Exciting stuff starts at 2:38
Just curious mate what has changed that people are happy with crappy plastic interiors that rattle over bumpier roads these days?. There was a time people cared about interior quality and not just some silly big entertainment system that keeps your eyes off the road. I wish things would go back to basics where the cars were well made and the interiors were high quality instead of plastic fantastic. Hyundai used better plastics 5 years ago than they do today. They need to outlaw oversize entertainment screens whilst driving too.
@@DEVILTAZ35 no rattles in the Cerato
Agreed though it's a plasty-y looking interior, styling is nice but the finishing of plastic isn't great
I recently got this car, couldn’t be happier. Great car for the price. Especially considering I came from a 2002 rav4😂 quite the upgrade!
Congratulation mate
How do you stand the cheapo plastics they keep using in the interiors though? They also squeak and rattle more and more as the car ages. Just not put together properly yet these days they charge more and more premium pricing for less quality overall just to get a faster engine. Reviewers are even glossing over the fact that as a brand new car they have squeaks and rattles on poorer roads. This just indicates a combination of too firm a ride and poor build quality of components. If these were still $20,000 cars then fair enough.
@@DEVILTAZ35 I’ve noticed zero rattle, even when blasting music. In terms of cheap plastic, you don’t notice em if ur not looking for em lol. Majority of the interior looks and feels very high quality. Honestly could say it feels like I’m sitting in an Audi. If ur shaming the car purely on the Kia branding then you should get past that, this is a really good car.
@@DEVILTAZ35 second comment same point. Have you actually driven the car?
@@DEVILTAZ35 Plastics are excellent. As good as anything out there. But it's still plastic, not wood or leather. You're not getting a Bentley.
Nice dash layout. I am a fan of the analogue gauges over the bloody awful digital crap on offer from many manufacturers. I'd consider buying this car.
I know it's not classed as hot hatch but 0 100 late 6 and 400m late 14s is bordering on hot hatch tertiary considering a vw gti golf 0 100 early 6 sec remember this 20k less than a gti
I drive a Mazda3 SP25 and this is exactly the kind of car I like. A mainstream well equipped reasonably priced small sedan but with a powerful engine. Without all the expense of a Golf GTI or something with a more sporty pretense. A lot of us are happy with mainstream products with a bit of poke.
That's the beauty of it puts out numbers close to hot hatch territory but doesn't cost nearly as much ! Great value
That's a warm hatch then :P heehee
Very impressive 0-100 for a car like that with that power
I really wish they would bring this hatchback version 2 the US market. I like my Forte GT. But the HB is so much more usable.
Congratulations on 150,000 subs PDriveTV. I've been here since 15k
Amazing design hatchback! I am impressed 😍
this is the best sub 40k car in australia full stop
100% mate, very under rated cars
Depends what you classify as "best", and what you look for in a car. The Hyundai i20n, Ford Fiesta ST & even the Suzuki Swift Sport would be more driver focused, sharper and fun than this imo. 🙂
@@freshj1ve I’m talking about as an all round car, I’m not talking about strictly performance or handling. This car is far more practical comfortable and more usable than those for the majority of people.
@@TheWretchedWorld yeah, that's fair enough and thought that's were you might be coming from. 🙂
Yep, as you say, not focussing on one aspect, just an all round car, this GT is phenomenal. Easily the best out there. Surprising that media is not communicating this.
got the 2020 forte5/cerato gt with 5000 km on it at $24000 CAD, currently at 23k km, fkn love it. Also traded in my 18 stinger gt limited for it as i went from payments to owning the forte, miss the stinger but feels like a baby stinger which sounds better surprisingly & still fun to drive. good warranty with KIA too.
Recently bought a 2019 GT sedan. Can't believe how much you get for the money, even with the crazy covid-tax used car prices. The gearbox isn't great, all windows should be automatic, and it should lock when you walk away. Other than these issues (gearbox being by far the biggest fault and really not good enough), this car is amazing. It even looks great, just not in profile. Close to perfect.
Gee sub seven seconds is pretty good for a 1.6 turbo. For the price they are asking, performance and features it makes it a pretty compelling buy in 2024 compared to other car prices.
Really awesome car, if I was going to buy new this car would be my pick.
Great car design and execution.
Faster than Civic Turbo
@Heini Grünbaum faster than the civic turbo rs version though
I raced a P plater in a Civic turbo and I can confirm he saw my rear taillights
Love the video! Almost bought one but went for a Focus ST-Line. Any chance of grabbing one for a video? :)
You going to get the new car?
heads up dash display and digital dash make this model complete. Also hope next year they release hybrid model
Please do Mini Clubman JCW!
If this was in the US I would buy it instantly
Looks like a good value for money. Sounds great inside the cabin. Would be interesting to know if it’s a reproduced sound. Sound like my vacuum cleaner from the outside though 😃
Тачка огонь! 🔥
2022 owner. Just wished the exhaust note was a tad louder or aggressive
2019 owner here - remove the center resonator (there's two catalytic convertors, a resonator then a huge muffler). Removing the resonator gives a lot more note to the exhaust without making it much louder inside the cabin and zero drone - except during cold-starts, which are less neighbour-friendly.
I'm also a 22 owner, and honestly think the note is perfect. It's a sensible car with a little bit of poke and I think the slight exhaust note matches it perfectly. Anything else would likely draw negative attention to the hard working Lil thing.
