Kia’s seven-year warranty on its cee’d model has now been extended to offer ‘bumper-to-bumper’ coverage for the full seven years.

When the car was first introduced to the UK market in February, the warranty offer was for five years, plus an additional two years cover just for the engine.

Due to what the company calls the ‘outstanding quality of product emerging from the new Zilina plant’, Kia says it can now offer a full warranty covering everything for seven years, and is applying the new cover retrospectively to cover all cee’d owners who have purchased a vehicle since launch.
