This is our first (brief) look at the Kia Proceed, the three-door version of Kia's C-segment family hatch, the Ceed. Except... this time around, the Proceed isn't the three-door version at all, but instead is an estate. Don't take our word for it: Kia describes the car as merging 'stunning design with the space and versatility of a tourer in a five-door shooting brake body'. We've actually had wind of this idea before, with 2017's Proceed Concept shown at Frankfurt last year being the indicator of the Korean shooting brake. Kia says the Proceed will 'offer drivers an unparalleled combination of design and versatility', with the car designed, developed and engineered exclusively for Europe. Following a full reveal on September 13, the Proceed will make its public debut at the Paris Motor Show in October.
