BUY, LEASE OR FINANCE A KIA PROCEED FROM OSV - bit.ly/3qGYwh1
This Proceed needs to be reasonably affordable to run to interest likely buyers and the figures seem to stack up acceptably well. The 1.5 T-GDi petrol engine achieves 48.7mpg on the combined cycle and 131g/km of CO2. As usual with Kia, a strong buying incentive is much-trumpeted 7 year / 100,000 warranty which, like the 'Care-3' servicing packages, is transferrable to future owners. However, it is worth pointing out that the warranty only offers unlimited mileage for the first three years you own the car; thereafter, you'll have a 100,000 mileage restriction. If in future, the car is sold through a Kia Used Approved Dealership when less than 18 months old or with less than 18,000 miles on the clock, the warranty will be topped up to match that of a new model.
You'll also need to know about likely residual values, which are a lot higher than they used to be on mainstream Kia models. Independent experts reckon that after three years and 60,000 miles, most ProCeed variants will still be worth 41% of what you originally paid. Insurance is group 16E.
Summary
You probably won't have started out wanting a Proceed in searching the market for something a bit more stylish and interesting that suits your family needs. Now that you know about this model though, it's possible that it might ideally suit a desired combination of desirability and sensibility in a relatively affordable versatile compact family car. We'd still have hesitated to recommend it a few years ago though, given the vanilla way that Kias back then tended to drive. But that's all changed now.
This model's 'shooting brake' concept may be a nod to past hunting wagons of the landed gentry but the concept here is very much of our time: a compact yet spacious estate that doesn't drive like one, that's nicely finished, practically configured and relatively affordable to run. It's very much an estate for people who wouldn't normally buy such a thing. And that makes it quite a tempting prospect.
