As our favourite SUV of the year, it’s only right we talk about the BMW X2. With the sporty heritage of BMW clear to see in the design and how it drives, the X2 is one of the best small SUVs available due to its impressive level of equipment and overall finish that is likely to draw many customers in. It offers lots of space for a car of its size and also provides a series of cheap-to-run powertrains that will give you the performance for getting around with ease.

As the replacement for the quirky Yeti, the Karoq had a hard act to live up to. But since its introduction towards the end of 2017, it has been an impressive addition to the Skoda line-up — packing most of the features you would find in the larger Kodiaq and a series of well-performing engines to get you on your way. It can also be fitted with high-end equipment, with features such as adaptive cruise control, large infotainment displays and an interactive instrument display.

Renault Captur

The smallest SUV option from Renault is one that provides good quality from the base Play spec and doesn’t cost that much either – £15,300. Offered with two-tone bodywork, stylish alloys and plenty of kit, the Captur can also be fitted with a series of high-end safety systems, including hands-free parking, blind spot warning, hill start assist and emergency brake assist. More like a hatchback than anything, the Captur is great for urban drivers.

Nissan Juke

The compact crossover is a stand-out alternative to other small SUVs, as it looks more like a built-up hatchback and looks rather sleek compared to others. With a multitude of assistance systems, the NissanConnect infotainment setup and an adaptable interior, the Juke can be an excellent small SUV option as it comes with a well-balanced chassis and good engines to get you around.
