The Karl is Opel’s back-to-basics 5-door city car. It is smaller than the Corsa, but does without the glitz and glam of the infinitely customisable 3-door Adam. For a small car, the Karl doesn’t feel too cramped inside and there are three seats in the back and winders for the rear windows, which you won’t find in every car in this class. So already Karl is looking like a more substantial car than some of its rivals. The boot is typical of a city car in that it’s narrow and at 206 litres, it’s not the best in class for space, but it’s not the worst either. There is just one engine for the Karl and that’s Opel’s new 1.0-litre three cylinder petrol engine. Here it does without a turbo and produces 75bhp in its naturally aspirated state. It feels really nippy around town, and out on bigger roads there’s no problem maintaining cruising speeds. It’s slow enough to get there, but that’s characteristic of all these small non-turbo 1.0-litre engines, and within the city car segment, the Karl has one of the more powerful 1.0-litres with that 75bhp. In town and city, Karl feels gloriously light and agile. Out of the city, Karl doesn’t feel like it’s going to disintegrate at the first whiff of motorway; it feels solid and planted, and easy to control. The only issue is a bit of road noise at high speed. On rural roads, Karl has got good road-holding ability through the corners and the steering communicates quite well what the front wheels are doing. The Karl is anything but dull to drive. The 1.0-litre (75bhp) engine in the Karl returns up to 63mpg

The 500 has been an unprecedented success for Fiat. The 500C shares its key componentry with the tin-top version so you get the 1.4 petrol with 100bhp, five-speed manual boxes. Fiat is quick to point out that the cabrio enjoys higher levels of standard spec, with seven airbags, central locking, unique alloys, a decent six-speaker audio system and air-con on all models. And its internal and external dimensions mirror those of the standard 500, save the 182-litre boot, which is now three whole litres smaller. Fiat opted for the sliding fabric roof rather than a full pillarless convertible or folding metal hard-top for two reasons – firstly, it created a neat and exploitable historic link with the original 500 of 1957 which started life as a convertible first, with a tin-top following three years later; and secondly it cut development time and saved on engineering costs, allowing Fiat to equip the cabrio with the same active and passive safety features of the hatch which posts a full five-star Euro NCAP rating. Brilliantly, in a word. Refinement levels are pretty good, roof up or down. Punch the retract button and the roof slides silently back to a halfway-house position and opens up a vast sunroof. Hit the button again and the whole caboodle drops down neatly behind the rear seats, but with the fabric folded so that the third brake light is still visible. Clever. And you can do this at speeds up to 37mph.
You don’t have to fanny about with closing the roof to get into the boot either – touch the boot latch with the roof fully retracted and it slides forwards so you can open the boot on its trick hinges. With the roof fully retracted, the cabin remains virtually buffet free up to motorway speeds and with it closed the two-layer fabric does a fine job of sealing out road and wind noise. The only drawback is it makes roof-down reversing a nightmare – the combination of thick C-pillars and stack roof make the optional reversing sensors a must-have.
