. But strangely, the opposite is true.
It deals with corners better than you’d expect of an estate of this ilk, and while it may not have the outright grip of a Ford Focus, for the vast majority of drivers, the Kia Ceed Sportswagon will be more than capable in everyday driving.
The steering is quick and responsive, too, although perhaps lacks some of the weight of competitors. But perhaps what’s most surprising is the ride. It’s not overly firm, but it does tend to feel a little busy at times.
Go for a model on 16-inch alloys and you’ll get the most comfort. There’s also a fair bit of road noise from the rear, especially on rough motorways, but wind noise is minimal.
Kia Ceed Sportswagon 2024: Engines
The 1.0, 1.4 and 1.6-litre petrol engines have now departed the Kia Ceed Sportswagon range, as has the diesel unit. This leaves the solitary 1.5-litre turbo petrol with 158bhp attached to a six-speed manual gearbox.
It can take a moment for this engine to wake up to the fact you want to get going when your first touch of the accelerator pedal. However, after that, it makes smooth progress, and offers a decent 0-62mph dash in 8.4 seconds.
The manual gearbox has a light, easy shift, and all of the controls work with the same well intentioned ease, so the Kia Ceed Sportswagon is not a burden to drive in heavy traffic. On faster stretches, it feels capable and refined.
Kia Ceed Sportswagon 2024: Safety
Every Kia Ceed Sportswagon comes with three rear seatbelts, Isofix child seat mounts on the two outer seats, and six airbags.
The Kia Ceed Sportswagon also has high beam assist, lane follow and lane keep assistance, driver fatigue alert and automatic emergency braking.
The 3 trim upgrades include blind spot warning, rear cross traffic alert, speed limit warning and Normal and Sport driving modes.
Kia Ceed Sportswagon 2024: Towing
A maximum braked trailer towing capacity of 1000kg is quoted for the Kia Ceed Sportswagon, which limits its usefulness on this front compared to some rivals.

Kia Ceed Sportswagon 2024: Practicality
As small estates go, the Kia Ceed Sportswagon is one of the bigger ones, with 625 litres of boot space. As a comparison, the Volkswagen Golf Estate has 605 litres, while a Ford Focus Estate is considerably smaller with 575 litres.
It’s not just the size that’s useful either. The opening is usefully wide and the low load lip means lugging heavy items in isn’t backbreaking.
All models get an underfloor box to secure or hide smaller items, as well as a tonneau cover and a bag hook to ensure your shopping won’t roll around the boot floor.
The rear seats fold down – almost flat – to create a usefully big load area, too, while 3 trim models get handles in the boot that let you fold down the seats.
There’s decent space in the back with better headroom and legroom than the previous model, helped by the lower-positioned rear seats, although it’s not quite as generous as in a Skoda Octavia Estate.
The front seats are comfortable, with 3 models getting electrically adjustable lumbar support. The driving position is good, too, with lots of adjustment in the seat and steering column.
Kia Ceed Sportswagon 2024: Quality and finish
The quality of the Kia Ceed Sportswagon really impresses. There’s lots of soft-touch materials and it’s all well finished, with a feeling that it’s a car designed to last.
Standard 2 models are a little drab to look at, but go up the range and you get more visually appealing piano black trim. All models feature a leather steering wheel and gearlever, too.
Kia Ceed Sportswagon 2024: Infotainment
The Kia Ceed Sportswagon gets a clear eight-inch touchscreen in the centre of the dash as standard in the 2 trim, which comes with a reversing camera along with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
It’s a system that is very easy to use, and one of the best we’ve come across in terms of clarity. If you go for a 3 model or above, you get a larger 10.25-inch screen that includes satellite navigation.
Kia Ceed Sportswagon value for money
Kia Ceed Sportswagon 2024: Prices
The Kia Ceed Sportswagon line-up has been cut down to a mere two versions, in 2 and 3 trims.
They both use the same 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine with a six-speed manual gearbox, so the choice comes down to whether you want the cheaper 2, which costs from a little more than £23,000, or the pricier 3 at a shade under £27,000.
Used Kia Ceed Sportswagons start from around £12,500 for a four-year-old model with average mileage. That gets you into the old 1.0-litre petrol model, but if you want the larger, discontinued 1.4 petrol you’ll need to spend from £15,500.
