This car was high on my options due to how much car you get for your money and your enthusiasm for the "bang for the buck" has convinced me to buy. Your presentation is great for english listeners, so keep going.
Just decided to buy this car based on your review. I loved it when I saw it and sat in it, but I was still looking at other options. Hope you keep doing these reviews!
Subscribed from Poland, good luck. I drove BMW over 230KM rear wheel drive for several years. I had the GT version 204 KM test drive at the dealer, ordered the next day ...
Very nice and thorough review! I purchased the Ceed GT model back in April, and already did 25K on it! I really couldn't be happier with this car. As you mentioned, the value for money you get is outstanding, and there isn't any other car that comes even close to it. Anyhow, keep the great vids coming. Peace ✌
Awesome review...just what I needed to make a decision. Your english is great and accent is very likeable. Just subscribed (I usually don't subscribe that easy). Keep up the good work...and keep it casual and simple like this one, bit of humor to spice it all, very unique. Regards from Croatia
I just ordered the GT-PlusLine with sunroof yesterday (with electric “trunk” 😉). Now the 10-months wait has started: it’ll be worth it! Loved your review; keep it up! Liked (and subbed to help grow your channel)! ❤️
Thank you buddy I was in the process of choosing a new car and you have made it easy for me I’m definitely going to have a Proceed GT line thanks to your review so thank you buddy
Amazing review! Thanks for the insight and the technical feedback on driving! Question, does it have wireless Apple Car Play or just using the USB cable? Keep up the amazing job!
I got one since february this year..... great car, definately worth the money and more when you are smaller the 1,80mtr... not ideal for long people..., but with my 1,76 mtr its ideal....
Dan you may have just sold this car to me. I've been looking at the DS4 but the engine options are horrible. this car at this size and fun. It's a winning combo!
I’m glad I managed to help you out! The DS4 is beautiful and has it’s own qualities (maybe not the price) and the only engine worth on that car is the plug in hybrid. But plug in hybrids are shit..😂😂 You have to decide between dynamics and luxury. Personally, I would choose the Proceed, but I do like myself an estate 😁
We just bought one with the "same" specs in the netherlands and we have electric trunk, front and back heated seats front memory electric seats and panorama roof, ours also costs 42k salutare din olanda!
The Proceed is a bit more stable on twisty roads and a bit smoother on the highway due to the extra length. But the Ceed is more agile, gives you a feeling of a hot hatch, especially the manual one 😁
The cornering light works well, but it’s the “simple” form, not the fancy LED’s you see on more expensive cars, and the GPS…I never test the GPS 😂 I only use carplay 🤷🏻♂️
Hello, the seat driver is it ok far a tall person? I'm 1,90 m tall and in my hometown my Kia dealership doesn't have a Proceed model to try on. Many thanks in advance and very good video, totally liked
Thank you for the kind words! Yes, I am 1.83 and I have no issues whatsoever. The seats lowers a lot, BMW style, so you’ll be A OK no matter the height. Theoretically, if you test the seating position in a Ceed GT-Line, it should be the same
@@dantheromanian at the end i decided to go for a blue flame but thanks anyway :) But still dont know if i should go for an automatic gearbox or not. Its shooting brake so a manual doesnt seem that Bad.
@@dantheromanian I am very curious how you will evaluate the performance and handling of this version. There are changes to the suspension not to mention engine
Well. It depends. This is equivalent money wise with the previous A shooting brake. But on that, you don’t get the benefits of a new car. I prefer the interior of the 2019+ A class, especially with the extended LED package. This one is more dynamic though. So it’s literally up to you and how thick your wallet is 😁 The Proceed is also better maintenance wise, cheaper and I would probably bet on it to be more reliable as well. Mercedes is nicer, comfy-er and better looking 😁
1 subwoofer. Small deco woofer, big deco is..... deco. I blow up 1 ready and take them apart. Is not JBL. Only on front 2 jbl that's all. I drive a optima phev from 2019 and the sound is mutch better. The proceed is a beautiful Car but that's all 😢

Is there wireless Android Auto or Apple Carplay? My Kia Ceed had lots of issues.
@@JAIMYHESFILMS no there is not. You can get a 3rd party device and have wireless CarPlay and android auto
great rewiev, great job. Thanks Dan!
Great Video watching from the UK keep doing what youre doing!
This made me even more excited for when my Proceed gets delivered in...20 weeks 😢!
Dude I really hope you get more subs, you deserve it.

