Spotlight on cars for the under 25s

The choice of cars for Motability Scheme drivers aged 25 or under is

extensive: here Richard Aucock from Motoring Research looks at four great

choices for youngsters.

The Motability Scheme prides itself on its inclusivity. This extends to younger drivers, with those

aged under 25 still eligible to drive a wide range of cars.

To highlight some of the options open to younger drivers, we’ve looked at four interesting new

car options, showcasing the huge breadth of choice out there. From zippy small cars, to roomy

hatchbacks, to stylish SUVs, we’ve got them all!

Kia XCeed 1.0 T-GDI 3

What sort of car is it?

The Kia XCeed is the crossover cousin to the regular Ceed family hatchback range. It has a

unique body style, raised ride height and tough appearance.

Why is it so popular?

Kia makes some very stylish-looking cars and the XCeed is another interesting addition to

the range. It is perfect for those who want a more rugged SUV-style crossover alternative

to a regular five-door, but who might find the bigger Kia Sportage a little on the large side.

The XCeed is good to drive, with a confident feel behind the wheel and surprising

performance from the fuel-efficient 1.0-litre engine. We also like the ride quality, which

does a good job of absorbing rough city roads. The standard heated seats and steering

wheel of this ‘3’ variant are welcome goodies, too!