Owner to a brand new cerato GT if you want an exhaust a little louder without deleting anything (potentially voiding warranty and/or ur cars worth less) get a genuine Kia sports exhaust from the nearest Kia dealer, it’s a option for the cerato and its factory so it won’t void warranty and lower the cost of ur car in fact ur car will be worth a little more.
Does the engine have an overboost function? Thank in advance
Please do for Kia Sportage 2022 GT patrol version. Thanks
Gt line you mean.
In Australia we don't have a petrol GT turbo, only diesel turbo. In America they do, which os awesome
@@davothegreat9990 Yes
I can not stand the rear indicators and reverse lamps so low and in the rear bar, I really wish KIA would integrate them with the stop lights.......
Just needs the digital dash
Good value for money.
Try with a mercedes supercharged, is a c230 kompressor 2005 1.8L
Got one in the same colour. Glad I didn't wait for the new civic or I'll be 10g poorer and slower in an uglier car
Though the civic build quality is at least twice as good and will last many years. The Hyundai is rubbish quality. You are just paying for a fast engine and rubbish plastic interiors.
@@DEVILTAZ35 rubbish plastic interior? Not in my Cerato GT
@@DEVILTAZ35 New Honda isn't better than new KIA, quality would be better on an old Honda vs an old KIA though.
@@DEVILTAZ35 Hahaha! Yeah, right. Get a job, save some money, and go try a new Kia. You'll be amazed.
full tank of fuel costing you .3 sec?
세라 세라 세라세라 세라토!
The low speed ride is very jiggly for something with only 150kw.
Test drove 3 times. Perfect car otherwise.
That's because it's a sports car suspension is setup for cornering and handling not ride comfort 🤦♂️
@@michaeljones7497 it would probably be more suited to more comfort orientated suspension
@@TheWretchedWorld Then it would be a boring car it has a performance/sport suspension setup for a reason it's a turbocharged FWD car designed for people who want to throw it around corners and around twisty roads. If you want comfort then this isn't the car for you.
Feels fine to me. How soft do you want it? Plenty of soft cars out there, this one turns in quickly, holds a line, and the ride is firm but aceptable (to me).
@Ed Findlay No he's not. He's clearly talking about the suspension, which is excellent. The gearbox is pretty bad in a lot of situations. But most of the time I can drive around it. The rest of the car is so good it's a compromise I consider worth it. YMMV.
what’s a mild-brake hold?
We wouldn't recommend doing a full brake-hold with a dual-clutch transmission as it can over-work the clutches. But compared with simply flooring it we found quicker times by building power on the brake pedal only for a second, to initially engage the clutches, and then letting it go. Hope that makes sense :)
@@PDriveTV how about porsche’s or bmw’s dct/pdk? I have learned that by holding them for around 3 seconds more boost would build to optimal point, without burning the clutch
heck, even the 911 turbo s does launch control times and times again.
@@caominh2874 Yes, launch control is different - it does not engage the clutches. This model does not feature a proper launch control system. Instead, it will try to engage the clutches straight away. Thus, it is not a good idea to hold it for too long.
@@PDriveTV I see
I also have a 718 Boxster and Panamera with PDKs, but neither has launch control
I would still be able to “launch” the car by holding the brake and gas. However, as you mentioned above, would my Porsche without LC engage the clutch right away?
@@caominh2874 No, Porsche PDK (and most DSG VW/Audi in fact) allow a 'launch control' mechanism. In you car you should be able to press the brake hard, then hit the throttle and it will instantly climb revs, to around 4000rpm or more in some models (sometimes you need to be in sport mode etc). The clutches are not engaged at this point. A standard Audi A4 35 TFSI has this function, as previously tested: th-cam.com/video/GlSJblcuP8A/w-d-xo.html
I wonder if the ride becomes tiresome on Australia's poor ' back roads '?
@PreFireXO that doesn’t mean anything beyond the marketing, it’s still a sports suspension vs the standard one on other grades. When will they give us a fast but comfortable car. I’d like good bump absorption but with the effortless merging and overtaking suited for highway driving.
Honestly speaking, the Australian backroads are a breeze to drive this thing through, not too firm in my opinion. However, I found inner western Sydney roads to be far worse and a little annoying to drive through. But given the state of some of those roads, it’s kinda expected with any car u drive in.
Edit: I also found the car barely bottoms out and the wheels seem to take most of the harsher bumps (I do worry that I’ve damaged them sometimes when going over bad potholes I didn’t notice, but doesn’t translate too much to the driving experience), that’s a positive I guess?
@PreFireXO They don't do locally tuned suspension anymore
All Kia and Hyundai are rubbish on Australian roads. I would have said you get what you pay for but these days you are overpaying for these by a considerable margin. Stick to Honda and Subaru if you want quality midstream car.
Felt a little firm when new but has definitely settled out even over the first 1000kms (coming from a very plush c class), fairly comfortable imo
Go please santa fe 2022 2.5t
No 2.5T here in Australia
Somehow you guys missed reviewing the 2015 to 2018 Ford Focus ST.
You did the previous model which hit a hundred in under 6 seconds. Do it again and prove those haters wrong. That is faster than the new ST, the old Golf GTI and the previous model i30 N.
No stock till Feb -March :-(
Not bad. Got told approximately EOFY timeframe here in Melbourne
Hii
Anyone else think it’s an awkward shape?
Would of got this car if it wasn’t cheap build & ugly side profile.
Too slow and missing the fun factor
Can confirm it’s actually really fun to drive and surprisingly fast. It would surprise u.
@@samirfakoua I agree and it's Handling is top notch
