All recent 1.5 Turbo 160 hp from Hyundai Motors arrives at Kia.It is available on CEED, but it does not provide real performance gain.
First launched on the restyled Hyundai i30, the brand new four -cylinder petrol engine 1.5 T-GDI of 160 hp is quickly democratized within the Korean group.It is indeed Kia who benefits with the cousin, the Ceed.
The compact sedan thus replaces 1.4 140 hp turbo by a 1.5 160 hp turbo which ultimately does not change much in terms of performance, since still announced in 9.2 seconds on 0 to 100.Which is just decent in the compact category of this level of power, it must be said.1.4 had never been a model of sobriety against a TSI of Volkswagen.We bet that this new block still brings a little more flexibility (the torque is slightly higher than that of the 1.4), and weaker discharges, even if there is no microhybridization.
As for the 1.4, the 1.5 T-GDI is offered on most finishes, in manual or double clutch transmission depending on the finish level.The average additional cost compared to the 1.4 is € 600.
