UK debut for all-new Kia

KIA will use the 2012 Motorexpo to debut its second generation Cee'd family hatchback. Located at Canary Wharf, the popular London motorshow gets underway on Monday.

The new Cee'd  has a stronger focus on design, ergonomics, fuel efficiency and standard equipment. There's a sub-100g/km CO2 diesel variant to attract company car drivers.

Visitors to the show will also have the opportunity to drive Kia's crossover SUV - the Sportage. Recently topping the 2012 JD Power-What Car? Owner satisfaction survey it was the only car to be awarded a full five-star rating across all categories. Completing the line-up of cars is the fourth generation Rio supermini.

Motorexpo organisers expect around 425,000 visitors to attend this year's show – now in its 17th year. More than 30 manufacturers will be present with over 250 vehicles for visitors to see and, in some cases, test drive around the Canary Wharf estate.
