ID.3 catches less wind. It's more pleasant, especially on the highway. Also: more economical, lighter and with the same step‑in height.

Great all rounder, surprisingly spacious cabin. Rapid and refined. Not quiet enough space in the boot for a bike, could use more ground clearance.

Fiat Qubo

The Fiat Qubo is a compact, boxy people carrier that makes daily chores feel less like a battle, with a surprisingly roomy interior and clever sliding doors that make loading kids or shopping embarrassingly simple. It’s not trying to be a sports car — instead it’s a sensible, easy-to-park city partner that rewards practicality with low running costs and a cheery Italian twinkle.
