The Kia Cerato in GT Line trim.

Undisputedly, the Cerato is an indispensable model for the Kia lineup in Singapore, but not for its speed and power. Rather, the sheer number of Ceratos on our roads stands as a testament to the trust Singaporeans have in the Korean brand.
If you throw a figurative rock towards a main road, the chances are high that you'll hit a Cerato.
Dubbed the baby Stinger, after Kia's performance sedan, the Cerato is but a small family carrier with none of the pizzazz of the Stinger's 2L or a 3.3L engine. Instead, it's powered by a reliable, economical and sensible 1.6L naturally-aspirated engine. However, the Cerato does bear some resemblance to the Stinger with a similar-looking front grille and headlights.
