7/10KiaPicanto£9,840 – £14,950Another string to Kia’s ever more impressive bow, the Picanto is a fun and interesting city car.
3/10MitsubishiMirage£11,095 – £13,800Expensive, slow, horrid to drive. A mass of metal without sense or relish or ability or anything, really.
7/10NissanJuke£14,935 – £25,170The looks might be polarising but it's not actually ugly and certainly not – bigger crime – bland
7/10RenaultCaptur£17,370 – £24,920If it ain't broke, don't fix it; updated Captur is still one of the better small crossovers on sale
6/10RenaultCaptur£17,370 – £24,920Jumped-up Clio is miles less tinny than the old one. Breaks no rules, but it's good-looking, refined and comfy
6/10FordEcoSport£18,425 – £22,840Ford has gone to work on the updated EcoSport, dragging it from a blot on its record to a class contender
7/10HondaJazzn/aNot sexy, not fun, not a heartstring-tugger, but by gum is this a clever car. Brilliantly fit for purpose
