Best in class9/10Land RoverDiscovery Sport£29,575 – £51,345The best car in its class. New engine is so good, it earns it an extra point
8/10MazdaCX-5£24,535 – £34,625The CX-5 is a cracking SUV that really will exceed your expectations. Well worth a look.
8/10HyundaiTucson£23,585 – £34,060Spacious and stylish addition to the growing ranks of school run specials
8/10SkodaKaroq£21,035 – £32,185The Karoq might have lost its predecessor’s personality, but on every other front it’s a better car than the one it replaces
7/10HondaCR-V£23,490 – £35,595All-new CR-V is a big step up. Not perfect, but a worthy rival to the best in this class
7/10FordKuga£22,340 – £34,740The new Kuga is safer and roomier than before. Less fun, but a better family car
7/10KiaSportage£19,735 – £33,660Facelifted Sportage gains mild hybrid diesel tech, but it’s not enough to radically alter the class landscape
7/10HyundaiSanta Fe£32,540 – £39,390Has the makings of a great family car, if lacking a little excitement
7/10Fiat500X£15,485 – £25,185Not the most utilitarian choice, but this is exactly what buyers want from a Fiat crossover.
7/10MitsubishiEclipse Cross£20,720 – £27,595The Eclipse Cross is a striking and mostly successful Qashqai rival
7/10HyundaiKona£16,530 – £36,240Go ahead if you like the look of it. If you don't, endless rivals are about as good.
6/10NissanX-Trail£20,600 – £36,490A good, solid SUV. Lots of space, but competitors have caught and passed in some areas
5/10MitsubishiOutlander£24,799 – £45,545If you don't get excited by driving, perfectly acceptable. But there should be something more to it than that, no?
4/10SubaruXV£21,940 – £27,940The Subaru XV can manage more than many of its competitors off-road, but it's let down by its engine and gearbox