Nice review , dude! Keep it up!
Tanks for this video. A perfect report for a perfect car. Hello from France.
Cracking review fella and glad you enjoyed the car
I got a 1.6 GT in Feb and coming from a mercedes I've been pleasantly surprised how good it is 👍
Yep. Exactly my point. This car seems shockingly good 😌
Congratz on the new channel, keep up the good work! :)
Thabk you! 🙏🏻
Was looking to get a KIA car. Awesome review. Subbed :)
Great review, you deserve more subscribers. Nice work
Thank you! 🙏🏻 I hope I get some soon 😂 I just need to pass the 1K mark 😂
Thank you buddy I was in the process of choosing a new car and you have made it easy for me I’m definitely going to have a Proceed GT line thanks to your review so thank you buddy
Glad I could help! Best of luck!
Amazing review! Thanks for the insight and the technical feedback on driving! Question, does it have wireless Apple Car Play or just using the USB cable?
Keep up the amazing job!
Nope, only USB. They might change it on MY2024, but I’m not sure though 🤷🏻♂️
Great, you have new sub, keep going!
Thanks, will do!
Really enjoyed the video. Tempted to lease one here in the UK
Do it. Doesn’t cost you much. I mean..if you’re really interested in one, I see no reason why not 😁 just be sure to take it on serpent roads 😁
@@dantheromanian first thing I’ll be doing is taking it around the Highlands :)
Great video man
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice review
Beautiful looking car!!
I got one since february this year..... great car, definately worth the money and more when you are smaller the 1,80mtr... not ideal for long people..., but with my 1,76 mtr its ideal....
Good video, I'm thinking of ordering one of these so appreciated your content. Sub'd
Thank you! 🙏🏻 I’ll keep ‘em coming 😁
Nice video, I liked it a lot. Genuine.
Small corrections: driver LCD has 12.3 inch not 10 inch and if you hold a camera button you can activate a parking asistent.
Thank you! Did not know that. And the screen size, I just approximated it 😁
Super! 👍
Great Vlog, is this the gt-line automatic or gt plusline automatic? And how does the audio System sound?
It’s actually above decent. It’s pretty good, it’s warm, but you have to adjust it or you’ll have too much bass
Hello. May I ask if you know does this new 2023 kia proceed, and also the kia ceed, have cameras on turning signals that show on dashboard?
Nope, that’s a function only on bigger cars. Like the Sportage, Sorento or even Santa Fe
@@dantheromanian thank You for the answer.
Dan you may have just sold this car to me. I've been looking at the DS4 but the engine options are horrible. this car at this size and fun. It's a winning combo!

But plug in hybrids are shit..😂😂 You have to decide between dynamics and luxury. Personally, I would choose the Proceed, but I do like myself an estate 😁
I have the kia proceed with 160hp over 1 year now and i did not regret. I love it
We just bought one with the "same" specs in the netherlands and we have electric trunk, front and back heated seats front memory electric seats and panorama roof, ours also costs 42k
salutare din olanda!
Well, yours has more extras, plus The Netherlands have bigger taxes, therefore you have the increased price difference
Good luck with the channel 😊
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Will this review also work for the driving feeling of the regular Ceed Gt line 1.5 DCT or are they different ?
The Proceed is a bit more stable on twisty roads and a bit smoother on the highway due to the extra length. But the Ceed is more agile, gives you a feeling of a hot hatch, especially the manual one 😁
@@dantheromanian tnx for the reply, and the 1.5 engine has enough power?
Yep. 160 HP is more than enough. And it feels like plenty on these cars. But you can also get the 1.6 with 204 HP if you wish for more 😁
@@dantheromanian yeah I now drive a 2012 Kia Rio with a 1.2 engine and 86hp, I think the jump to the 1.5 160hp will be a blast for me XD
What about the GPS system? And is there "corner light" at the model?
The cornering light works well, but it’s the “simple” form, not the fancy LED’s you see on more expensive cars, and the GPS…I never test the GPS 😂 I only use carplay 🤷🏻♂️
Hello, the seat driver is it ok far a tall person? I'm 1,90 m tall and in my hometown my Kia dealership doesn't have a Proceed model to try on. Many thanks in advance and very good video, totally liked

@@dantheromanian many many thanks 🙏
Do you prefer this car to the Skoda Octavia 1.5 with 150 hp?
How do they both compare?
Thanks in advance
Definitely this one! It’s better in almost any way. Only point for the Skoda goes towards the “simply clever” pack
@@dantheromanian If you don't care, why are you so sure?
Can anyone tell me what colour is it? in configurator theres one red called New Infra Red (AA9) is it this one or its another. thanks
It is the Infra Red, yes. But Orange Fusion is also pretty nice
@@dantheromanian at the end i decided to go for a blue flame but thanks anyway :)
But still dont know if i should go for an automatic gearbox or not. Its shooting brake so a manual doesnt seem that Bad.
How tall are you? I ask because I can barely fit into this car and I'm 1,85 [m] and you've said it has a lot of room
I am 1.83, and yes, had a lot of room. Maybe it depends on the body type 🤷🏻♂️
No auto immune n the UK for this model?
Have no idea what sells in the UK, sorry
That annoys me about cameras not having a cover such an amazing looking car but is let down in one thing
Any chance for test of GT version?
I’ll have to wait for the to bring it first 😁
@@dantheromanian I am very curious how you will evaluate the performance and handling of this version. There are changes to the suspension not to mention engine
Suprb
Whats the sound system?
I think it’s Alpine, but I’m not sure
JBL, i did my research. nice suprise @@dantheromanian
Its jbl
Keep up the accent. Nice job
this or merc a class saloon?
Well. It depends. This is equivalent money wise with the previous A shooting brake. But on that, you don’t get the benefits of a new car. I prefer the interior of the 2019+ A class, especially with the extended LED package.
This one is more dynamic though.
So it’s literally up to you and how thick your wallet is 😁
The Proceed is also better maintenance wise, cheaper and I would probably bet on it to be more reliable as well.
Mercedes is nicer, comfy-er and better looking 😁
But the noise wheel is terrible :( it can literally kill Your pleasent of the drive it 😢
pentru algoritm!
Well based on the size its more like a RS4 for the poor guy.
1 subwoofer. Small deco woofer, big deco is..... deco. I blow up 1 ready and take them apart. Is not JBL. Only on front 2 jbl that's all. I drive a optima phev from 2019 and the sound is mutch better. The proceed is a beautiful Car but that's all 😢
Never said it’s the best, but it does have a lot of presence. I must give it at least that 😁
LOL U just showed them
Poor can't afford to pay for this car. You are out of touch like many car reviewers.
