Small SUVs launch in abundance but thanks to electric power and great interior tech, this is among the most interesting.
Pros Fancy dials, Great petrol engines and a decent EV
Cons Firm (ish) ride, Pricey if you tick too many boxes
The Peugeot 2008 is an SUV you can buy with your heart and your head. It’s cheap to run, easy to drive and has a big boot but, alas, the back seats aren’t that spacious.
Pros Stylish design 3D infotainment display Fun and cheap to run
Cons Noisy diesel Tight back seats Sluggish automatic gearbox
The e-2008 has a great interior that offers a decent amount of space, but the car’s appeal is limited by its high list price and disappointing battery range compared with those of the best rivals.
Pros Refined interior Relatively spacious Impressive build quality
Cons Expensive Rivals have longer range Firm ride
For 2019, the QX30 merely adds new option packages for the Luxe model. These include the Navigation package with Infiniti's InTouch services that allow users to unlock and lock the doors and schedule maintenance remotely using a smartphone app, and the 19-inch Wheel package that adds—you guessed it—19-inch Gun Metallic wheels rolling on run-flat summer tires. Otherwise, the QX30 lineup carries over unchanged.
Pros Concept-car styling, nicely crafted interior, Sport model truly feels sporty.
Cons Subpar fuel economy, cramped cabin, fully loaded versions are pricey.

PROS Strong acceleration and sharp handling High-quality interior materials Powerful and confident brakes Interior controls are easy to locate and use
CONS Less usable cargo space than its competitors Interior quarters are cramped, especially for rear passengers Drive modes are either laggy or frenetic Ride comfort is compromised by the sporty suspension
The 2019 Infiniti QX30 stands out with style and sprightliness but makes compromises in interior space.
Pros Swoopy style Upscale interior Spry handling Available all-wheel drive
Cons Limited interior space Inconsistent throttle Style over practicality Expensive
