- Kia Proceed GT is a car that, although it does not have a prestigious badge on the hood, can make passers-by break their necks. Now this model has undergone a facelift, which for my guest might seem to have happened at the worst moment. I invite you to wath a test comparing two generations of Kia Proceed GT.
very nice comparison. congrats,. i am a new owner of the proceed GT my24. i got mine in november and like you said i fell in love with it. in romania the add-on policy is a bit more relaxed so i was able to get almost all i wanted the way i wanted and kept the car in a viable bugdet. the cost was still huge but i really wanted a GT version and compared with the other car manufacturers it still have 6000 euro short than the next option. I would say i don't consider it a sport car, rather a familly car with attitude, my sons like to ride with me in the car and they enjoy it. my wife not so much mainly to the noise you mentioned also in the normal mode. funny enough she was the first one to drive it outside of the city and she did mention the car feels incredible. consumption wise i made a choise knowing this car will not be economical. i also have a i30 fastback, now my wifes car, with a 1.4l that engine is economical, can go down to 5l/100km if driven smart, but then again it's not fun to go steady 90 on a straight road for a long period of time. all in all Kia proceed GT is the car i saw when i got the i30 but at that time budget wise the hyundai won by a 7000 euro difference and i was thinking i may never get the chance to get the kia. today i can say none of them disapoints. i like both cars for different reasons. oh and the colour yes, red is a no go for GT, i chose mine blue and the contrast of red lines on a blue base car is incredible. everyone that have seen the car love it. if there is 1 thing i regret is not having the 8DCT gearbox as an option. the 7DCT one is not that great all in all, even if they producer said it has better performance. i did not like it when i tested on the hyundai and got a manual then, i am still not a fan now :) but hey if that's the only drawback, i can live with it. you mentioned the cluser as you like the analog, i prefered digital, and chose the supercluster fo 12,5" i can say it's actually quite nice, there is no reflection on it but it's a shame the map representation works only with the car navigation system and not with the AA or Carplay. and the most useless thing i can say it is the voice recognition commands. purely in english only, half of the time doesnet even get what i say and you cannot customise, record commands or train for voice recognition. that is just sad. other producers did a lot better here. value for money, i would buy the car again 10 out of 10.
Hi, im considering getting one myself as even though they stopped producing 1.6 TGDI they still have some in stock. What consumption do you actually get on average and why is the lowest you can go in it? I will have it for daily use so I would like to know both sides if possible. Plus do you have or had any mechanical or other problems with the car? Thanks in advance
@@vojtechdrahokoupil6553 Moje osobní zkušenost: Cestou do Rakouska jsem se dostal s dodržováním jejich dálničních limitů v pohodě na 6,2 l/100km. Pro auto je dálniční přesun do 130 km/h jedním z nejekonomičtějších režimů jízdy, bez problémů se drží okolo 6,5l/100 km, a to i na D1 z Prahy do Brna, kde jsou kopce, kde je často potřeba zrychlit. Okresky, tam je to horší. Auto láká ke sportovnější jízdě, při svižné jízdě, nikoliv jízdě nadoraz, jsem v tom tak za 8,5. Ale bavím se. Když pojedu ekonomicky, budou tam nějaké kopce, tak dejme tomu 7,5l/100. Pokud bych jel na stále na výkonovém maximu, může to být okolo 10l/100, ale tu zkušenost nemám, jen odhaduji. Ve městě jezdím cca 7 litrů/100 km. Kombinaci (palubní počítač se nuluje po každém natankování a nádrž je relativně malá) odhaduji na 7,5l/100 km s tím, že se snažím jezdit slušně, ale občas si udělám radost. Tu tohle auto udělat umí, občas se projedu jen tak. Je to zábavné, řidičské auto. S přihlédnutím k tomu, že se jedná o stále ještě relativně levné rodinné auto, je to super. Hezky jsem si s tím zajezdil večer na Glockneru, kdy už tam byl mizivý provoz. Pokud chce někdo vyloženě úsporné auto, tak asi 1.5T-GDI. 1.6 je velmi závislá na jízdním stylu, když se akceleruje, spotřeba roste, ale baví mě.
@@vojtechdrahokoupil6553 Podle nicku asi mohu psát česky, psal jsem včera, jestli to autor kvůli jazyku smazal, nevím... Dálnice, 130 km/h - do 6,5 l/100km, cesta Kladno - Sankt Johann im Pongau (přes Linz), s dodržením rakouských dálničních limitů 6,2l/100km. Okreska, když jedu svižně a trochu si to užívám, ale žádný extrém 8,5 l/100 km. Město okolo 7l/100km, možná méně, ovšem jedu spíše defenzivně. Když budu plně využívat výkon motoru, klidně 10/100. Kombinaci mívám tak 7,5 l. Auto je zábavné, agilní, výkonově mi stačí a rodina s menšími dětmi se tam vejde.
According to your nickname, I can probably write in Czech, I wrote yesterday, I don't know if the author deleted it because of the language... Motorway, 130 km/h - up to 6.5 l/100km, route Kladno - Sankt Johann im Pongau (via Linz), with compliance with Austrian highway limits of 6.2l/100km. Normal twisty road when I drive briskly and enjoy it a bit but nothing extreme 8.5L/100km. City around 7l/100km, maybe less, but I drive more defensively. When I make full use of the engine's power, easily 10/100. I have a combination of about 7.5 l. The car is fun, agile, the performance is enough for me and a family with smaller children can fit in it.
@@vojtechdrahokoupil6553 hi, to answer you honestly i am not a eco driver man so my consumption varies from drive to drive. the Bucharest traffic is horrid and my consumption is around 10l/100km but if the traffic gets a bit relaxed and i can actually drive it stabilises around 8-8.5l/100km. on the highway at around 130km/h the consumption is around 7-7.5l/100km depending on elevation and on national roads with 90-100km/h speed limit the consumption drops to even 6.2l/100km. that being said if you drive like a maniac (and sometimes you might) the fuel consumption can go upsometimes adding 2 more liters to the previous mentioned averages. in term of mechanical problems i had none. and i don't hope i will. i just passed the 8000km marker with the car on the odometer and the only complaint i have is about the rain sensor. it works, but i seriously would have loved to give the option to have a manual override on the frequency of wipper speed sometimes. it's full auto on the first selection and no matter if you set it for low or fast the wipper speed is adjusted by how much the sensor can detect. to be fair, if consumption is one of the issues you have a recommend you go with the non-GT version the GT-line with the 1.5 T-GDI. whille not as powerfull as the 1.6 T-GDI the consumption is less also. interior wise you can get the same options so it's all about the engine power that you want. i do recommend get the LED lights, they make a huge difference in the night.
Very good review but a few points you said where wrong fuel consumption isn't terrible I regularly get 40 plus mpg on 20 mile work runs
I have a 22 plate facelift GT and my wheels are the same as the pre facelift not the new ones you showed
The car as you said handles well but I totally agree with the damn exhaust note even though I don't have the artificial sound in mine is quite noisy
nice comparison. I bought proceed gt about half year ago its amazing car. What catched my ear is when you were talking about fuel consumption. I drive quite dynamicaly but my fuel consumtion dont reach over 8l of fuel per 100km.
What year is your GT?
@@QK.. 2023
Jakieś opóźnqienie chyba z kilkuletnie,co?
