8/10Land RoverDiscovery£46,110 – £68,890The consummate big family SUV. Spectacular off-road, now better on it, but is it just too Range Rover for its own good?
8/10Land RoverDiscovery Sport£43,410An SUV that rightfully ignores sportiness and focuses on comfort, flexibility and downright classiness
7/10VolkswagenCaravelle£41,748 – £58,242Yes, it’s effectively a van with windows. But it’s also magnificent
7/10SeatAlhambra£30,415 – £38,270Seat’s most complete car. It has no real weaknesses – but we just know you’d rather have the VW…
6/10NissanX-Trail£30,235 – £34,260A good, solid SUV. Lots of space, but competitors have caught and passed in some areas
7/10VolkswagenSharan£29,910 – £40,290It’s big, expensive and not especially clever, but it is really, really good at ferrying lots of people about. Really, really quietly.
7/10VolkswagenTouran£27,965 – £34,950Better than the car it replaces, but not interesting, exciting or memorable.
8/10HyundaiTucson£26,505 – £34,965Hyundai's most strident styling yet clothes a car as sensible and well-appointed as you'd hope
8/10HyundaiTucson (2015-2020)£26,505 – £34,965Spacious and stylish addition to the growing ranks of school run specials
7/10NissanQashqai£26,250 – £31,935One of Britain’s best-selling cars, the Qashqai is quiety, comfy and homemade, too
7/10MazdaCX-5£26,135 – £37,725A good-looking small SUV that drives rather well. Worth considering if you're in the market
8/10Hyundaii40 Tourer£23,675 – £29,865Another convincing effort from Hyundai and a tempting alternative to the more obvious Mondeo.
7/10BMW1 Series£22,835 – £23,365BMW's switch from RWD to FWD for the new hatch is no bad thing. This new 1 Series is a good car from the bottom up.
Editor’s choice9/10BMWM135i (2012-2019)£22,835 – £23,365BMW performance hatch that is also a bit of a bargain. It's not quite a 1M, but it's close.
7/10FordKuga£22,790 – £37,730The new Kuga is safer and roomier than before. Less fun, but a better family car
7/10Hyundaii40£22,415 – £28,615Hyundai arrives to worry the Ford Mondeo – and the impressive i40 certainly does that.
8/10CitroenC4 Cactus£21,535 – £23,880Citroen's Fiat Panda - character over driving thrills, but none the worse for that.
6/10CitroenC4 Cactus£21,535 – £23,880While still a comfy, useful hatchback, the C4 Cactus's move mainstream has taken away its class hero status
7/10RenaultKadjar£20,870 – £30,810Renault’s Qashqai rival is conveniently a rebodied… Qashqai. A fine appliance for family transport
7/10KiaSportage£20,085 – £34,765Facelifted Sportage gains mild hybrid diesel tech, but it’s not enough to radically alter the class landscape
