Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

PROS
Unmistakeable looks,
great comfort,
agreeable electric version

CONS
You can't get a quick one.
But it wouldn't work anyway

By: 
topgear.com

The Citroën C4 is very temptingly priced for a coupé SUV, while comfort and refinement also impress. You do pay for its cushiness with roly-poly handling, though, and there are more practical options.

PROS
Comfortable ride
Little wind or road noise
Well priced

CONS
Body lean in bends
Boot is on the small side
No alarm on entry-level model

By: 
whatcar.com

PROS
Ride comfort and general quietness
Eager and efficient engines
Spacious, minimalist interior

CONS
Go elsewhere if you want sportiness
No hybrid models available
Divisive styling won't universally appeal

By: 
parkers.co.uk

Concentrates on what matters in a small SUV - looking and feeling different to a hatch.

Pros
Good powertrains,
electric version,
unusual looks inside and out

Cons
A bit softer than rivals in the bends,
can get pricey

By: 
topgear.com

The DS 3 Crossback turn heads and has an interior that’ll impress. However, plenty of alternatives are more intuitive to use, bigger inside and come with larger boots.

Pros
Stylish interior
Comfy over bumps
Lots of personalisation options

Cons
Fiddly interior buttons
Alternatives are cheaper…
… and more practical