Kia Ceed Sportswagon 2024: Running Costs
The seven-year warranty is a big attraction for many buyers, whether looking at a new or used version of the Kia Ceed Sportswagon.
On top of this, the Kia Ceed Sportswagon is reliable and well made, plus servicing isn’t wallet-bruising at Kia dealers. The petrol engines need a service every 10,000 miles, while the diesels require a service halt at 20,000-mile intervals.
With the current 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine, it emits between 127 and 129g/km of carbon dioxide depending on trim level, so both require road tax of £210 at the time of writing.
Fuel economy comes in at 50.4mpg for the 2 trim, while the 3, on its larger wheels, records a combined average of 48.7mpg.
Insuring a Kia Ceed Sportswagon is equally easy on the finances, as the range sits between groups 14 and 15.

Go for the Kia Ceed Sportswagon 2 trim and you get 16-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlight control and roof rails.
Inside, the 2 has black cloth upholstery, manual driver’s seat height adjustment, electric windows all round, cruise control, air-conditioning, and a 4.2-inch dash display cluster.
Move up to the Kia Ceed Sportswagon 3 and you enjoy 17-inch alloy wheels, rear privacy glass, rain-sensing wipers and heated door mirrors.
You also get man-made leather for some upholstery, passenger seat height adjustment, heated front seats and steering wheel, and an electronic parking brake.
The previously available Kia Ceed Sportswagon GT-Line and GT-Line S came with a sportier look and some additional equipment, as well as larger alloy wheels that could upset the ride of the car.

March 2018
Kia Ceed Sportswagon makes debut
Like its predecessors, the new model has been designed, developed and engineered in Frankfurt by Kia’s European design, product development and R&D teams. It will continue to be manufactured in Žilina, Slovakia, on the same production line as the new Ceed five-door hatchback, and the Kia Sportage and Kia Venga.
From launch, the Ceed Sportswagon will be available in a choice of 11 paint finishes. A selection of wheels and designs are available, with buyers able to choose from 15-inch steel wheels, 16-inch steel or aluminium alloy wheels, and 17-inch two-tone diamond cut aluminium alloy wheels.
Inside the cabin, the Ceed Sportswagon is more ergonomic than ever, and with higher-quality materials used throughout. The cabin architecture from the most recent Kia vehicles has been adapted for the new Ceed family, with the dashboard laid out horizontally for a more sculptural, seamless and slimline appearance. This design also creates greater space and a sense of openness for the front passenger, allowing more space in the footwell and a clearer view ahead.
The Ceed Sportswagon is also available with a panoramic sunroof, flooding the cabin in light during the day and giving passengers a clear view of the night sky after sundown.
Its wheelbase remains the same at 2650mm, with the front overhang shortened by 20mm (to 880mm). However, the rear overhang is extended by 115mm (now 1070mm) – making the new Sportswagon 95mm longer (now 4600mm) than its predecessor to create significantly more cargo space. Its wider dimensions and cab-rearward silhouette create a more assertive and sporty stance, for a more confident presence on the road.
The wider body creates greater shoulder room for rear passengers while a 15mm-lower seating position in the rear creates more knee and leg room for passengers in the second row. Despite the lower roofline, the platform and lowered front seating position ensure 987mm of front-row headroom, similar to its predecessor. The lower rear bench also ensures similar levels of headroom for rear passengers.
The Ceed Sportswagon also boasts significantly higher cargo capacity than ever before. The boot is 72 litres (14%) larger than the outgoing model, expanding to 600 litres in capacity – larger than most D-segment tourers. The boot lip is also substantially lower – the lower lift-over height compared to the outgoing Ceed makes it easier to load heavier items into the boot.
The split-fold rear seats are fitted in a 40:20:40 configuration and can be folded remotely with a single touch from a lever just inside the tailgate. With the seats folded, the boot floor is completely flat. Every Ceed Sportswagon features an underfloor box to secure or hide smaller items, as well as a tonneau cover and a bag hook to prevent groceries and other items rolling around the load bay. Outside the car, integrated roof rails are also fitted as standard.
Customers can also specify a Smart Power Tailgate, which opens automatically when it detects the Ceed’s smart key in close proximity to the tailgate, for occasions when users’ hands are full with heavy cargo. A safety barrier net – between the cabin and the boot – is also available, as well as a net to secure small items, and a luggage floor rail system.
