Volkswagen Polo
From

7.0/10
From
$25,888
The Volkswagen Polo Life hasn't changed much since the last version but it's popular for a reason. Still, it's a safe play compared to some of the other hatchback designs coming out now. If you're looking at this for a family car you need or want something that's small on the outside. But does that mean it's going to be too cramped on the inside?
02.
Skoda Fabia
From
$24,990
7.6/10
From
$24,990
There's a new entry‑level Skoda Fabia in town, for thousands less than the price of the top‑spec Monte Carlo. But does the Fabia Select feel like a bargain, or a compromise?
03.
Kia Picanto
From
$18,888
7.0/10
From
$18,888
In a cost of living crisis it's natural to look to what your most affordable new car options are, and the Kia Picanto micro hatchback seems more relevant now than ever.

From
$16,610
The cheapest Kia Rio holds out as a refreshingly humble option in a rapidly decaying sub‑$20K new car market.
