I love my Kia! Such a reliable car. I service it regularly and it doesn;t let me down. The only issues I have had are with Apple car play connectivity. Other than than I am so happy!!!

Apart from buying it second new and later finding it smelling of smoke, the cerato has been great in terms of fuel efficiency and reliability. Also looks great. Kids call it the ‘shark car’ because it’s the same colour as a dark blue shark : )

Bought this car 2 weeks ago, it runs so smoothly and has an amazing interior and exterior. It's absolutely stunning. The steering is very smooth and fun to drive in. Very homely vibes. The only downside on the basic model is no reverse camera. Was made in 2016, so its expected to have a camera.

I have owned four of these and love them. Research showed best value for the money and a 7 year warranty. Very roomy in the rear for carrying lots and a very comfortable drive. SA dealership Reynella excellent, allowed me to trade in in Adelaide and pick up new vehicle in Queensland when I moved interstate. Eagers Kia Brisbane average. Car not as advertised ( they advertised it as 2018 and it turned out to be a 2017 model.) They failed to remove my name from registration in a timely manner so I received a speeding fine incurred by them two weeks after I traded in my old vehicle. Had to go to the trouble of finding a JP to prove it!!

Bought this car brand new and have had absolutely no issues with it. It does really well on premium petrol and lasts a full 2 weeks before I have to fill up again. However it chews through E10 ( which is standard for any vehicle I feel). Took it in for a first service a few weeks ago and they gave it a vacuum and a clean too. Couldn't be happier with buying this car, however will probably upgrade to another sportier version next year. Recommend this car for any one!

Beautiful to drive and economical on the highway. Fuel economy is worse than my corolla before it but not by much. Easy to clean interior and fold down armrest and cupholder in back seat. Doesn't skip a beat but definitely lacks power and needs to rev a lot to get up to speed and up hills.

Very stable and reassuring to drive. It corners well with the right balance and understeer. The suspension tuning is spot on. I have Michelin Primacy 3 ST tyres which are great and extremely quiet.

The interior is roomy and very comfortable. The wheelbase is longer than the i30 and this makes it look more sleek. The reliability has been 100%. Very happy.

Purchased January 17 purchase price $19990 auto.
Now approaching 25000 k
Zero problems zero warranty claims
Fuel consumption excellent better than my other car a Hyundai i30 diesel
Great performance low road noise compared to i30
Would recommend as top value.
Dealer service booking not good 2 weeks notice and no loan car

This car has heaps of little features that most cars don't have these days.. e.g. front sensors, android auto/apple car play, reverse camera (with upgraded AV unit pack). For the price you pay, they are good features to have. My car was recently rammed by another car from the rear. The back crumpled. I was safe, but my car is waiting to be repaired by the insurer. Now that i have a rental car (Holden astra), i miss my kia cerato features. Sports mode is also fun. The car is quite zippy and economical on fuel.

Driving is very good but not as responsive to my mazda3. The price was excellent but to achieve it I had to haggle with the salesperson. I don’t like that the basic model has no automatic window opener, finger needs to be on button continually for it to work. Also has no navigation but very happy overall. Petrol usage is very reasonable and very reliable car. Running costs are capped but not happy with the service dealer because of little space in waiting room, so I will be going to another dealer. Overall I am very happy with my KIA CERATO 6 SPD auto 5 door hatch, I recommend buying it.

I have been driving since May. So far I haven't had any problems. Compare with other similar size cars, the boot is more spacious, I put my baby's pram and still enought space for grocery bags. Also the boot is not high, good for mums with prams. And gotta love 7 year warranty!

Have had my Kia cerato 1.8 auto for just over a year with 26,000Kms on the clock.It's been a fantastic little car for the money but has developed a rough idle at times and fairly loud engine noise when cold(Perhaps Tappets/timing chain).Yet to be determined by dealer.Im happy with the way it drives,how roomy it is and the fuel economy I get(Around 7.4 mixed driving).It seams the noise is a common issue with this car?Other than the engine issues I can't fault the car for the money $17,000.The warranty appeals to me also.

I recently purchased the Kia Cerato. IT is a great little car. It drives very smoothly and has all the little extras that make it a great drive like GPS, bluetooth audio, rear parking camera.

Pros:
7 year warranty with fixed price servicing
Very smooth to drive

Cons
Dashboard takes time to boot up
GPS quite slow to boot up

I love this car, it is perfect for someone like me who is retired and needs a reliable vehicle. It is fuel efficient, quiet and easy to drive. There is plenty of leg room, both front and rear seats. The air conditioning is good. The boot is very easy to load and unload shopping, in other words it is perfect.
