Pros Flexible, pragmatic interior Well-specified equipment list Goldilocks size for inner-urban use
Cons Outdated material and build quality Drivetrain really lacks verve NVH and wind noise
Pros Phone integration; spacious interior; five-year warranty.
Cons Tyre noise.

Cons Not game changing Not very stylish Plasticky interior

Pros More all-terrain capabilities than your typical SUV Smart features for both adventures and everyday use Lots of customization options
