Fancy a used hatchback for less than £15,000?
May 28, 2025 by Mat Watson
Car changing is a big deal
This affordable family hatchback is impressively practical and loaded with high-tech features. The best part? You can find used models on Carwow for under £15,000.
This hatchback boasts sleek design, packed features, and reliable performance – all backed by an industry-leading 7-year warranty. The Kia Ceed offers a practical yet comfortable ride, with modern tech that makes it a great choice for a sensible family car.
The front seats offer plenty of adjustment, even electric in the top GT-Line S model, ensuring comfort for tall drivers. Rear seats are just as roomy, letting tall passengers sit comfortably behind similar-sized front passengers. The Ceed also beats the Volkswagen Golf with 395 litres of boot space, plus an adjustable boot floor that removes the loading lip for easier loading of bulky items.
Here are more pros and cons on the car from our reviews team:
| What’s good | What’s not so good |
|---|---|
| Good-sized boot | Unassuming interior |
| Lots of standard equipment | Not much fun to drive |
| Very economical diesel engine | Headroom’s tight in the back |
Kia Ceed used and lease offers
A new Kia Ceed has a starting price of £22,825. But through Carwow, you can get one used from under £15,000, saving yourself around £7,500. For instance, you can get this 2021 Kia Ceed, with only 5,115 miles on the clock, for £14,800.
This is for an 3 model which comes with sat nav, ISOFix seats, Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth, cruise control and 395 litres of boot space with the seats up. It also is a 1.5 litre petrol with a manual transmission with a 49.6 average mpg.
If leasing is more your style, you can lease a new one from £228 per month, with an initial payment of £2,398.43. This is for a 1.5 litre manual petrol version 2 model. This comes with cruise control, 16-inch alloy wheels and LED brake lights. You also get a reversing camera and 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with smartphone mirroring, DAB digital radio and Bluetooth connectivity.
Kia Ceed alternatives
Still not convinced? Here are some other hatchbacks for you to consider:
- Skoda Scala: All-around practicality but there’s no electric or hybrid version.
- Hyundai i30: 1.0-litre engine is noisy when pushed but the interior is very spacious.
- Ford Focus: Great fun to drive but the boot is average for its class.
