Kia cerato KOUP
Установка компрессора
Чип тюнинг уже был испробован — как всем извесно, ни чего не дал!
Очень многие считают, что чип тюнинг прибавил мотору 15,а то и 20 лошадей.
Забудьте — это мифические лошади!
Да, лошадей прибавилось, но в 10 раз меньше.
Без замены валов, дросельной заслонки, ресивера, доработки ГБЦ и т.д. ВЫ ни когда не добьётесь такой прибавки на штатном моторе, сделав только чип тюнинг.
- Установлен центробежный компрессор Dello
- Установлено промежуточное охлаждение + интеркулер
- Установлен блоу офф
Для начала была построена такая конфигурация. Мощности достаточно, но к ней быстро привыкаешь и 0.5 бара от компрессора, стало мало. Нужен был старт резвее и прибавить немного динамики в диапазоне оборотов от 2000 до 5500.
В итоге был установлен субконтролер и настроен он лайн. В месте с ним и заменены форсунки, на другие большей производительности.
Выпускная система полностью прямоточная. Выпускной коллектор равнодлинный 4-1
Это определённо взбодрило моторчик и машина полетела, как пуля.
Расход топлива не превышал 10-10,5 литров.
Таким не хитрым тюнингом, машина выдала 200 л.с. и 260 Н.м.
Привыкание к бусту, как наркотик и машина опять появилась у нас на установку турбины, после чего получила 220 л.с. и 330 Н.м.

Kia Cerato Koup Turbo Review
Launched in Australia only a few short months ago, the sexy new Koup has garnered plenty of attention and already won some serious titles. The Cerato Koup is officially the most powerful vehicle on the Australian market under $30,000, is Kia’s first turbo engine and was named AutoChic’s Sexiest Car of the Year in 2013. We have seen the Koup all over our TV’s during the Australian Open and there was a very successful Kustom Koup Competition as well. So what exactly is it about the Cerato Koup that has made such a big splash?
Since I first saw this car, I immediately loved it. It’s bold, stylish and sporty without screaming “LOOK IM DRIVING A FAST CAR”. I am all for the glaringly obvious ‘sport’ design, however, not everyone can afford to buy a subdued and practical car for the week and let loose with their sports car on the weekend. Before you ask, no. It is not okay to drive an over-exaggerated designed car every day. Once behind the wheel, there really is no disappointment. Smooth gear transitions, responsive acceleration, direct steering and economical consumption. It’s perfect for city traffic but will still excite out on the open road.
“Since the Koup’s first generation launch the car has been praised as having the look of a genuine sports coupe,” Kia Motors Australia’s Chief Operating Officer, Tony Barlow, said.
“There had also always been the question mark over whether the performance of the Koup matched its exciting looks. The arrival of the new 1.6-litre Turbo with 150kW makes that question redundant.”
So, let’s take a look at the stats:
| Engine | 1.6L T-GDI Petrol |
| Power (kW @ rpm) | 150 @ 6,000 |
| Torque (Nm @ rpm) | 265 @ 1,750 – 4,500 |
| Transmission | 6 speed manual or 6 speed automatic |
| Fuel Consumption (combined) (L/100km) (M/A) | 7.7 / 8.0 |
| CO2 Emissions (combined) (g/km) (M/A) | 184 / 190 |
| Price (MLP) (M/A) | $ $26,689 / $ 28,955 |
The bells and whistles you get for under $30,000:
18” Alloy wheels, chrome grille, heated and electric folding mirrors, dual chrome tip muffler
What I would like to see next time is a more updated entertainment system. Think Hyundai Veloster or in fact the new Mazda 3. Time to see some standard sat nav, larger screen and more entertainment options.
I have been trying to think of what sets the Kia Koup apart and in turn, I started to think about its competitors. That’s where I drew a blank. It seems as though the Cerato Koup really is in a league of its own, essentially creating its own niche market. There really isn’t anything out there that is exactly comparable. However, after much deliberation around the office, we came up with three cars that would attract attention from buyers considering the Koup: Honda CR-Z, Toyota 86 and Alfa Romeo Mito.
Price: Manual $ 42,501 & Automatic $44,921
Warranty: 3 years or 100,000 km
Engine: 1.5L
The Honda CR-Z does beat the Cerato Koup on the fuel economy and greenhouse gas emissions front, boasting a low 5.0L/100km and just 117 CO2 g/km. However, this is what the CR-Z was designed for. It was designed as a more eco-car. This means that the performance figures (and on-road responsiveness) fall well and truly short at just 99 kW of power @ 6600 rpm and 172Nm of torque @ 1000-3000 rpm. For this reason, the Honda CR-Z really is geared more towards those who are looking to drive more economically, are environmentally conscious and looking to pay a premium for it. After all it is roughly $16,000 more expensive than the Cerato Koup.
Price: Manual $39,970 & Automatic $42,545
Warranty: 3 years or 100,000 km
Engine: 2 litre Boxer Engine
The result of a joint collaboration with Subaru, the Toyota 86’s sporty looks captured the attention of many and is viewed by many as the affordable weekend sports car. Surprisingly, the 86 does still fall short on performance figures in comparison producing 147 kW of power @ 7000 rpm and 205Nm of torque @ 6600. The Toyota 86 is therefore plenty of fun for rev-heads, does have pretty much perfect handling and certainly looks the part. However, the 86 is all about the pure, go-kart like driving experience and misses out on a whole host of luxuries, including the ability to fit people in the rear seats, chrome accents on the exterior, auto dimming rear view mirror and auto on headlights. It also has less storage, smaller boot, no steering wheel controls, no remote keyless entry and no rear-view camera.
