Although the car industry buzzword right now is ‘crossovers’, the humble hatchback continues to represent a huge proportion of sales, particularly for family buyers.

The Citroen C4 is fairly popular in this segment, but now the French firm has released a new one that bridges the gap between traditional hatchbacks and SUVs that it hopes will be a hit with buyers.

So with this in mind, if you’re looking for a hatchback, what are your options? Here are the best choices on sale right now.

The latest version of this quirky hatchback just went on sale this week, and we recently got behind the wheel. If you’re looking for a spacious, comfortable family car then the new C4 makes a great case for itself.

What’s more, it’s available with petrol, diesel and electric powertrains, so whatever distances you drive each day there’s an engine for you.
