Cons
Below-average cargo space

The 2021 Mazda CX-3 is an agile crossover with quick acceleration and good fuel economy, but it lacks rear passenger space and has a limited cargo hold. This vehicle does not have an overall score or ranking because it has not been evaluated for predicted reliability.

Pros
Athletic handling
Punchy acceleration
Upscale interior
Long list of standard safety features

Cons
Snug rear seat
Engine struggles at highway speeds
Small cargo space

Mazda has made no changes to its smallest SUV for 2021, as the CX-3 enters the new model year exactly as it was in 2020. Mazda has announced that 2021 will be the final model year for the CX-3.

Pros
Spunky driving dynamics,
fuel-efficient powertrain,
cheeky exterior styling.

Cons
Tight rear seat and cargo space,
unrefined four-cylinder engine,
flinty ride.

The 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport's #13 ranking is based on its score within the Subcompact SUVs category. Currently the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport has a score of 6.8 out of 10, which is based on our evaluation of 71 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Good amount of cargo space
Straightforward infotainment controls
Lengthy warranty

Cons
Firm ride
Ponderous handling
Sluggish base engine
Subpar fuel economy

For 2021 Newly standard features, including forward collision mitigation and lane departure warning, LE trim level replaces the SP trim, Black Edition model no longer available.

Pros
Well equipped for the price
Excellent warranty coverage

Cons
The ride is rough over bumpy roads
Many interior materials look and feel cheap
Transmission is aggravatingly slow to respond
Raucous drone while accelerating, especially with 2.0-liter engine

By:

After the previous model year underwent a transformative facelift, the 2021 Outlander Sport receives a handful of new features. All models now have automatic high-beams, forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, and lane-departure warning. The base model also now has LED fog lights, rain-sensing windshield wipers, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. The LE trim gains black 18-inch wheels, a black grille and door mirrors, and a Limited Edition badge. Inside, the upholstery now has red contrast stitching.

Pros
Available all-wheel drive,
standard active-safety features,
noteworthy powertrain warranty.

Cons
Lacks refinement,
bargain-basement interior,
pricier than many nicer alternatives.
