起亚近日发布了cee’d GT Line版本，新车有多项升级，将在日内瓦车展首次亮相。该车定位在标准版和GT顶级款之间，旨在吸引那些喜欢GT顶级款造型风格，但又不愿意为该车搭载的204马力1.6升涡轮增压汽油引擎花更多钱的消费者。cee'd GT Line（有掀背车、轿跑车和旅行车版本）将与cee'd标准版共享相同动力系统，包括新开发的1.0升三缸涡轮增压引擎，功率88千瓦/120马力，扭矩172牛米。另外，起亚还对该车搭载的1.6升CRDi柴油引擎进行升级，功率和扭矩从原来的94千瓦/128马力和265牛米提升至98千瓦/133马力，扭矩285牛米。该车还可搭载133马力柴油引擎和七速双离合器变速箱，后者不仅换挡速度更快，而且在手动模式下可进一步降低油耗，同时舒适性和平顺性又不输于自动模式。在外装方面，cee’d GT Line标配17英寸合金轮圈，立方体LED日间行驶灯，更粗壮前后保险杠，双排气尾管和LED尾灯组。至于内装，则采用新的灰色、黑白色内饰和灰色缝线，GT Line标志，真皮方向盘，黑色钢琴漆装饰件和铝制踏板，空调出风口周围镀铬装饰，电动车窗，发光USB & AUX插口以及新的铝制引擎启停按键。起亚表示，cee’d GT Line将于今年四季度上市。
Kia cee’d GT Line revealed with 1.0 turbo and 7-speed DCT
Kia is introducing a GT Line for the cee'd range which comes with a number of enhancements.
Set to make its debut next month in Geneva, the GT Line will be positioned between the standard models and the range-topping GT version. The latest addition to the cee'd range was designed for those who like the styling of the flagship GT model but aren't willing to pay the added premium that comes with the 204 HP 1.6-liter turbocharged gasoline engine.
Instead, the cee'd GT Line (available for hatchback, coupe and wagon) will get the regular cee'd engines including a newly developed three-cylinder 1.0-liter turbo outputting 120 HP (88 kW) and 172 Nm (127 lb-ft) of torque. Moreover, Kia has updated the 1.6-liter CRDi diesel for this new GT Line trim and have increased its output from 128 HP (94 kW) and 265 Nm (195 lb-ft) to 133 HP (98 kW) and 285 Nm (210 lb-ft) of torque.
The Kia cee'd GT Line also comes with a seven-speed dual clutch gearbox that debuted on the facelifted Hyundai i30 and will be offered only with the 133 HP diesel. Just like the engine, the new gearbox was developed in-house at the company’s Namyang R&D centre in South Korea and promises to provider quicker gear changes and lower fuel consumption in manual mode while comfort and smoothness have been boosted in automatic mode.
As far as the styling is concerned, the cee’d GT Line comes with fresh 17-inch alloy wheels and has received ice cube LED daytime running lights, beefier front & rear bumpers, dual exhaust setup, GT side sill moldings and LED taillights. Images with the cabin are not available at this point but Kia mentions there's a new grey, white & black upholstery with grey stitching, GT Line logos, and GT-sourced leather steering wheel, piano black accents and aluminum pedals. There's also a new chrome trim around the air vents and power window switches, illumination for USB & AUX ports and a new aluminum start/stop button.
Kia says the cee'd GT Line will hit dealerships in the fourth quarter of the year.
