Best Hatchbacks according to our experts

01.
Kia Stinger
From
$44,990
8/10
From
$44,990

The Kia Stinger has only been around since 2017 but it's made an impact in the heavy‑hitting sportback market for good reason. Australians have a strong history with high octane sedans. You were either a Holden or Ford family, not both. However, the Stinger was never meant to compete with our 'Aussie muscle' and is pitted against European thoroughbreds. Is the Stinger still holding its own?


02.
Audi A7
From
$63,800
8.5/10
From
$63,800

The 2019 Audi A7 45 TFSI model is the entry‑point to the second‑generation large luxury hatchback range.


03.
Tesla Model S
From
$67,888
9/10
From
$67,888

Tesla's Model S is the pride of the ground‑breaking electric carmaker's fleet. So, how does this sleek, full‑size, five‑door hatch fit with a family of four's requirements for a full week. Can the quiet achiever live up to its smooth reputation, and justify its not insubstantial price‑tag?


04.
Peugeot 508
From
$81,610
7.1/10
From
$81,610

In a market where 'going green' is seen as the new frontier, it's no surprise Peugeot has jumped on the bandwagon. Does its new plug‑in hybrid 508 Sportswagon hit the sweet spot?


05.
Skoda Octavia
From
$40,590
8.1/10
From
$40,590

Skoda is the brand for Euro‑centric automotive pragmatists. Quality engineering and solid value‑for‑money in an attractive mid‑size Liftback and Wagon package. And as the name implies, the new SportLine grade adds some extra spice for the same money as the entry‑level Style. Jump in for our first impressions from the launch drive.
