| Kia’s European-designed
and built Cee’d family car has been awarded a five-star safety rating
in the latest Euro NCAP crash test results. The cee’d has been rated
at five stars for adult protection, four stars for child protection and
two stars for pedestrian protection.
“The latest Euro NCAP result is a landmark achievement for
Kia. The Cee’d was designed, engineered and built in Europe, to
meet or surpass the expectations of European consumers in every respect
– including safety,” said Yong-Hwan Kim, senior executive
vice president and chief operating officer.
The Kia Cee’d five-door hatchback, which is equipped with six airbags
(front, side and curtain airbags) as standard, achieved good or excellent
points scores in the front impact, side impact and child protection Euro
NCAP tests. All Kia Cee’d cars are manufactured at Kia’s new
assembly plant at Zilina in Slovakia.
Kia’s Cee’d SW “sports wagon” goes on sale from
September, and the new three-door pro_cee’d model is being launched
the same month at the Frankfurt Show.
