Kia

You have to admire the relentless method behind Kia's attack on the European market. Models in every niche, priced aggressively and of increasingly decent quality. Korea is rising to the challenge...

  • Kia Carnival

    Carnival

    $32,990 - $37,290

    Kia does the seven-seat MPV thing in typical style. So, it's boring to look at, dull to drive, tedious to talk about and a residual black hole. And, naturally, it's cheap.

  • Kia Magentis

    Magentis

    $25,990 - $31,990

    What the Rio does to the hatch market, the Magentis spectacularly fails to do in the minicab sector. Minicab drivers do like it, admittedly. But you won't.

  • Kia Rio

    Rio

    $14,990 - $20,990

    So far from Duran Duran's goddess it's hard to imagine a more polar opposite. A hatch so grim we bet you daren't click on the link, in case the wife finds out later.

  • Kia Sorento

    Sorento

    $33,990 - $44,490

    You still with us? Good. Now, this one is an SUV. Don't try to analyse this too closely though. After all, it's not 'Sporty' or particularly 'Utilitarian'. It is a 'Vehicle' though.

  • Kia Sportage

    Sportage

    $24,990 - $35,490

    Funky little 'lifestyle' SUV, with a bit more fizz about it than most. Makes the road feel like a dirt track, but couldn't actually negotiate a dirt track. Like you care.
