Kia claims the Cerato S uses 6.6L/100km of Unleaded in the combined city and highway cycle while putting out 158g of CO2.

The Cerato S comes standard with 205/55 R16 front tyres and 205/55 R16 rear tyres. It requires a service every 12 months or 15,000 km, whichever comes first. It has a 84 month, unlimited km warranty.

    The 2015 Kia Cerato S has a 140mm ground clearance with a 1200kg braked and 610kg unbraked towing capacity.
