Small SUV car reviews

Not without niggles, but it's cheap enough that buyers might take a punt anyway

The Nissan Kicks is a stylish, youthful crossover that’s decently priced for what it brings to the table

The Austral is well trimmed, feels high tech, and uses little fuel. If you want a hybrid crossover, it's a good choice

Fancy a slice of sensible Skoda-ness but put off by the Enyaq’s size? The Elroq is for you

The Volvo EX30 is a likeable and admirable car, unless you’re sat in the back of it or lost in the labyrinth that is the screen

The styling is down to taste, but anyone put off will be missing out on one of the best-realised sporty EV crossovers around

The R4 has a sense of fun in both its looks and its driving, and feels premium. This is a very, very good value car

Handsome, luxurious and with the reassurance of Volvo's reputation for safety. What's not to like?

Volvo's baby SUV does a decent job of being slightly different but entirely acceptable

Not all that novel, but at least the Ariya is well equipped and the interior will win you over

Some cars make you wonder if the development work was ever finished; for the Haval Jolion Pro, it’s more ‘did they bother at all?’

The Alfa Junior is a lot of fun in Veloce form… just know the range means you’ll be having that fun briefly

It feels like a premium car, and it's very practical. But it'll need major software updates before we start to like driving it

The #5 is better to drive than you might expect, but that still doesn’t mean you need over 600bhp. Get the one with the longest range

Overpriced and under-talented… please buy something – anything – other than this

It looks the part and it's fun to drive, but Abarth’s 600e can't escape its roots

The Euro-spec, fifth-gen Sportage strikes a neat balance between practicality and style. Like the looks? You'll be a fan

Audi’s best-selling model is back for a third generation, but we miss the old interior

Y’know the latest Clio, yeah? Like that. But bigger. Roomier. And more expensive

Does most of the everyday stuff nicely while looking like a bulldog wearing a crash helmet

The Karoq might be slightly dull, but it's eager to please and will slot seamlessly into your life
