Smaller C-MAX

Some time ago you recommended the Ford C-MAX for ease of access and comfort of ride. We are looking to replace our C-MAX and would be looking for something a bit smaller but with the same characteristics. What would you recommend?

Or a KIA Venga or a Hyundai ix20, that are already widely available.
