  • Just like the families that made them popular, “compact” SUVs have grown up.
    They’ve grown up so much in fact, that the likes of the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Subaru Forester are now all de facto replacements for the mid-sized sedans of yore. The growth spurt has left a vacuum in the class below, as brands scrambled to fill the small SUV segment. So, stepping down a size, we’ve assembled this massive 11-SUV group to see which one fills that void the best.

    I’m still choose Mitsubishi, may not be the most modern suv but it’s super reliable and the S-AWC is amazing not to mention one of the best warranty

    Too bad the Suzuki SX4 isn't sold in the US. IMHO, it would win hands down on bang for the buck practicality and value. I've got one nearing 5 years old now, having some 65,000km on the clock, and haven't had any issues with it.

    Shopping this class, you'll find RUclips reviews seem to deliver 'safe' reviews. They can't really dig or bash as it may insult the OEM and/or respective owners. They can't gush too much, or they come off biased. This review is outside the norm. The ratings and comments were driver and feature based not charts and graphs from Consumer Reports. Thing is... owner reviews can be terrible harping over dual-zone HVAC, ventilated seats, or other stupid stuff. Stick with Consumer Reports as the Defacto word, and you may miss out on a sweet ride. That's what's different. Drivers not dolts. Thanks guys.

    I’d take the turbo Honda Civic Hatchback over alll of these to be honest. If I had to pick one of these SUVs, it would be the Mazda if it had IRS, but it doesn’t. Therefore my choice would be the Seltos as it’s a perfect blend for an everyday driver. The Corolla Cross and Crosstrek are already dated and blah to drive even in this pack

    Your review disagrees with what drivers-owners found out: the Japanese top cars are rulling through reliability and low TCO (Total Cost of Ownership), the German cars are clunkers and the Koreans are just slightly over Germans, but far below the Japanese best cars.

    Taos is among the LEAST realiable models according to consumerreports, among the models with the LEAST satisfied owners according to consumerreports and has some of the worst owners ratings on Edmunds, avoid VW.

    • @g-mo961

      And as an owner of said 'least reliable' they are flat wrong. Dual shaft gearbox, IRS, 4-Motion AWD with electronic locker, auto hill descent, best cargo in a sophisticated driver for handling and zip. All that and 35+ MPG. Yeah, a real junk wagon from the Audi/Porsche group. Look at TAOS owner forums not Consumer Reports. Avoid any review about reviews. Read what's up on real owner sites.

    • @christopherdouglas8471
      @christopherdouglas8471 19 дней назад +1

      @@g-mo961 Just a couple of points. Firstly, DSG stands for Direct Shift Gearbox, not Dual Shaft Gearbox. Small point. Secondly, Consumer Reports data comes directly from real Taos owner’s input. That is the source of the ratings. Owner forums are worth looking at, but to be fair, Consumer Reports have been accepted as a legitimate source of reliability data and problem areas, no matter the car or truck, for many years. Also, just as a point of clarification, the Taos comes from the Volkswagen Group, not Audi/Porsche. Audi’s Q3 would be their closest to equivalent model.
