Top 5 Hatchback Deals for Winter 2020

The Fiesta is, unsurprisingly, the most popular car of 2020 thus far. As of the end of October Ford have sold 43,281 models of the Fiesta this year and we can’t see any competitors closing that gap within the next few weeks before the end of the year. The Fiesta fiesta has continued with the introduction of Ford mild-hybrid technology, which just so happens to be available on their current promotion. Until the 31st of December, you can get a brand new Ford Fiesta Trend Ecoboost 5-door with mild hybrid technology from as little as £175 per month on a 3 year Ford Options deal. This deal demands a £5,333 customer deposit but comes with 0% APR and a £1,000 deposit allowance when financed with Ford Credit. 0% APR deals will be hard to find over the next 6 to 12 months so if you’re thinking of getting behind the wheel of a new hatchback with low monthly payments and zero interest, now is your chance!

The MINI has been another solid performer in terms of sales despite the obvious adversity in 2020. Up until the end of 2020 MINI had managed to shift 25,841 MINI hatchbacks - outselling the Volkswagen Polo by almost 2,000 units. Hot property, we’re sure you’ll agree. The MINI is now available in more variants, shapes and sizes than ever before with a healthy range of engines and spec’s to ensure that there is a perfect MINI for you. The best deal available comes directly from MINI themselves on their 3-door ‘One Classic’. Right now you can get this car for as little as £190 per month with an initial rental, or if you’d prefer the flexibility of the 5-door then that is just £205 with the same initial rental. MINIs are a premium hatchback and they are generally quite expensive when compared to some alternatives, but at these prices, the MINI has never been more accessible.

Think of the Skoda Fabia from a more playful version of the Volkswagen Polo that still benefits from the same running costs, same practicality benefits and same level of build quality. The Skoda brand has come on leaps and bounds in the past 5 to 10 years but thankfully they still represent exceptional value when compared to their mechanically identical Volkswagen siblings. Like the Fabia, for example, which is now available with 0% APR and with prices starting from just £189 per month on a 4 year deal with 10,000 miles per year. This deal is not only low on interest, it’s low on deposit too. Skoda wants just £2,862.20 for the down payment and then they’ll contribute a further £750 to the deal themselves. buyer s also get the option for a service plan for just £99 and all sales come with a 3-year unlimited mileage roadside assistance package, so you won’t be left alone at the roadside in the unlikely circumstances that something goes wrong with your new Fabia. 

If you’re looking for something fun, fashionable and frugal then you’ll do well to find a better offering than the brand new C3 from Citroen which is now available on a Personal Lease for just £179 per month with an advance rental of £1,701 with Citroen contributing a further £2,500 to the deposit of any deal. How about that for value? If you wanted a bit more spec then the mid-level ‘Flair’ is available from £199 per month with a reduced advanced rental of just £1,326. The C3 is a car that growing families can get along with. From the protective rubber side panels derived from the C4 Cactus to the two-tone paintwork. This is a playful car that is purpose-built to take on whatever family life throws at it. The C3 is also nice and easy to drive with light and soft steering and the cabin is more than spacious enough for 2 adults and 3 children. There are 300 litres of boot space too, which is great for a hatchback of this size.

Introducing the brand spanking new Fiat 500 Hybrid. This is a car that is not only more efficient and more sustainable, the 500 Hybrid also offers a more refined and relaxing driving experience when compared to the regularly powered 500. This is a fully self-contained hybrid, so it will charge itself as you pootle around town and doesn’t need to be plugged in each night. If you’re looking for a seamless step into the world of hybrid motoring then this is a good bet. Right now Fiat is offering great deals on their well-specced ‘launch edition’ model but they’re also offering 12 months of Job Loss Protection with new purchases. This means that if you lose your job within 12 months of purchasing a new 500 hybrid on a Fiat PCP deal, your scheduled payments can be waived for up to 7 months - which is rather generous. The 500 hybrid is available right now with prices starting from as little as £189 per month with a £189 deposit, which is topped up by a further £1,000 by the Fiat dealer.
