The Ceed Sportswagon offers a spacious boot, but when going on a family holiday or transporting bikes, utilizing the roof comes in handy. Choosing the right roof rack starts with identifying your car's generation, as this determines the mounting method.
The first generation ED (2007 to 2012) uses raised roof rails. These stand above the roof surface and you can easily slip your hand under their profile.
The following generation JD (2012 to 2018) and the newer model CD (from 2018 onwards) switched to flush roof rails. These lie directly on the bodywork and there is no gap underneath them. If you have a car from a transition year, check the exact production date in your vehicle registration document.
The roof type determines the shape of the feet and the installation procedure. While on the ED model the foot wraps around the raised rail from above and below, on the JD and CD models it rests into the moulded profile of the flush rail.
For each product, you will find detailed information on the bar design and the mounting method. Verify the exact contents of the package directly in the specific product detail before purchasing.
The Ceed Sportswagon is among the lower family cars, which significantly simplifies cargo handling. You can comfortably secure both bikes and ski racks from the ground without having to step on the door sills.
If you plan to place a box on the roof, check the permitted roof load in the vehicle manual. You must also include the crossbars themselves and the weight of the empty box in the total cargo weight.
If you are looking for a roof rack for the short version of the Ceed, go to the Kia Ceed category. Owners of crossovers will be served by the selection for Kia XCeed or the SUV Kia Sportage. The entire brand offer can be found in the Kia section.
Click on your generation of the Ceed Sportswagon estate and choose the suitable roof setup.
