New Superminis

74 New Superminis reviews available

  • Mitsubishi i-MiEV (2010-)

    Mitsubishi i 2

    New price: £29,045 - £32,045

    Find out what happened when we spent a day with Mitsubishi's all-electric city car
  • Nissan Juke (2010-)

    NissanJuke-1

    New price: £12,990 - £22,490

    Nissan aims to shake up the supermini market with the Juke crossover.
  • Nissan Micra (2003-2010)

    Nissan Micra 4

    New price: £8,510 - £11,735

    The third generation Micra is still as quirky as it was when launched in 2003. This three-or five-door supermini shares some DNA with the Renault Clio.
  • Nissan Micra (2010-)

    01 Micra

    New price: £9,915 - £15,015

    The Micra is going budget - but is it too downmarket?
  • Nissan Pixo (2009-)

    nissan pixo5

    New price: £7,285 - £9,270

    The Pixo is essentially a Nissan-badged Suzuki Alto, which is built in India. A cheap city car, its rivals include the Citroën C1, Kia Picanto and Toyota Aygo.
  • Peugeot 1007 (2005-2009)

    peugeot 1007 1

    New price: £12,151 - £13,846

    The 1007 is a small hatchback supermini but with the added curiousity of sliding doors, proving extremely useful in tight parking situations. An oddball in the Peugeot range.
  • Peugeot 107 (2005-)

    Peugeot 107 2012 1

    New price: £7,995 - £10,680

    The Peugeot 107 supermini is ideal for the city or those without need for much space. It's cheap to buy and run, and surprisingly good to drive.
  • Peugeot 207 (2006-)

    Peugeot 207 1

    New price: £9,985 - £17,730

    The 207 replaces the extremely popular Peugeot 206 supermini. It's a touch larger than its forerunner, but does bigger mean better? Which? finds out.
  • Peugeot 208 (2012-)

    Peugeot-208-1

    New price: £9,995 - £18,890

    Can the stylish 208 take on the Ford Fiesta?
  • Peugeot 208 GTI (2013-)

    Peugeot-208-GTi 1

    New price: £9,995 - £18,890

    The new Peugeot 208 GTI evokes the classic 205 GTI. Can it live up to the legend?
  • Peugeot iOn (2011-)

    Peugeot iOn 11

    New price: £26,216 - £26,216

    Read the Which? Car review of the electric Peugeot iOn city car
  • Renault Clio (2005-2012)

    renault clio iii 1

    New price: £8,805 - £21,590

    The third-generation of Renault's ever-popular Clio got an overhaul in 2009 that brought it up to date, but also bestowed 'Marmite' looks. Is it worth considering over the Fiesta et al?

Used Superminis

82 Used Superminis reviews available

  • Abarth 500 (2009-)

    Fiat 500 Abarth

    Used price: From £11,095

    The new Abarth 500, is a beefed-up version of Fiat's 500 city car. But how does the turbo version of Fiat's 1.4 engine rate in the Which? test.
  • Alfa Romeo MiTo (2008-)

    Alfa Romeo MiTo

    Used price: From £7,995

    Should Alfa Romeo's stylish MiTo supermini be considered a serious rival to the Mini? We put the Italian marque through its paces.
  • Audi A1 (2010-)

    Audia1-1

    Used price: From £11,695

    Behind the wheel of Audi's pricey-yet-popular supermini. Does the VW Polo-based A1 live up to the high expectations of the brand?
  • Audi A1 TFSI (185) (2012-)

    01-Audi-A1-TFSI

    Used price: From £17,895

    The A1 TFSI 180bhp is Audi's answer to the VW Polo GTI. How does it stack up against the supermini hot hatch?
  • Audi A2 (2000-2005)

    Audi A2 silver driving f3q

    Used price: From £3,195

    Audi's premium supermini, built from 2000-2005
  • Chevrolet Aveo (2008-2012)

    chevrolet aveo 1

    Used price: From £3,775

    The wallet-friendly Chevrolet Aveo, a compact supermini, could save you a packet. But does the low price mean low quality?
  • Chevrolet Kalos (2005-2008)

    Chevrolet Kalos 1

    Used price: From £1,725

    The Korean-built Chevrolet Kalos supermini, formerly sold as a Daewoo, was cheap new and a steal used. So what are the downsides?
  • Chevrolet Matiz (2005-2010)

    Chevrolet Matiz 1

    Used price: From £2,350

    The Chevrolet Matiz is a compact city car produced from 2005 onwards, but it started life as the Daewoo Matiz in 1998. We check for signs of ageing.
  • Chevrolet Spark (2010-)

    Chevrolet Spark blue static f3q

    Used price: From £4,475

    We drive Chevrolet's latest city car, the Spark. It's certainly cheap - and the advertising tells us the Spark is practical - so is it cheerful too?
  • Citroen C3 (2010-)

    Citroen C3 1

    Used price: From £6,995

    Citroen's latest C3 supermini is a more refined offering than before. We find out how it rates against well established rivals, such as the Mini, VW's Polo and the Fiat Panda.
