Lower, longer and lighter than the five-door, the pro-ceed is aimed at the more style conscious driver.
The only parts carried over from the five-door cee’d are the bonnet and the front wings. The side window, C-pillar and tailgate are all new. The key differences inside are a lower roofline, larger side doors and a rear seat that has been redesigned to enhance the car’s practicality.
