Alternatives to consider

Tonka truck looks, without the bulk
Interior high and low lights
Fewer engine choices, less confusion
A technology package designed around convenience
To recap
Kia’s growth in the UK over the past few years can’t be ignored. A real shift in design, a 7-year warranty and a simple approach to equipping the cars with plenty of tech make for an appealing platter. The Kia Stonic might not be the best looking car on the road in this segment, but it’s a fun little thing and seriously worth a test drive if you’re looking at replacing your tired old hatchback.
