Best cars for city driving ranked by fuel economy, turning circle, compact size and parking ease.
City driving in Australia means stop-start traffic, tight car parks and fuel costs that add up fast. We have ranked every small car, hatchback and compact SUV by what matters most in the city: fuel economy in litres per 100km, turning circle for easy parking, overall dimensions and the number of city-friendly safety aids like AEB and parking sensors. Hybrids dominate this list for good reason.
