Kia has been making a splash in the U.S. lately with its new Soul, Forte, and Forte Koup, but that doesn't meant the Korean automaker is resting on its laurels elsewhere in the world. As evidence, we present these spy pictures capturing an updated Kia Cee'd running around Europe.Introduced in 2006, the Cee'd was coming due for a cosmetic update if nothing else, and Kia appears to be right on schedule with the redesign. Our spy photographers tell us that this Cee'd will go on sale late this year as a 2010 model following its debut in September at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
Under the camouflage, we're told to expect new headlights and a new front bumper, as well as a reshaped hood. Indeed, looking close we see what appear to be larger air intakes in the lower fascia and much stronger creases on the hood. Out back, less work is expected, with new tail lights and possibly some minor body work on the rear bumper. Minor changes have also been made to the shape of the mirrors to add turn signal markers.For now, all we know for sure is that Kia has updated the Cee'd's exterior. Whether or not changes have been made on the inside or under the hood will have to wait until the cover comes off in Frankfurt.
