Hi all, just want to add my verdict, we bought a kia stonic a few weeks ago, the 2020 1ltr turbo stonic 3 in auto, I never really looked at kia because in my mind they didnt really build a tasty car, however after this vehicle it has changed my mind, the stonic is a wicked car its quick for a 1 litre and shocked me, the car genuinely drives great, the only little gripes I have is the steering is light (could be a pro to some) and the suspension is a little stiff but not stupidly stiff and finally the boot isn't as big as I thought but in all honesty they are extremely minimal worries, the car drives fantastic for what it is and the build quality is fantastic for the price I do genuinely recommend this vehicle

[@analea6531]

Thanks for the review I’m getting one next month and I was a bit afraid it will cheap

[@isaachunt5799]

yep we just bought one 2022 gt-line dct7. collect it in 2 weeks time

[@slyd8r]

Omg! I'm really charmed by you new calm voice!!! 😙🤗😍

[@MiniEggs1999]

Your best review yet in terms of presentation style and detailed content/opinion and anyone that can say communicative is a proper journo 😃 👍

[@andresoloc]

I love the new and more relaxed Rebecca! Amazing review BTW.

[@avranwani1982]

Rabbica always fresh and youthful. Thanks a lot it was informative . God bless you .

[@williamgoss4691]

Good useful review, thanks.

[@saimonieminen3410]

I like this review very much. Very pleasant to watch. Regardless of the car.

[@Greggspies]

Saw one of these in Lidle great looking modern lines, initially thought it was a EV. Good review you covered all the bases thanks

[@klasseact6663]

Looks like a small Niro, great review as always. Hair and make up are top notch as well😎

[@robertl2856]

Great review as usual......i also often suffer with wind noise !

[@Why_vern]

She's proper fit! Kia are doing some great looking cars these days 👍

[@cheeseboi2104]

And its affordable!!

[@wakkadakkaify]

the rear is amazing. what a load capacity.

[@letsseeif]

Question from Melbourne. Can you give me an idea of how the Kia Stonic compares (esp sizewise) with its slightly larger 'Small SUV' sibling, the Kia Seltos?

[@steveclem]

We are looking at getting a 1.0 auto. We need an automatic.What are these car like for long distance journeys of 3,4,5 hours? What about up and down hills in the Lake District for instance? Any help would be appreciated, cheers.

[@roamaroundgisg7362]

Question: Should it not be just plain crossover instead of a crossover suv?

[@kingofzanzibar9980]

Can anyone tell me what's the difference between Korean export version and UK export version of stonic,I mean the major difference plz.

[@EndaRochford]

I love my Kia so I can definitely see myself in this

[@anshulrathore7886]

Excellent Review

[@jrs9264]

Rebecca is looking as beautiful as usual. As for the Stonic, which is not for sale in the states yet, move here and bring it with you. We can use it to tow your race car to Watkins Glen.

[@nothingsurprisesmeanymore]

How come the title says 2020 Stonic review and it was posted 2 years ago?

[@giontech8072]

Thus stonic have camera for reverse?

[@fukutaichou1903]

really digging kia's grill lately

[@user-kk2pd6nd1v]

Stonic - 9 points Rebecca - 1000 points! 🙂

[@cajaswindersingh8182]

Rebecca deserves this.

[@pankajtayal4433]

👍 up for kia stonic . Its good looking and good to drive . Little bit letdown by harsh ride though .

[@stephandolby]

Stonic over the Kona any day of the week, but I'm not sure I'd have either.

[@rattleearth9611]

My previous car kia cerato manual very good n safe fuel.10yrs had to scrap so sad

[@movielover4244]

Great car, great pris in Sweden 👍🏻👍🏻

[@Firemarioflower]

0:16 But I thought they already had the Niro?

[@PanPuchacki]

Lovely, car is nice as well.

[@hammaadbadsha5187]

Does it comes in ((AUTOMATIC))

[@elnino1759]

Rebecca, I've been searching for you for years

[@Samiullah-wr1kn]

From which country?

[@techguruamd2163]

👍👍👍👍 You are great

[@supersup999]

*I watch "What Car?". Why? Because of Rebecca!* 😍😍

[@kernowrock555]

Why can't Rebecca be the host of "TOP GEAR"!? she would be great!

