Our Fleet Test Drive: Kia Ceed - 14th report

The only option on the Kia Ceed is the metallic silver paint, coming in at a price of £465
Unrelenting rain and icy mornings tested our Ceed SW's ability to de-mist and de-ice the estate car's glass surfaces recently.
The maximum de-frost/de-fog mode is competent rather than outstanding in clearing the front screen, although annoyingly it doesn't have a graduated fan application, just the adjustable separate upward airflow setting.
Meanwhile, embedded heating elements - like the front windscreen element that until recently were the almost exclusive domain of Ford vehicles - would minimise time-consuming scraping and spraying as appointments loom for fleet drivers.