The Sportswagon’s rear suspension has been subtly tuned to accommodate the longer rear overhang of the boot, and the potential for larger, heavier luggage loads than the five-door hatchback.
Petrol options include Kia’s popular 1.0-litre T-GDi (Turbocharged Gasoline Direct injection) engine, producing 120ps, as well as a new 1.4-litre T-GDi power unit. Replacing the earlier 1.6-litre GDI engine, the new ‘Kappa’ 1.4-litre T-GDi engine produces 140ps, 4% more than its predecessor despite its lower displacement.
The engine’s turbocharger ensures a wider torque band than the earlier 1.6-litre engine, making it more responsive in a wider range of driving conditions – while also reducing emissions. Both T-GDi engines are fitted with a gasoline particulate filter to further reduce tailpipe emissions, ensuring the Ceed Sportswagon goes beyond the requirements of the Euro 6d TEMP standard. A 100PS 1.4-litre MPi (multi-point injection) engine will also be available.
Every engine will be paired with a six-speed manual transmission, while the new 1.4-litre T-GDi and 1.6-litre CRDi engines will also be available with Kia’s seven-speed double-clutch transmission.
A heated windshield will be available on some models – with nearly-imperceptible wires to gently heat the glass to make the new Ceed Sportswagon easier to live. The first time this technology has featured in a Kia, it melts away frost, ice and windscreen mist at the push of a button. A wireless smartphone charger, heated and ventilated front seats, and heated rear seats are also available.

Kia Ceed Sportswagon PHEV now on sale
The Plug-in Hybrid edition of the Ceed Sportswagon is designed to sit at the top of the estate car range, with a generous specification and long list of standard equipment. Equipped with 17-inch alloy wheels and combined with a closed ‘tiger-nose’ grille, which aid air flow and deliver a sportier overall appearance.
All of the exterior lights feature LED technology, including bi-function LED headlights, LED daytime running lights and LEDs for the taillight clusters and high-mounted brake lights. Automatic headlight control, rain sensing front wipers and a front wiper de-icer all combine to assist the driver during inclement weather conditions. Roof rails provide a practical touch, while the stylish design is reinforced by fitment of privacy glass to the rear windows and tailgate.
Inside, the level ‘3’ model features black cloth seat trim and faux leather bolsters, in addition to a leather trimmed steering wheel and gearshift, while a satin chrome finish is applied to the fascia trim and interior door handles, delivering an upmarket ambience. Dual automatic air conditioning, cruise control and speed limiter, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror, drive mode select and an engine start/stop button with Smart Entry system completes the car’s interior attributes.
Ceed Sportswagon PHEV owners have access to a new 10.25-inch touchscreen with satellite navigation system, European mapping and a Traffic Messaging Channel. These are linked to a reversing camera integrated with the navigation screen. It also features Kia Connected Services featuring TomTom® Live. The infotainment system includes DAB radio with MP3 compatability and Kia’s new UVO CONNECT telematics system. UVO CONNECT puts a raft of information at owners’ fingertips, including live traffic, weather, and parking availability. The infotainment system allows smartphone users access to both Android AutoTM and Apple CarPlayTM, and it is Bluetooth® multi connection-enabled, allowing occupants to connect two mobile devices at once for hands-free phone calls and music streaming.
Safety equipment includes six airbags (front, side and curtain with front passenger cut-off switch), Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) with city and pedestrian detection, Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), Driver Attention Warning (DAW), High-Beam Assist (HBA) and Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC).
In EV mode, the Ceed Sporstwagon Plug-in Hybrid has the ability to travel up to 37 miles using a 3.3kW AC charger, the battery pack can be replenished to 100 per cent in just 2 hours and 15 minutes.
The new Ceed Sportswagon ‘3’ Plug-in Hybrid is available to order now from Kia showrooms, with the first vehicles arriving in the UK in April 2020.
September 2019
Kia Ceed Sportswagon Plug-in Hybrid announced
Combines an 8.9kWh lithium-polymer battery pack, a 44.5kW electric motor, and an efficient 1.6-litre ‘Kappa’ four-cylinder petrol engine. The powertrain’s total power and torque output is 141PS and 265Nm, enabling the Ceed Sportswagon to accelerate to 62mph in 10.8 seconds.
