The 2012 Kia cee’d family, which currently comprises the five-door hatch and a wagon model, will be extended with the arrival of this, the pro_cee’d, the Korean answer to the Astra GTC in Europe.
This is the second teaser photo of the next generation pro_cee’d and the part we should be focusing on is the side profile and the wheel arches.

As you can see, there’s a really cool transition from the side glass surface to the tailgate. Meanwhile the roof subtly curves and extends to a slight spoiler. There are plenty of curves, but the design is very clean, very German in a way.

The engine range will be made up of the same petrol and diesel units as the 5-door, with outputs ranging from 90 to 135 horsepower. However, there should also be a sportier model equipped with a 1.6-liter turbo GDI engine with the same 183 horsepower as the Euro-spec Veloster Turbo.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
