Kia Cerato 2017 review
The cut-price and cool-looking Kia Cerato punches well above its price in the fashion stakes, which is at least partly why it's Kia's best-selling model. So is there substance to go with the style?

The 3 Touring is the top of the 2.0-litre range, with the same 114kW/250Nm and six-speed automatic and manual transmissions.
The Touring is well kitted-out with 16-inch alloy wheels, six-speaker stereo with DAB, Bluetooth and USB, dual-zone climate control, auto wipers and headlights, electronic park brake, rear parking sensors, leather seats, cruise control, gear-shift paddles (auto), sat nav, leather steering wheel, reversing camera and a space-saver spare.
For MY18 the Touring picks up keyless entry and start, where before it was just keyless start.
Mazda's 'MZD Connect' looks after the entertainment and sat nav with a 7.0-inch touchscreen and rotary-dial controlled system, but it's still missing Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The safety package includes six airbags, ABS, stability and traction controls, forward and reverse AEB, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross traffic alert.