The powertrain is paired with a six-speed double-clutch transmission (6DCT), allowing drivers to shift gear for themselves, ensuring a more enjoyable drive than other hybrid vehicles equipped with electronic continuously-variable transmissions (e-CVT), says Kia.
Standard regenerative braking technology allows the new Plug-in Hybrid models to harvest kinetic energy and recharge their battery packs while coasting or braking, further enhanging the overall efficiency of the powertrain.
Kia is targeting an all-electric range of around 37 miles, enabling drivers to complete the majority of daily drives and short commutes on electric power alone. CO 2 emissions for the new Plug-in Hybrid variant are pending homologation and will be revealed prior to start-of-sales.
The Ceed Sportswagon Plug-in Hybrid is equipped with Kia’s new Virtual Engine Sound System, an audible warning system which activates in electric-only mode at low speeds or when reversing. The system generates virtual sound levels of up to 59 dBA to safely notify pedestrians of the car’s presence.
It has a new closed ‘tiger-nose’ grille at the front of the car to aid aerodynamic efficiency, along with distinct ‘eco plug-in’ exterior badges. The charging port is integrated into the left front wing. Equipped as standard with 16-inch aluminium alloy wheels, the Plug-in Hybrid gets its own unique wheel design, and optional 17-inch wheels are available. The Ceed Sportswagon is specially fitted with bumpers from the Ceed Sportswagon GT-Line models, aiding air flow and providing a sportier overall appearance.
The Sportswagon Plug-in Hybrid is equipped with a charging indicator, a visual aid to tell owners that their car is charging or when the battery is fully-charged. Its location on top of the dashboard means drivers can instantly ascertain the car’s state of charge at a glance from outside the car (for instance, when it is parked on their driveway at home and the owner hasn’t left the house yet).
Kia’s 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment is fitted as standard, or an optional 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment and navigation system with Kia’s UVO Connect telematics. Unique to the new Plug-in Hybrid variants, the systems incorporate new functionality to help owners locate available charging points in their vicinity, or en route to their navigation destination. The screens can also show relevant information relating to the powertrain, displaying remaining charge levels in the battery and energy usage graphics. Furthermore, owners can use the touchscreen system to schedule when their vehicle should charge when plugged in at home, enabling owners to take advantage of cheaper off-peak energy tariffs. Both infotainment systems offer Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard, while the optional 10.25-inch touchscreen navigation system features Bluetooth multi-connection, enabling occupants to connect two mobile devices at once.
The instrument cluster also features unique visuals for the Plug-in Hybrid powertrain, displaying remaining charge levels, anticipated electric-only range and the flow of energy between the battery pack, engine and electric motor. Available as an option, Kia’s new fully-digital 12.3-inch ‘Supervision’ instrument cluster is designed to deliver information as clearly as possible with a range of unique graphics displays. The high-resolution 1920x720-pixel Supervision display replaces conventional speedometer and tachometer dials currently found in the brand’s passenger cars with a single, seamless display.
The ‘Driver Only’ heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system – activated with a new button on the dashboard – instantly deactivates airflow to all cabin vents except those nearest the driver. This is designed to reduce the draw on battery energy from the ventilation system, while still keeping the driver at their preferred temperature. Unlike conventional ventilation systems, Kia’s ‘Driver Only’ system doesn’t simply restrict airflow to certain vents, rerouting it elsewhere; instead, it switches off the fans themselves, reducing energy use at source.
The Ceed model line-up was engineered from the start to accommodate new hybrid powertrains. This means that the adoption of a Plug-in Hybrid powertrain in the Ceed Sportswagon has had a minimal impact on packaging, with the structure adapted from the start to contain the powertrain’s battery pack.
The 8.9 kWh battery pack is located alongside the 37-litre fuel tank beneath the rear bench, unlike many other plug-in hybrid vehicles, in which the battery pack takes up valuable cargo space. As a Plug-in Hybrid, the Ceed Sportswagon – the most practical iteration of the Ceed range – provides 437 litres of luggage space, and up to 1,506 litres with the 40:20:40 split-fold rear seats folded down.
The Ceed Sportswagon Plug-in Hybrid will be available with an optional Towing Pack for towing braked loads – a rarity among cars in the hybrid class.
