Świetna recenzja jak zwykle, podobają mi się też różne ujęcia, no i fajnie, że pogoda dopisuję. Ostatnio uświadomiłem sobię, że są ogromne różnice miedzy krajami że względu na dopłaty. Myślę, że warto byłoby pokazać w nagraniu taką tabelkę cenową. Tutaj w Irlandii, wersja PHEV kosztuje tylko 2.5k EUR więcej, a w Norwegii Ioniq elektryczny jest tańszy od PHEV. Tak jeszcze z 5 lat i pewnie ceny się wyrównają. Świetny materiał, życzę dalszych sukcesów!

You have done great review

160 km/h speedo reminds old Lada car. In Lithuania only incentives for PHEVs are use of bus lanes and maybe free parking in some zones. Also PHEVs and electric vehicles get different license plates instead of XXX:000 they get EV0000.

Nice review. Just one thing.the twin clutch Gear box has 6 speed not 7

That was good one :)

Nice review. I'm changing from a 2015 Prius Plug-in to a Ceed SW PHEV. I searched for SW reviews, but most not in English. I got a -6k discount for top executive trim, closing at 34k. Lower in road taxes, and expensive petrol in the Netherlands, I think I made a good decision. 3 month wait is the only downside. Very excited.

You just obviously like to be a slave.

Have a 1.0 stonic First edition and have been looking to save fuel costs. Originally wrote off the phevs as i thought the ev range is rubbish but after careful consideration it might be better than a regular hev. I did test drive a hev niro and liked it but again mpg would suffer. Very expensive in UK though as prices new are around 30k gbp

Congrats our equivalent here would likely be Elantra GT or Kia Forte5

The digital instrument cluster looks a lot like BMW's from a couple years ago for example the G30 when it just came out. Especially in eco pro mode, then it really looks like the XCeed hybrid one. I find quite nice and a mandatory option if it isnt already standard.

Depends on the market. In Poland it's an option on lower trim, standard on top trim. In Germany I think all PHEVs get the digital instrument cluster.

I think that someone should buy a pure hybrid a decade from now when technology will be improved and e-cars will be more practical and cheaper to buy and also the charging stations will be spread across every country.

Wow, really good english Marek, I am impressed :) But... By my calculation if the PHEV Business Line costs 140k PLN and 1.4 T-GDI with similar specs costs like 120k PLN after 3-4 years including gas cost it will be cheaper to buy PHEV in general. I assumed that I will drive around 80km each day, so in my case PHEV is more attractive.

This car is the best looking compact size car Kia makes. It is a shame they don't make a full EV version of this, in stead of the Niro and Soul. I am sure of they would have a true winner in their hands. Because Kia/Hyundai fully electric efficiency is today the only real competitor to Tesla. They just need to offer it in a more handsome car then they do today. No least in consideration of the price point. Her in Iceland a model 3 is cheaper then a 64km Niro or Soul. And when so. No one is buying those cars. But a full EV version of the Xceed could become a player against the model 3, if they could offer it with the 64kw battery.

XCeed any powertrain not available in Ukraine. Preferences for electric or hybrid? Ohhh common......

Funny enough because of the new gigantic taxes on gas and diesel cars here in Sweden + the discount for hybrid cars. The the hybrid actually turns out cheaper per month no matter what way i look at it.

Marek, I have the Niro hybrid. The hybrid is recharging based on driving style. My car rarely runs less than 40% electric and then various percentages up to 100% depending on weather and driving style. The PHEV simply adds higher battery capacity, so you are describing Toyota hybrid systems, not Kia when you say that once the plug-in charge has expired, it runs on petrol only. Batteries are more efficient in warmer drier weather - approx 10mpg difference on cold damp weather. My hybrid is even re-charging the battery when its running 100% EV thanks to various older Formula 1 specs

Vehicle looks good. In Belgium we dont pay taxes on Hybrid vehicles, which can be quite expensive depending on the vehicle. For example for a new BMW G20 330i you would normally pay 2500 +/- euro first tax and then 450 euro every year. So buying a 330e you save almost 3000 directly. Other than that no benefits, except you can enter areas in big city like Antwerp and Brussels in the emission free zones.

People who own PHEVs because they were scared of going all in often regret not going all in with an EV. They realise after a year or 2 that they almost never drive more than 60-80km a day and with their PHEV, they only drag a useless engine/generator along.

Spedometer with 160 is in miles for american market.

Great review as always, but one thing I miss from most PHEV car reviews: At what outside temperature does the car force the combustion engine to start, in order to heat the cabin/engine etc. I find that to be highly relevant information, living in a colder climate that could greatly affect the economy of buying a PHEV versus a fully electric car. Side note: I did test drive the Optima PHEV, and found the hybrid system to be silky smooth but way less thought out than the likes of the Chevy Volt.

@@MarekDrives I won't disagree with you on that, but as this in particular is often left out of the car spesifications and figures, I would say a more pro-consumer approach would be to indicate a best-case and worst-case temperature range for the petrol engine to kick in at. To give you an example, if I had a first gen PHEV Outlander I would burn petrol every day commuting to work in the winter. With my current PHEV that only happens 10-20 days a year as it allows for -10 deg C before the petrol engine is forced to start regardless of charge level. I am pro PHEV, but also live in Norway where this metric in particular has a great impact on the overall economical feasability of the different drivetrains.
