If you’re looking for a capable, convenient, and comfortable two- or three-row-crossover conveyance, the Kia Sorento is a solid choice. Once you’ve settled on the Sorento, however, the choices don’t end there. Seating for either five or seven, three engines, and both front- and all-wheel-drive variants mean there’s a Sorento for every taste.

Pros
Competent road manners,

The Peugeot 3008 is a fun-looking SUV with a big boot, stylish interior and decent levels of equipment, but it takes a while to get used to the quirky small steering wheel and high-up instrument cluster

Pros
Stylish inside and out
Big boot
Efficient engines

Cons
No four-wheel-drive option
Entry-level diesel is slow
Oddly positioned instruments

By:

The 3008 would have to be the best Peugeot I’ve driven apart from the 308 and I was rather forlorn to hand back the keys.

Pros
Bold, attractive styling
HUD instrument panel/advanced graphics
Comfortable, luxury interior
Tech features
Dynamic handling
Large panoramic roof
Powered tailgate

Cons
Flat topped steering wheel
No powered seats
