Product Overview

Kia Proceed (chassis code CD) is a compact station wagon marketed as "shooting brake" in production from 2018. It is available with a range of inline-3 and inline-4 engines that displaced 1.0 to 1.6 liters.
Essentially, the CD Proceed is a variation of the Mk3 Kia Ceed Sportswagon (SW). Like the latter, it is powered by a range of tiny downsized engines. To save fuel, the powertrain has been built as light as possible. Thus, while the car looks great, questions remain as to its durability.

Reviewer score 49%
Reviewers from autocar have found the following***:
The 1.6-litre T-GDi engine has a bassy soundtrack with a purposeful edge. The all-independent suspension keeps tight control of moving masses at all times. Handling is balanced and precise, and if you take your foot from the accelerator at the heart of a corner, you’ll feel the car’s line and attitude both adjust, if only just a bit.

Pros
  • Comfortable to drive
  • Decent handling
Cons
  • Slow to go up the gears
  • No automatic gearbox

Reviewers from autoexpress have found the following***:
Kia is following Mercedes' lead by offering a sleek CLA Shooting Brake in tandem with its more conventional A-Class. Prices should kick off from just under £24,000 rising to just over £28,000, making it pretty good value. Aggressive front and rear bumpers with dual exhausts, a black honeycomb grille with red inserts, red brake calipers and flashes of red along the sills give the GT a really sporting look.

Pros
  • Gorgeous looks
  • Comfortable to drive
  • Good handling
Cons
  • Lacklustre engine
  • Not the most fun to drive

Reviewers from autoexpress have found the following***:
The ProCeed is only available in Kia's top three trims – a move that helps to separate it from the standard Ceed Sportswagon. Prices start from £23,835 for a GT-Line car powered by a 138bhp 1.4-litre turbo petrol. Performance doesn't quite match the car's sporty brief though; 0-62mph takes a leisurely 50 seconds.

Pros
  • Sporty styling
  • Comfortable to drive
  • Decent infotainment system
Cons
  • Slightly jiggly low-speed ride
  • No automatic gearbox

Reviewers from autoexpress have found the following***:
The ProCeed GT is a range flagship, and as you'd expect it comes loaded with safety tech. The central 8-inch touchscreen is the heart of a pretty impressive infotainment set-up. It includes a five-speaker audio system, DAB radio, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, and wireless phone charging. There's a 60:40 split rear bench as standard, and the GT gets an underfloor storage compartment and a powered tailgate.

Pros
  • Fantastic infotainment
  • Lots of standard equipment
Cons
  • Slightly sloping rear seats
  • Lack of safety tech

Reviewer score 55%
Reviewers from carmagazine have found the following***:
The Kia Proceed GT-Line aims to bring some of the showbiz shine down from the range-topping Ceed GT, which is a sort of sub-GTi warm hatch with 198bhp. With the big bumpers, deep side skirts, Kia's trademark ‘ice-cube' LED daytime running lights and 17-inch alloys, it's easy enough to get visually fooled into thinking this is a properly hot little number. On the inside it's all dark glossiness, fancy-looking seats, silver stitching and easily interpreted secondary controls. It's almost impossible to execute fast, smooth changes when it feels like you're dealing with a rolled up Wellington boot jammed into a grating.

Pros
  • Fun to drive
  • Good value for money
Cons
  • Noisy engine
  • Not the most fun to drive

Reviewers from carmagazine have found the following***:
The Proceed shares its architecture with the regular Ceed, with MacPherson struts up front, a multi-link rear axle and electric power-assisted rack and pinion steering. It's a very nice set-up, feeling meaty and responsive as it carves through Provence's mountainous B-roads. Two six-footers can sit inline with no knee rubbing on the driver's seat back, and there's sufficient headroom despite that rakish roofline.

Pros
  • Sleek looks
  • Powerful petrol engine
  • Decent infotainment system
Cons
  • Lacklustre rear-seat handling
  • Noisy in Sport mode
