Cons Not that exciting to drive So-so practicality Top-spec models are
The new Peugeot 5008 represents an oh-so-Gallic salvo in the fight for buyers in the medium-to-large SUV segment. With its sharp design, sharper pricing and extensive equipment list, is it enough to lure buyers away from more mainstream models?
Pros Gorgeous interior that oozes premium Extensive array of included features Sharp styling Comfortable ride Spacious boot Oodles of torque from the 2.0-litre diesel
Cons Third row is best saved for short trips 1.6-litre petrol is not the punchiest unit Brand perception
Pros 6,000-pound towing capacity near the top of the class Comfortable and quiet highway ride Spacious cabin
Cons The front seats feel a bit stiff The engine can be sluggish to respond Less cargo space than some rivals
Pros Upscale, airy interior Many standard tech and safety features Pleasant driving dynamics
Cons Above-average starting price
Completely new for 2022, the Pathfinder sheds the frumpy design of the 2020 model in favor of a rugged and modern look. Expect to see the new Pathfinder in Nissan dealerships in summer 2021.
Pros Quiet cabin, impressive towing capacity, plentiful storage cubbies and bins.
Cons Lackluster handling, numb steering, loaded model costs more than Telluride but isn't quite as nice.
