The MG GS is the brand’s first SUV, built to rival the Nissan Qashqai, Renault Kadjar and Vauxhall Mokka X. The MG costs less than all those models and is also a little bigger so, in terms of value for money, it’s off to a flying start.
Pros Decent looks Punchy engine Low price
Cons Cheap feeling cabin Firm ride Small boot
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
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
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
