The 2018 Hyundai Tucson puts service ahead of sizzle, and caps it with an excellent warranty.
Pros A simple but appealing look Refined ride A quiet cockpit Reasonable fuel economy Excellent warranty coverage
Cons Chintzy SE trim Smaller cargo area than in rivals Limited’s the only model for top tech
The 2018 Hyundai Tucson ranked #7 in Compact SUVs. Currently the Hyundai Tucson has a score of 8.4 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 27 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.
Pros Excellent crash test scores Longer warranty than most Comfortable and quiet
Cons Mediocre cabin materials in lower trim levels Base engine provides slow acceleration
We like the Value trim level. It lives up to its name by giving you a huge number of desirable features for an agreeable price. Its turbocharged engine also produces a pleasing amount of power. We also think that heated seats and the additional stain-resistant cloth make the absence of leather upholstery just fine.
PROS Lots of features for the money Top safety scores Optional turbocharged engine delivers peppy acceleration Comfortable ride on rough roads
CONS Some disappointing interior pieces Some advanced driver safety aids only available on top trim Less cargo space than top rivals Slow acceleration with base engine
The Mitsubishi ASX doesn’t get the pulse racing, and its size makes it better for inner-urban use than open road touring. Because fuel economy can suffer if the engine is required to work too hard, it’s also better suited to terrain where engine performance is less of an issue.
Pros Flexible, pragmatic interior Well-specified equipment list Goldilocks size for inner-urban use
Cons Outdated material and build quality Drivetrain really lacks verve NVH and wind noise
Pros Phone integration; spacious interior; five-year warranty.
Cons Tyre noise.
The Mitsubishi ASX is a compact SUV that is, well, a little bit boring – something that matters in a class full of funky rivals such as the Renault Captur, Peugeot 2008 and Honda HR-V.
Pros Low running costs Roomy interior Decent levels of kit
Cons Not game changing Not very stylish Plasticky interior
