With a spacious cabin and generous boot, the Kia Venga proves small cars can deliver big practicality. Compared to other models in the maker's line-up -- like the larger Carens - it's not cheap, but it does offer good comfort and plenty of safety equipment. Inside, driver and passengers will find loads of head and legroom, although the quality doesn't quite match that of Kia's Cee'd.

Most practical car we've ever had, plenty of room no problem with head height in drivers seat or the back seats, lovely driving position. We had VW golf's for many years..mainly because the reviews were always so good! We'd never go back to the VW now.

[@uamade]

Visitor from the future. It is 2022 and Mat has not aged a day.

[@itsmephil2255]

My gf has just bought a Venga, and it's perfect for what she needs.,not everyone thrashes a car and treats it like a Ferrari....the Venga is a car that does what it says....is well priced and has lots fitted as standard..

[@ttinwelint]

How about noise level when you reach highway speeds?

[@MrFrontzie]

@@ttinwelint Literally just bought one - it's quiet at 70mph (petrol auto).

[@netako]

I really miss small MPVs, It's much more practical compared to subcompact crossovers or even some crossovers.

[@Top_Gear_Clips_Central]

True but as a lot of them werent that stylish most people didnt bother buying them

[@czech27]

i actually like the way the diesel engine sounds

[@yannisk8133]

In 1:55 , you don't put your palm inside the wheel Mat, it's so wrong to turn a steering wheel this way !!

[@reddexred]

okay Mat you are getting freakishly good at these reviews = Awesome

[@willutube]

I have been driving a 65plate 1.6L AT Venga for 9 months. It has everything to offer as an everyday car and a short family road trip car. It does not have an attractive look, but I can't complain.

[@poker1701]

I have a 2016 Kia venga and I love it.

[@stevenjenkins4639]

Me to I have 66plate 1.6isg diesel got everything on it I love it don't do as much to gallon as they say

[@funnyfiveminutes]

Steven Jenkins I'm interested in getting one second hand. My concerns are : that some reviews say the ride is very stiff, some call it hard. And the 1.6 diesel is loud and rough, not very refined. Your thoughts on this would be very welcome.

[@bobwalsh3751]

The Venga bus is coming And everybody's jumping

[@eternalhalloween1]

Overall, for what it's suppose to be, it's not bad. It's essentially an MPV that's disguising itself in the name of auto fashion. I respect Mat as a reviewer. but one complaint I have about him is that he doesn't often accept the car for what it's suppose to be. Jeff Glucker is notably more fair. A good example is with the Toyota Prius. Jeff explained that there's nothing sporty here. It's all about fuel economy. THEN, he explained that there is a different type of excitement when you see how far you're going and how little fuel you're using up. He said it's a different kind of enthusiasm, but it's certainly there.

[@MrDan957]

Wish I still had mine it was a fantastic car and it’s a shame they aren’t producing the Venga anymore 😩

[@kaunas888]

I like the inside, but after driving it I found the steering to have little feedback, the suspension stiff and rattly, and the diesel engine to be loud, rough and under powered. I like the can, but not how it drives.

[@simeonselmon8318]

Could not agree more

[@TheCarArchives96]

the 2009-present Kia Venga is assembled in Nošovice, Czech Republic Žilina, Slovakia

[@RossBraunDesserts]

I like the design

[@martinkrot4651]

I got this one and I love it, great car for new drivers! go for it!

[@TheHoth1]

What is the Kia Venga in America? Do we even have it here?

[@jpen5599]

Ten years and about 2000€ for repairs, and basic maintance is very cheap. Some thing are for DIY person are so easy. 280 000 km atm.

[@Calvarydima]

They are very nice cars and yes with diesel . Diesel engine is great save on gallons .

[@mr.nuggetgamingnews2437]

My sister is getting a car is this car good? I want ur opinions if u own this car

[@CarlHolness1986]

The kia venga is a Hyundai ix20 both the same just different names. it replaced my current car which is the hyundai matrix in 2010 / 2011.

[@blueburaq]

there is a posibility that the luggage trick was fake because there was a pause between 1:16 and 1:17. there was even a pause in his speech

[@hawkermustang]

I like the hard plastics!

[@KanishQQuotes]

hey Mat please wear half sleeves T shirts I miss your arms, and btw these jeans look really good on you

[@fahmad7194]

Venga is not a looker, but it is spacious though

[@jackgilmour_jones6976]

I've got a 65 plate white venga

[@thepatrioticaudiophile]

this is one cracking little car. even though I don't like kias.

[@gazzxr]

[@derryjs]

Could you all possibly do a review on the kia Cerato koupe 2010?

[@adabracadabra2402]

He's really still the same Mat we know even 9 years ago

[@ddddjjjjable]

where You testing those cars Mat?

[@user-ck6kq8zl2i]

Are the reclining back seats standard or just on certain models or years? So would it be on a 2011 model for instance?

[@L.A.97.]

I love the looks of it. Typical Kia, and as always, and exellent review, Mat! :D They just can't be bad. Keep it up!

[@L.A.97.]

[@TheEPITROCHOID]

DEIM you blocked the audi at the junction! 2:00

[@Maxmotor2008]

Not really. It's give way to the right and he had right of way. Audis have brakes, maybe their owners should try using them..

[@angeleee11]

1st viewer ^_^

[@karelianguy7804]

Не хрена не понял

[@davidheaven9885]

The reviewer only looks fresh out of school and comes across as a bit of a prat. He expects a 1.4 diesel to be quick! Side winds affect all vehicles. A very biased and poor review.

[@00kirbyd]

modern cars don't suit red.

[@angeleee11]

terrible car though :P
