PROS Modern design, lively engines, plenty of kit
CONS Interior quality, noisy diesel, light steering
The Suzuki Vitara is a rugged-looking family SUV that drives well and has plenty of storage space, but it’s let down by a cheap-feeling interior
Pros Surprisingly fun to drive Decent rear passenger space Well equipped
Cons Cheap interior materials Noisy at speed Top-spec models too expensive
Pros Engine torque Quiet and refined at speed Great spec and value
Cons No spare wheel
The Stonic looks quite serious despite the colorful accents – it’s for people who think that rainbow-coloured socks are the most outrageous thing they can wear
Pros Seven-year warranty Easy-to-use interior Easy to drive
Cons Noisy 1.6-litre diesel engine Interior feels cut price Tight in the back for passengers
Better to drive than most other small crossovers, but similarly flawed overall.
Pros Stylish to look at and agile around tow
Cons Kia sells more practical cars for less money
