Used Kia Carens 2013-present

Stress-free family motoring for seven is the Kia Carens’ forte and the car comes with plenty of kit to keep young people happy

Used Kia Carens MPV 2000 - 2006

It's a cheap six-seat MPV, but it's not as good as most of its rivals otherwise

Used Kia Cee'd Sportswagon 2012-2018

The Cee'd Sportswagon is a spacious andcomfortable estate car –it's a viable alternative to the class leaders.

Used Kia Ceed 2018-2026

Ultra-reliable and well-equipped, the Kia Ceed is a fine usedcar, but the class leaders are better to drive.

Used Kia Ceed Hatchback 2007 - 2012

It's not the most exciting of hatchbacks, but is capable and affordable.

Used Kia Ceed Sportswagon 2018-present review

The Ceed Sportswagon has a big boot, good interior quality and reasonable used prices.

Used Kia Cee’d 2012-2018

The second-generation Kia Cee’d was a stylish and sophisticated rival to established European family hatchbacks. It's now a good used buy.

Used Kia Cerato Hatchback 2004 - 2007

It's safe, well equipped and practical, but driving it is a let-down

Used Kia Cerato Saloon 2004 - 2007

It's safe, well equipped and practical, but driving it is a let-down

Used Kia EV6 2021-present

The Kia EV6 offers keen handling, a good range and plenty of space, and is now a great used buy.

Used Kia Magentis Saloon 2001 - 2003

A low-cost family saloon. Snobs need not apply

Used Kia Magentis Saloon 2003 - 2006

A cheap, roomy family car, but nowhere near as talented as the best cars in the class

Used Kia Niro 2016-2022

The Niro is well made, sensible, practical and reliable – and, in plug-in hybrid form, potentially cheap to run.

Used Kia Niro EV 2022-2026

A talented car and great value, the Kia Niro EV isgood to drive, relatively plush inside, and has a decent range as well.

Used Kia Optima 2016-present

The Kia Optima is a good-looking car that’s well equipped and has a smart interior. However, its steering, engine refinement and diesel CO2 emissions are below par

Used Kia Optima PHEV saloon 2016-present

With low CO2 levels and a vast amount of interior space, the Kia Optima PHEV made sense as a company car, but is it a good used buy?

Used Kia Optima Sportswagon 2016-present

The Kia Optima Sportswagon has plenty of passenger space and a good-sized boot, but it’s neither as comfortable nor as sharp to drive as the class best

Used Kia Optima Sportswagon PHEV 2017-present

With low CO2 levels and a vast amount of interior space, the Kia Optima Sportswagon PHEV made sense as a company car, but is it a good used buy?

Used Kia Picanto Hatchback 2004 - 2011

Hard to fault, other than the fact that it's not a great drive

Used Kia Picanto Hatchback 2011-2017

The Kia Picanto is a tempting choice for those who want a city car that's cheap to run and unlikely to go wrong

Used Kia Picanto Hatchback 2017-present

Great driving manners and a smart interior make theKia Picanto one of the best used city cars you can buy.

Used Kia ProCeed 2019-present

The Kia ProCeed may place its emphasis on looks, but it's otherwise very similar to the commendable Ceed and Ceed Sportswagon.

Used Kia Rio 2017-present

The Kia Rio is a likeable small car and a good used buy. Some of its rivals do things better, though

Used Kia Rio Hatchback 2001 - 2005

Spacious and cheap, but bland in too many ways

Used Kia Rio Hatchback 2005 - 2011

Lots of car for the cash, especially the diesel

Used Kia Rio Hatchback 2011 - 2017

The Kia Rio helped to shrug off the company’s dowdy image with its stylish looks and low running costs.

Used Kia Sedona MPV 1999 - 2006

This big, practical load-hauler is cheap to buy, but not quite so cheap to run

Used Kia Sorento 2015-2020

The practical Kia Sorento hasseven very usable seats and makes good sense as a used buy

Used Kia Sorento 2020-present

The Kia Sorento exceeds in many areas, especially practicality, economy and equipment. It's a great used buy

Used Kia Sorento 4x4 2003 - 2010

A satisfying, capable and economical 4x4

Used Kia Sorento 4x4 2010 - 2015

The second-generation Kia Sorento is a solid option for large families who want the space and style of an SUV

Used Kia Soul EV 2014-present

The Kia Soul EV is swift and spacious but its ride is too firm and the range of earlier models is a little short.

Used Kia Soul EV 2020-2025

For what the Soul EV lacks in boot space and ride refinement, it more than makes up for it withincredible electric range,impressive performance and an extensive kit list.

Used Kia Soul Hatchback 2009 - 2014

Combining fun, fashion and practicality into a town-friendly package isn’t easy – but that’s precisely the aim of the Kia Soul

If you're looking for a fun and funky SUV that's extremely reliable a used Kia Soul could be the one for you.

Used Kia Sportage 2010 - 2016

The Kia Sportage may not be as good to drive as some rivals, but it gets lots of kit and has plenty of style

Used Kia Sportage 2016-2022

The stylish Kia Sportage has a spacious and practical interior and is great value bought used. There's a question mark over the reliability of the diesel-engined variants, though.

Used Kia Sportage 2022-present

The Kia Sportage is a spacious and practical family SUV with a smart interior that makes a lot of sense as a used buy.

Used Kia Sportage 4x4 1995 - 2003

Not a bad car but the same money will buy a much better one

Used Kia Sportage 4x4 2005 - 2010

It's cheap and cheerful, but not great to drive

Used Kia Stinger 2017-2023

A left-field choice maybe, but a used Kia Stinger is handsome, reliable and good value for money. The V6 GT S is a belter.

Used Kia Stonic 2017-present

The Stonic is a fine and capable small SUV with a long warranty and plenty of equipment, but the firm ride is an acquired taste

Used Kia e-Niro 2019-2022

The Kia e-Niro is a greatcar with an impressive electricrange, and its used prices are very tempting.

Kia’s award-winning electric line-up has been going from strength-to-strength over the past few years. In fact, we crowned the Kia EV3 as our Best Small Electric SUV at the 2026 What Car? Awards. Its impressive range, generous kit and comfortable ride earned it a full five stars with our road test team.

 

At the opposite end of the SUV spectrum sits the mighty Kia EV9, and much like its smaller sibling, it’s a What Car? Award winner. We named the EV9 as the Best Electric 7-seat SUV for 2026 thanks to its impressive real-world range, rapid charging speeds and hugely spacious interior.

 

And now, Kia has an exciting new addition to bridge the gap between the smaller EV3 and larger EV9 – the Kia EV5 family SUV. It’s packed with clever tech that’s intuitive to use, and its advanced suite of driver assistance systems will offer peace of mind for owners with families. Add to that a roomy interior, lengthy list of standard equipment and strong electric range, and the Kia EV5 is well positioned to mirror the success of its Kia forbears. Is it time you took one for a test drive?

The width of the interior means that three adults should be able to fit fairly comfortably when sitting in the rear, while a completely flat floor ensures that the middle seat passenger has plenty of foot space – What Car?
