Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Renault Captur 2020 good-looking, refined and comfy.

Pros
Higher-quality feel than the old Captur.
Actually rather handsome,
and plenty roomy enough.

Cons
Laggy,
fiddly infotainment.
Too much wind noise

By: 
topgear.com

The Renault Captur is one of the crossovers to beat, thanks to low running costs and plenty of style.

Pros
Easy to drive
Sliding rear bench
Good value

Cons
Untested reliability
Imprecise gearbox
Digital dials cost extra

By:

The Renault Captur looks great, has a spacious, high-quality cabin and a big boot. Its infotainment can frustrate, though, and there are more comfortable small SUVs around town.

Pros
Space and practicality
Large boot
Efficient engines

Cons
Infotainment system
Low speed comfort
Safety tech reserved for top trim

The 2021 Kia Sorento crossover finds a new look but the same mission: it’s the smaller hauler compared to the Telluride.

PROS
Better style
Available hybrid powertrains
Bigger interior
Telluride’s looks

CONS
What’s with the door tooth?
Is the second row more comfortable?
Not appreciably bigger

By:

The all-new Sorento is expected to make its debut at the Geneva auto show in March. Disguised and undisguised spy photos and several official images of the Kia have given us a pretty good idea of what to expect from the redesigned mid-size crossover. Its boxier proportions and bolder styling mark a stark departure from the curvier and softer appearance of the current Sorento. The Korean automaker has also said that the next-gen model will ride on an all-new platform that helps make it bigger inside and out. It will also feature a hybrid powertrain as well as an eventual plug-in variant.
