Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

T-Cross offers just enough over a Polo to make it worth thinking about.

Pros
Spacious and agreeable to drive
Different to a Polo,
Refined enough

Cons
Less refined and more expensive than the car it’s based on.
Low quality interior

The VW T-Cross is a compact yet roomy SUV which comes with loads of standard equipment. It doesn’t look as dramatic or feel quite as comfortable as some alternatives.

Pros
Big boot
Lots of passenger space
Loads of standard equipment

Cons
Noisy at speed
Materials feel a bit cheap
Alternatives look more exciting

By:

The Volkswagen T-Cross is one of the class leaders in the small SUV sector.

PROS

Spacious
Well-equipped
Desirable badge

CONS

Expensive top models
Quicker rivals
No hybrid model

The EQB is an all-new model for the Mercedes-Benz lineup and should be on sale in North America sometime this summer.

Pros
Practical interior,
brisk acceleration with upgraded powertrain,
nicely-trimmed interior.

Cons
Third row isn't very roomy,
battery takes up some cargo space,
fussy infotainment system.

By:

In an increasingly crowded field of electric crossovers, the boxy 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQB offers something refreshingly against-the-grain.

Pros
Just-right shape bridges boxy and aero
Quiet, comfortable ride
Available third-row seat
Sliding second-row seat
No sci-fi EV gimmickry

Cons
Premium price
Lower range than most rivals
Third row is tiny
Infotainment screens’ learning curve
Top active safety costs extra
