CarExpert Says
2023 Kia Cerato review
The only thing missing from the Cerato S is a Hertz tag on the keyring, but it's a fundamentally well-sorted sedan that covers all the basics.
There’s still a market for no-frills small sedans, or at least Kia thinks so with its base Cerato S.
While one might uncharitably call this car ‘rental spec’, in context it’s an increasingly uncommon product.
In an era of skyrocketing prices and customers slavering over the latest features and SUV body styles, it’s a throwback.
For someone after a basic no-fuss means of transportation with little room for flair, it remains one to shortlist.
This is the base Cerato grade, and costs the same as a sedan or as a more practical hatchback. But for those who missed the memo, the days of $19,990 small cars are long gone.
Pros
- Seven-year warranty
- Ample metal for the money
- Unexpectedly agile handling adds some interest
Cons
- Tyre roar evident on highways
- Four-star ANCAP rating unless fitted with option pack
- Smaller touchscreen than other grades