[@ris019]

same here

[@pauljohnson8464]

I've just watched this video and I couldn't even tell you what colour it was

[@rajeshpillai9001]

Nice review

[@rocketraccoon77]

Nice to see she's finally given up that sing song voice

[@HuntaKiller91]

Too bad it won't come to my country as this is almost perfect..i hate push start buttons,good for a newlywed like us..only the AsX comes close to this interms of features

[@Elaba_]

I love the looks of the euh car. But I don't have faith in the longevity from the modern gasoline engines with direct injection, stop-start, turbo's, etc.

[@giordanobabic2000]

Fantastic little suv🤩😍👍😋😋😋❤❤❤❤

[@krupniok2007]

1:18 u mean in mpg UK or US gallon?

[@jmw0368]

So, an English presenter, trialling an English specification car, in England.....and you’re wondering if she’s talking US gallons? 🙄

[@Firemarioflower]

I LOVE IT when she leaves her hair long.

[@marshmallowpuff4899]

A small SUV is really just a hatchback . I walked past one of these that was parked next to a Corolla today and there was no difference in height 😅

[@lewis72]

Such a lovely woman. Her voice is just wonderful now. The car would be a disappointment though.

[@vollste]

What car? Exactly. I didn’t notice any car in this video...

[@andrzejkular596]

Dla mnie super☺

[@movielover4244]

Great car

[@bogdanb8289]

Kia Stonic or Hyundai Kona? I really can't decide...

[@theletterblacknote]

[@wolfridsson7239]

[@nothingsurprisesmeanymore]

Was it just me or did anyone else think Rebecca was going to get in the boot at one point? 😆

[@nunoarmando7426]

Is this the same company or carwow partner? The script seems the same... weird!

[@007kash007]

I know haha. I thought maybe it's supposed to be the competition. Let's pick a girl

[@santalucifer1169]

Rented one of these during a rencent family trip to Greece. Not quite on par our 2017 Q7 on many aspects…😜

[@TanaseLiviu]

Lovely car , lovelier presenter :))) I could not care about the STONIC

[@lalopadron1330]

Love rebecca 😍😘

[@anshulrathore7886]

This car is the best and i am waiting for this in INDIA

[@bengeorge9063]

This isn't coming to India. We have the Sonet instead of this.

[@anshulrathore7886]

That was Wrong i request to kia please launch this in india 2021

[@cesarignjas]

I hate SUVs, they are taking over the world, I’m car designer and I’m tired to work on them every day, please people, stop buying them! If you need space then buy a proper minivan, if you want one off-road buy one, and if you want one sport car please BUY one! For God sake, don´t try to buy something that pretends to do all at the same time. Buying this tasteless things over and over is killing the variety and the creativity, it is killing my job! we are less and less compelled to do something really nice and pushed to do just something the majority of mediocre buyers want to spend money on. Keep it REAL.

[@R3nchi]

MAybe we just lke higher sitting and look of the road?? huh?

[@cesarignjas]

You think that SUV´s are one "peoples choice" phenomenon? no, all people have been constantly brainwashed to convince themselves that this is "the thing" and you "must have" reason for that is that car makers want to shrink costs to profit more, keeping long line ups with a variety of models costs lots of money and demands lots of designers to create them all, if they can convince buyers that all they need can be found in a "magic pill" of SUV than they win, not lots of engeneers and designers are going to be needed, because they can be doing just endless small variations of the same boring thing and the beautifull cars that have been loved for decades and was my passion making me choose this carrear will be just a memory of the past, a poster on the wall, or a "furniture" in the garage of the rich, with roads crouded with tasteless SUV´s, is like convince everyone to eat just burger and fries, and forget about all the other food.

[@R3nchi]

maybe to you d... We have crappy sedans which are too big and rubbish out side and without space inside,some half decent hatchbacks, and I think people always adored jeeps like cars but wasnt able to buy them,now with suvs it much cheaper to have atv like car..

[@alfredvalrie5541]

Becs on here looking like a mom who is taking her time picking up the kids from soccer practice.

[@lewis72]

Alfred Valrie *mum *football

[@alfredvalrie5541]

Lewis72 excuse my plebeian American English

[@lewis72]

Consider yourself excused.

