A sedan that promises the same comfort for a much more affordable price. Could the 1.6 Kia ​​Cerato 2014 be the smart choice that Brazilians haven't discovered yet?

Have you ever thought about exchanging your Civic or Corolla for something more economical and that doesn't compromise on comfort? The 1.6 Kia ​​Cerato 2014 could be the car you never knew you needed. With a price difference of almost R$15.000 compared to its most famous competitors, it delivers much more than it appears, making it a real bargain in the used car market. Let us show you why!

What makes the 1.6 Kia ​​Cerato 2014 a good choice?

Although the Kia Cerato 1.6 2014 not be the first car that comes to mind when we talk about sedans medium, he has some cards up his sleeve. With a 1.6 16-valve engine, the same as the popular HB20, it manages to combine the best of both worlds: the comfort of a sedan with the economy of a compact car. This makes the model's cost-benefit stand out, especially in times of high fuel prices.

For those who want practicality in their daily lives, it is ideal. Its engine runs smoothly, making it great for both urban use and travel. And in terms of consumption, it delivers interesting numbers: around 10 km/l in the city and an impressive 15 to 17 km/l on the highway., depending on the driver's foot.

The 421-liter trunk is also sufficient

With dimensions of 4,56 meters in length and 1,78 meters in width, the Kia Cerato 1.6 2014 does not leave anything to be desired in terms of interior space. The 421-liter trunk is also enough for those who need to carry more things on a daily basis or when traveling., even if it is not the biggest in its category.

The model also has electric steering, an important point for those looking for comfort when driving, in addition to four-wheel disc brakes with ABS, providing extra safety when braking. The sound system is basic but functional, and the multimedia system can be easily exchanged for more advanced versions available on the market.

And what about the 1.6 engine? Will it be enough?

One of the biggest questions that arises in relation to the Kia Cerato 1.6 2014 is whether the 1.6 engine can “carry” a mid-size sedan. The answer is: yes, and efficiently.. Of course it's not a sports engine, but it delivers 122 horsepower and 16 kgfm of torque, enough to run smoothly both in the city and on the highway.

In terms of maintenance, as it uses the same engine as the HB20, replacement parts are not a problem, making it an interesting choice for those looking to save money in this regard as well.. Maintenance costs are lower than those of a Civic or Corolla, with oil and filter changes costing around R$350 to R$500, depending on the workshop.

Is a 1.6 Kia ​​Cerato 2014 worth buying?

If you are looking for a car with comfort, low consumption and a more affordable price than the competitors, the Kia Cerato 1.6 2014 is, without a doubt, an excellent option. It delivers a good driving experience, has a design that is still current and brings savings in both consumption and maintenance. Maybe he doesn't have the fame of his Japanese rivals, but it doesn't fall behind when it comes to cost-benefit.

Now it's up to you: Civic, Corolla or Cerato? Who knows, maybe you'll be surprised by this choice!
