Surely amongst the biggest in the industry, it spans most of the passenger compartment. It definitely lent a convertible-like feel to driving when we'd open it on warm summer nights. The only problem with it appears when it's completely closed; it creaks and groans the same way a beleaguered hardwood floor does after years of traffic. Our Caddy only had about two thousand miles on it, and it still suffered from this affliction. We can only see this getting worse with age, or at least worse when the temperature drops. But all of these minor details don't matter so much when you get behind the wheel, because of the way that it drives. Most of us are suckers for eight cylinder powerplants, and our top-line SRX didn't disappoint the power junkies in our midst. Its 4.6-liter Northstar engine is a real smoothie, making 320 dulcet horsepower. Like other engines from the marque, we marveled at its muted, refined disposition at low revs around town, and gawked at the way its character changed when we got aggressive on the throttle. It made all the right noises while delivering the power in a linear rush. The transmission's extra gear was appreciated, making acceleration slightly snappier and increasing fuel economy marginally. Show some restrain with the go pedal and you'll get decent mileage, although you won't confuse it with an economy car. Silky-smooth Northstar V8 is one of the SRX's strong points. The SRX still pays homage to its Cadillac roots by feeling right at home in cruise mode, whether or not that's on a long highway trip or a quick jaunt to the grocery store.


The latest Kia Ceed range has lacked a sporty option until now. This is the new Kia Ceed GT: the quickest version of the third-generation family car. However, it’s not a full-blown hot hatch: rather a warmed-up version of the conventional five-door. In other words, it sits below the performance (and price) bracket of cars like the Volkswagen Golf GTI Performance and Hyundai i30 N - instead competing against models such as the Peugeot 308 GT and Vauxhall Astra SRi. Like both of those cars, the Ceed is powered by a 1.6-litre turbocharged petrol engine. Cee’d GT, and its headline figures of 201bhp and 265Nm are pretty much identical - though the latter is produced across a wider rev range than before. The same engine is used by the new ProCeed GT shooting brake too, but there it’s offered exclusively with a seven-speed dual clutch automatic gearbox. The hatch is manual only. Kia has turned its attention to the Ceed’s suspension too.


The GT rides 5mm lower than the standard hatch, the springs are stiffened and the anti-roll bars softened; changes that are claimed to help the tyres maintain better contact with the road during hard driving. Braking is catered for with 320mm discs up front (up from 288mm) and they’re thicker, to withstand bigger and repeated stops. They help the GT stand out from the rest of the range thanks to their red finish; one of a range of subtle superficial upgrades to the car’s look. The front end is treated to a deeper front bumper with gloss black trim along the base, while the grille gets a honeycomb pattern with red highlights. There’s red trim to be found on the deeper side skirts, too, while around the back there’s a small roof spoiler. The rear bumper gains a diffuser design flanked by a pair of twin tailpipes, as well. Fire up the engine, and those pipes soon make themselves heard. The sports exhaust system emits a bassy parp, even in its more subtle ‘Normal’ driving mode.


Switch into Sport, and the sound turns borderline antisocial. Highly appropriate for a warm hatch, in other words. Sport introduces some engine noise augmentation through the car’s speakers, too, which warbles under hard acceleration. Unlike some systems of this type, it sounds fairly natural. The extra drama sets the GT apart from the rest of the Ceed range even when you’re driving around town, and it backs that up with a healthy shove of acceleration on the road. It’s not hot hatch-fast by any means - 0-62mph takes 7.2 seconds - but it’s an engine that enjoys being worked to extract its best. But it’s the chassis where the Ceed GT offers up its most fun. String together a series of corners and the GT turns in sharply and grips strongly. Approach the limit of its grip and there’s a neutral, adjustable balance to the car, which gives the driver plenty of confidence to push on. The ride helps here, too; it’s more relaxed than full-fat hot hatches, so it soaks up bumps rather than bouncing from one to the next. It’s not without its flaws, though.
