Kia will get rid of the popular model that was produced in Russia

The Netherlands branch of the brand confirmed Autoweek that CEED and XCEED production will end in May, and the Proceded station wagon is no longer produced. The configurator of the KIA CEED family is closed: deliveries will continue due to already ordered vehicles or stocks. According to the Korean brand, already released copies are enough to continue sales until the end of 2025.

KIA CEED sales are stable: in 2024, 65 thousand cars (-3%) sold in Europe. The model is well familiar to the Russians: until 2022, the current third generation gathered in Kaliningrad. However, the fate of the family was predetermined by the policy: the European Union tightens eco -standards, and the EV4 electric car will be written at the KIA factory in Slovakia instead of CEED.

The KIA K4 is considered a KIA K4, but deliveries to Europe are not confirmed by the CEEED successor in the Netherlands. In addition, the gamma will definitely be reduced: to choose between cross-hatch, universal and ordinary hatchback will no longer succeed. The “kinship” Hyundai i30 appeared later, so he has not yet threatened the resignation. However, in the future, the South Korean company will surely reduce the gamut of fuel models.

Kia is not the only company that gets rid of successful gasoline models. In the fall, they will cease to produce Ford Focus: there is once a bestseller of the European market. The last copy will leave the conveyor of the plant in Germany on November 30, 2025
