Overview

Good looking, talented family hatchbacks that are functional but fun. Three­door Bravo has a sporty character and holds its value better on the used market. Brava is the practical choice for families, with five­door access and more room in the back. Both are modern and fairly reliable, but prices are surprisingly affordable. The range was improved and re-badged in early 1999, knocking the used value of earlier cars hard.