[@WOODBLACK]

❤️

[@kernowrock555]

That's better! Rebecca is much more natural and relaxed in this video... I think I'm gonna have to propose again.... What ? oh sorry ..yes ! ..ummm nice car ..very sort of nice... anyways..... back to Rebecca.. She's sooo 'Luvvverley'......................... :)

[@carbuncle1977]

ma'am rebecca is so gorgeous as ever

[@Craigness009]

Rebecca seems more subdued in this review compared to normal...

[@mortenholmer4414]

301Views maybe she is going through hard times off screen

[@Craigness009]

Morten Holmer I hope not. She seems like a really nice girl

[@mortenholmer4414]

301Views I wish her the best

[@jmahizzle]

I think I would be as well if I had to review a Kia

[@jmw0368]

Maybe she’s had a right good seeing to?!! 😂

[@stuartsinclair6269]

Supposedly is she trying to sell this car, there's more negatives she points out which isn't good. So far I've seen 1 of these obviously not a good seller.

[@1SeanPG]

Wayne Campbell: She's a babe. Garth Algar: She's magically babelicious. Wayne Campbell: She tested very high on the stroke-ability scale.

[@user-ol8ft5no7y]

오 스토닉

[@mikeonfreeserve2926]

Get comfy, with a banana? That's too naughty!

[@noelcahill6707]

Really did any1 notice the car

[@DoctorMustafaSaad]

your voice should have been used as Siri's..

[@xGacktus]

just like a picanto but bigger

[@jmw0368]

What?.....absolutely nothing like it whatsoever!

[@nigelcb1300]

Looks better than Hyundai's effort

[@louduva9849]

Nice little package.

[@alfredvalrie5541]

Lou Duva Lou you on here, too?!??? My man! I like your tastes if you know what I mean.

[@louduva9849]

My boy, wherever there are beautiful girls to enjoy, I'll be there.

[@alfredvalrie5541]

Lou Duva 😂👍🏾

[@akashsrivastava636]

Rebecca❤️

[@regipillai3853]

TATA cars have similar quality and performance

[@liljo911xxx]

Do this lady comes with the car...

[@jeffyfrancis1878]

Hi

[@cajaswindersingh8182]

Rebecca, my favourite, fr the last many years...

[@mrknowmyself]

Cute presenter😊

[@Maggiolino45cv]

Ciao Rebecca,bellissima...

[@naveen8669]

I thought it as a hatchback. Didn't look as SUV at all

[@ankushkoul7912]

Don't make that scratch sound 😖

[@wr70beh]

I'm sorry, but has Rebecca given up?

[@Republic3D]

Do not sit on a car wearing jeans. Those metal buttons will scratch the paint.

[@twincammike8329]

We're is the banana.. ?

[@DiiGiiTAL]

Can we just have a video of Rebecca eating a banana, please. Thanks.

[@Terry-io8ji]

Rename the “model “......quadruple the sales.....Kia “celebrity ” , kia “adventure “, or Kia “ blaze “ would sound much better......I could think of a thousand names better than “stonic “. ...just sounds naff ....people like cars with pleasant , descriptive ,catchy or performance names /numbers ....after all , it is their pride and joy.....

[@TheUrbanEpicure]

God, someone needs to teach her how to pronounce Renault Captur. Hint: It sounds nothing like the English word capture.

[@thomasmoll8822]

Comprehensive review, but PLEASE just stop using imperial units. For consumption, at least put the equivalent in liters/100km in a corner of the screen.

[@waelmkaouar396]

Yummy.

[@sajad539]

Nice girl

[@comedyman112]

Seat ibiffhha

[@ZeddtheBarbarian]

Que banana jokes🍌

[@BenzinioB]

Banana?

[@nickkapoglis5096]

beautiful lady

[@mikeraven5614]

Sitting on the paintwork of a car WILL leave fabric imprints - do not do it.

[@shubhamkumarsharma2796]

I love you ❤️❤️❤️

[@MovieBr0]

Man, what is it with car reviews and perverts? lol

[@cajaswindersingh8182]

If Rebecca recommends a car,its reliable....I believe...
