Top City Cars at West Motors

Around-town journeys and the busyness of everyday life asks a lot of our cars, and these demands have raised the bar for city car models throughout the last few years. Many of us need vehicles that can serve us on the daily commute just as well as they can on longer journeys, and at West Motors we often help customers find the perfect nippy all-rounder. In this article, we highlight the best cars for city driving and urban life - including those that make light work of tight parking spaces. Read on to find out more. 

What makes a good city car? 

Easy to park 

With tight spaces and little time to waste, you want your daily driver to be easy to pop into a space and leave for the day.  

Fantastic fuel economy 

Shorter journeys tend to use more fuel, so a fuel-guzzling car is unlikely to be kind to your pocket if you regularly commute around busy areas. 

Well equipped 

Driver convenience is everything, particularly when you’re busy; having everything you need just a tap of a touchscreen, a press of a button or even a voice command away, it’ll make your life a lot easier. 

Meet our top city cars at West Motors 

MINI Hatch 

MINIs are at home on city roads, navigating narrow streets and turning on a sixpence with ease - it’s no wonder they’re such a popular hatchback! The MINI has the advantage of being a classically good-looking car, so it’ll always be a head-turner around town.

The model we currently have in stock features Bluetooth, half-leather seats, and a voice control system. Check it out here.  

Kia Picanto 

The Picanto is the very definition of nippy, but don’t let its smaller dimensions fool you; this car is deceptively spacious but still a dream to handle around narrow streets. The two engine sizes (1 and 1.2 litre) ensure it stays a sensible financial decision but still fun to drive, and the model we’ve got in stock at the moment has many more city miles left in it; there are only 42,248 on the clock! 

Take a look at the Kia Picanto at our Uxbridge dealership today.

MG MG3

The MG3 is a small hatchback with big bank-balance-friendly credentials, thanks to its 51.50mpg and low initial cost price. There’s no scrimping on personality with this car though, with a 1.5-litre engine, and plenty of MG styling. 

The MG MG3 in stock at West Motors at the moment features USB Connection, DAB Radio and 16” alloy wheels. Take a look here. 

Vauxhall Corsa 

Moving up slightly from the traditional city car look is the Vauxhall Corsa , which, despite being slightly larger, is still a fantastic option for commuters around town. It’s one of Britain’s most popular cars thanks to its 5-star safety rating, practicality, and cost-saving benefits. 

The Vauxhall Corsas currently available at West Motors are home to 7in central colour touch screens, cruise control, heated windscreens and more. See our Vauxhall Corsas here.

Audi A1

Capable handling, a well-equipped interior, and an economical engine are what you need from your city car, and the Audi A1 definitely delivers on that. Having a smaller car doesn’t necessarily mean compromising on luxury, so it’s well worth considering this more premium brand if you need a small but perfectly formed daily driver. 

The Audi A1 in stock at our Uxbridge dealership features sport suspension, Bluetooth audio streaming and air conditioning; get to know it here. 

Vauxhall Adam 

The little brother to the Corsa, the Vauxhall Adam was just made for the hustle and bustle of the city. It’s got striking good looks, low running costs, and it’s a piece of cake to park - it’s the perfect city car! 

The Vauxhall Adam in stock at West Motors is every bit as cute as you’d expect - check it out here.
