Top Gear's top five crossovers
After the looks of an SUV, but with the running costs of a family hatch? Step this way
Nissan Qashqai
Quite good at most everything it attempts. But then, Nissan was the one that started this whole crossover thing, so it’d better be.
£24,980, 130bhp, 236lb ft, 0-62mph in 9.9secs, VMax 118mph, 64.2mpg, 115g/km CO2

Based on the same platform as the Qashqai, with an equally bewildering name. Big bigger, bit cheaper, but more Renault-y. Not sure if that’s a good thing.
£22,795, 130bhp, 236lb ft, 0-62mph in 9.9secs, VMax 118mph, 65.7mpg, 113g/km CO2
Mazda CX-3
A genuinely interesting little crossover. This is the only time those words will appear in the same sentence as one another. Handles well, too.
£21,895, 105bhp, 199lb ft, 0-62mph in 10.1secs, VMax 110mph, 70.6mpg, 105g/km CO2

New-age Hyundai at its best, ix35 replacement is stylish – comparatively – spacious and refined enough to compete with the class heavyweights.
£24,195, 136bhp, 275lb ft, 0-62mph in 10.6secs, VMax 116mph, 58.9mpg, 127g/km CO2
Skoda Yeti
Skoda’s most interesting car. Loses out to the others simply because it’s getting a bit old now, but comfort, quality and dynamics are up there with the best.
£19,850, 110bhp, 184lb ft, 0-62mph in 11.6secs, VMax 111mph, 62.8mpg, 118g/km CO2
