ANCAP Safety Report (PDF)

The tested model of Kia Cerato was introduced in Australia during 2006. Side airbags and side curtains became available in 2007.

The left-hand-drive European model was offset-tested by Euro NCAP. Australasian specifications may vary and therefore models sold in Australasia might provide different levels of protection to those described on this page.

Dual front airbags are standard equipment. Side airbags, head-protecting side curtains and antilock brakes (ABS), are optional. Electronic stability control is not available. An intelligent seat belt reminder is fitted to the driver seat. The front seat belt buckles are mounted on the seats and the upper anchorages are adjustable. These features improve the fit of the seat belt. Pre-tensioners are fitted to the front seat belts to reduce slack in the event of a crash. A three point seat belt is fitted to the centre rear seat. This provides better protection than a two point (lap) seat belt.
