    The hatchback remains a popular option among many car buyers due to its clever packaging, with interior space typically maximised thanks to its roof-hinged tailgate. Hatchbacks are generally shorter than sedans and come with the option of three or five doors with seating for four or five passengers. Sizing stretches from micro to large and everything in between.

    7.6/10
    There's a new entry-level Skoda Fabia in town, for thousands less than the price of the top-spec Monte Carlo. But does the Fabia Select feel like a bargain, or a compromise?