Alfa Romeo MiTo Progression
Price: Automatic $29,092
Warranty: 3 years or 150,000km
Engine: 1.4L
The affordable car in the Alfa Romeo range is slightly cheaper than the Kia Cerato Koup counterpart, however it is let down by its lack of manual option. It produces a low produces 99kW of power at 5000rpm and 190Nm of torque at 4500rpm. Its high rev’s result in a sluggish start off the mark and its tuning pales in comparison to the Cerato Koups. Interior is a budget fit out and while I personally like the quirky exterior, it really isn’t for everyone.
So you can see my dilemma here. When I attempted to compare the Kia Cerato Koup to its competitors to see why it stood out, I discovered that it doesn’t really have any. The Honda CR-Z really is more for the eco-minded, the Toyota 86 for a weekend rev-head and the Alfa Romeo for the brand buyer. Not to mention the warranty – 5 years, unlimited km. It simply is unbeatable in this market.
The Cerato Koup really extracted key elements from what Australian’s love in cars and combined them into this unique package. It is powerful, economical, affordable, stylish and practical. It can be used to transport four people comfortably, it has pretty much all the extra technology we expect in cars today, it won’t break the bank (at purchase or throughout ownership) and provides the release for your inner race driver. Kia has specifically targeted the dual personality of every Australian – the practical reality and the thrill seeker – and combined the weekday and weekend car into one, all while attracting every man and his dog with such an affordable price.

2015 Kia Cerato Koup Turbo review
Isaac Bober’s first drive 2015 Kia Cerato Koup Turbo review with pricing, specs, ride and handling, safety and verdict.
In a nutshell The Cerato Koup Turbo was Kia’s first turbocharged petrol car – it offers traditional sports car good looks.
Practical Motoring Says The Kia Cerato Koup Turbo might be a two-door but it doesn’t require you to compromise with a cavernous back seat. The turbocharged engine offers plenty of grunt and the chassis is flexible enough to make the Koup a properly comfortable car with enough agility to have a bit of fun on a twisting road.
ARRIVING IN 2013, the Cerato Koup was the South Korean company’s toe in the water of warmed up motoring. Not an out and out hot hatch, the two-door Cerato Koup shares the bulk of its mechanical bits and pieces with its sibling the Hyundai Veloster.
And while the shouty-looking three-door Veloster begs to be looked at, the Cerato Koup cuts a more traditional coupe shape. I’m a fan of the Veloster’s looks, but for me, the Koup is a better looker (in profile it reminds me of an inflated Honda Integra Type R – anyone else see that?). It’s also a more practical vehicle, but we’ll come back to that.
The Cerato Koup is available with the choice of two engines, either a 1.6-litre four-cylinder petrol (129kW and 209Nm) or the 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine fitted to our test car. This smaller capacity, higher output engine produces 150kW (at 6000rpm) and 265Nm (between 1750-4500rpm) it’s mated to either a six-speed manual (as standard) or a six-speed automatic (our test car was fitted with an automatic). Fuel consumption ranges from 7.3L/100km – 8.0L/100km depending on the transmission.
As mentioned, our test car came fitted with the six-speed automatic which offers manual control should you so wish via steering wheel mounted paddles but, if I’m honest, paddles in anything this side of a BMW M3 are a bit of a gimmick. Thanks to its wide torque band (1750-4500rpm) the Koup makes short work of hills and highway cruising, and the auto is clever and quick enough to always be in the right gear at the right time.
And, because the boffins worked on things like throttle calibration, meaning power arrives progressively, there’s absolutely no torque steer even if you do mash the throttle from a standing start. The suspension has been tuned locally with the Koup and Kia’s local engineers deserve a pat on the back because they’ve managed to blend comfort with control and while the Cerato Koup isn’t a hot hatch in the same vein as the Ford Focus ST, it’ll still put a smile on the dial of enthusiastic drivers. The brakes are nice and progressive in their action, with the turbo model getting 300mm ventilated discs at the front while the non-turbo gets 26mm ventilated discs, both get 262mm solid discs at the rear.
What lets the car down is its steering. The electric power assist is available in three modes: Comfort, Normal and Sport. For me, Normal was the best mode; Comfort was too slack, while Sport was a little too artificially heavy – but all three modes need more road feel.
As I mentioned, the Cerato Koup is more practical than a Hyundai Veloster and that’s despite the Koup having one less door. There’s 378 litres of bootspace, and miles more room in the back seat of the Koup than there is in the Veloster. Indeed, I was able to fit two childseats in the back (one’s a booster and the other a childseat proper) and both small humans had plenty of legroom. With the kid’s seats out, I was able to climb over the folded forward front seat and into the back easily and then, once in the back, had plenty of leg, shoulder and head room.
Back in the front, the seats are nice and comfortable for long haul journeys and the general fit and finish and quality of the materials used is first-class. Kia really has come ahead in leaps and bounds in recent years. Priced from $30,290 (+ORC) the 2015 Koup Turbo we’ve tested as seen a $100 price rise over the 2014 model. Our test car was painted in Racing Red (metallic paint is a $520 cost option). The Koup Turbo gets LED daytime running lights, dusk-sensing headlights, smart key with push button start, Bluetooth with audio streaming and more. What it misses out on as standard, though, are things like sat-nav, leather, and dual-zone climate control; these are part of the cost optional Touring Pack which bumps the list price up to $32,790 (+ORC) for the auto-equipped Koup Turbo.
In terms of safety, the Cerato Koup gets a five-star ANACP crash safety rating, reversing camera, front corner and rear parking sensors, as well as hill-start assist, traction and stability control.
