Kia Stonic 2023
Carsguide Contributing Journalist Helen Frost had this to say at the time: If you’re looking a for a light SUV that’s towards the cheaper end of the market, the Kia Stonic is a great vehicle to consider, and the Sport gives you a few extra features like the in-built sat nav and keyless entry. One of my favourite features is how easy it is to park and I had great visibility.
