Whether you’re a young professional with binders to transport during the week and musical instruments on the weekend, or a growing family that wants space for people and stuff, hatchbacks are great opportunities to enjoy the benefits of maximum cargo space without sacrificing the smooth ride and efficiency of a standard car. Compact hatchbacks go the extra mile – giving you the freedom to enjoy hauling a surprising number of things without breaking your bank or taking you to the gas station twice a week to fill up.

The Kia Forte5 is widely regarded as one of the best compact hatchback cars in the game. Not only does the Kia Forte5 give you Kia’s unique and European-inspired style, but it also gives you the feature-packed, driver-focused experience for which Kia is famous. Going up against the five-door Forte5 is Volkswagen’s compact hatchback, the Golf.
