Peugeot 208

The Peugeot 208 feels like a city-savvy fox: compact, stylish and surprisingly grown-up, with a cabin that punches above its weight and enough personality to make daily commutes a little less boring. It’s a smart pick for buyers who want chic practicality without the showroom bluster — easy to park, thrifty to run and oddly fun when the road tightens up.

I've almost had it a year and it's truly powerful on the road, very stable — the driver aids make me feel super safe. In the city it moves around very well and the fuel economy is notable. I use it both on highways and in town and it's genuinely useful.
