EXTERIOR
A perfect balance fun and function
The enticing silhouette of the Cerato extends from its long hood, under which its power is generated, to the spacious cabin, where there is ample legroom and headroom thanks to the gentle sweep of the roofline. Every day, you will find new possibilities to explore in a sedan that is built to go beyond.
Built for motion stunning at rest
The Cerato has the best of both worlds—a sporty character with a nimble suspension and responsive drivetrain, coupled with the allure of a spacious, welcoming interior. Aerodynamic contours draw the eye from front to back, while its daring stance signals that it's up for anything.

Eye-catching from any angle
There are a number of stunning details you’ll notice every time you return to your Cerato. The boldly shaped, complex headlamp housings. The intersection of the side contour and the front grille. And how the tail lamps seamlessly blend with the rear trunk lid spoiler. Every line on the Cerato contributes to its winning personality. -

PERFORMANCE
Daily performance powered by ingenuity
Enjoy spirited and responsive performance with the lively 1.6 liter gasoline engine featuring Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing (D-CVVT) and electronic fuel injection.
SAFETY
Phenomenal rigidity with smarter materials
The Cerato boasts substantial torsional rigidity thanks to strategic application of hot-stamped steel and Advanced High-Strength Steel. The body resists twisting forces, so jolts are absorbed with precision. In the event of a collision, impact forces are managed in ways that better protect the occupant space.

6 airbags (SX only)
To help protect occupants and potentially reduce injuries in the event of a collision, the Cerato includes driver and front passenger airbags, two front-side airbags and available side-curtain airbags running the length of the interior on each side.

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) (SX only)
Optimal braking performance and directional control are ensured by automatically delivering the right amount of braking force to each wheel based on evaluation of engine torque and driving circumstances.

Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
By continuously sensing wheel speeds, ABS detects when a wheel is going to lock, then modulates brake pressure to the wheel to help maintain control.

Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC) (SX only)
When you’re stopped on an incline, HAC can help prevent you from dangerously rolling backwards. When you take your foot off the brake, HAC will maintain braking for two more seconds before you press the accelerator, which disengages the HAC.
