Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Great-looking,
smart inside,
refined,
easy to use and with a great overall dynamic package

Cons
A little of the sparkle has gone,
a few options should be standard,
while some cabin trim still under par

By: 
topgear.com

The Ford Fiesta is superb to drive, smart inside and well equipped, plus it offers a broad range of trim levels – from the affordable Trend to the SUV-inspired Active – to cater for many tastes and budgets. It’s one of the very best small cars you can buy, but the rival Volkswagen Polo just has the edge for ride comfort, standard safety and rear seat space.

Pros
Brilliant to drive
Punchy Ecoboost engines
Good fuel economy

Cons
Some rivals are better value
Decent but not class-leading practicality
Important safety kit not standard

By:

The Kia Soul EV is a small electric SUV with a roomy cabin and a good amount of standard equipment but other small electric cars can travel further on a single charge.

Pros
Cheap to run
Funky styling
Well-equipped

Cons
Expensive to buy
Limited electric range
Alternatives have bigger boots

By:
