I'm really into tiny cars right now. I believe the proper term is subcompact car. I've driven a 2010 Honda Fit and a 2023 Kia Picanto, both as rentals. I liked the way they drive, and now I really want one myself.

I want one that's reliable (or as reliable as they can be). I plan on buying one new, so a 2025 or 2026 model. I obviously can't buy a new Honda Fit, as they don't make them for the North American market anymore. I'm not totally married to the idea of EVs, so fossil fuels are not only okay, but expected & encouraged.
With that in mind, what would you recommend?
