Though it’s a direct rival to the Nissan Kicks, the Hyundai Venue actually sells for a few hundred dollars less. And it did come with a manual gearbox, at least until this year. The pocket crossover says goodbye to its manual transmission in 2023.

Unlike Kia, the Hyundai brand walked away from the subcompact car segment a few years ago. The brand's entry point is thus more expensive than in the past, when Hyundai still marketed the Accent.
