2013 KIA cee'd GT leaked ahead of Geneva debut

The first photo with the 2013 KIA cee'd GT has been officially revealed --- a five-door hot hatch designed to compete against the Volkswagen GTI.

We already know that KIA are planning to launch the 3-door Pro_Cee’d GT which was revealed a few weeks ago and now we have a look at the hatchback version.

Highlights of the cee'd GT model include 18-inch alloy wheels, a plastic mesh grille up front, LED daytime running lights and aggressive bumper design with red accenting.

With the first photo of the new Kia Cee’d GT, we have not seen the same interior upgrades.

Under the hood is a 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that develops 201 hp (150 kW) and 195 lb-ft (265 Nm) which delivers a 0 to 100 km/h sprint time of 7.9 seconds.

A sport-tuned suspension makes the car more responsive to drive along with a six-speed manual gearbox turning the front wheels.
