  3.9/5

  The Mercedes-Benz B-Class has long been a mainstay in the compact segment, offering premium comfort and practicality since its introduction in 2005.

This latest B-Class continues to focus on family-friendly usability, with a spacious cabin, flexible seating arrangements, and a versatile boot.

  Jeep Renegade

  3.5/5

  The Renegade has been a hugely successful car for Jeep, bringing the brand into the compact SUV market where it has won the affections of many buyers for its rugged appearance, trademark seven-slot grille and urban-friendly performance. It stands out, because in this segment of the market there are very few cars with genuine character and the Renegade has it in spades. Since its debut in 2014, the Renegade has evolved to offer improved technology, enhanced efficiency, and a broader range of powertrains, including electrified plug-in hybrid variants.

  Volkswagen T-Cross

  3.6/5

  Volkswagen’s T-Cross may be the smallest car in the firm’s SUV line-up, but it aims to punch well above its weight thanks to a large boot and a boxy design which brings more interior space. Equipped with a range of efficient petrol engines, the T-Cross may miss out on any form of electrification, but it still does well in terms of efficiency.

  Audi A5

  4.0/5

  As its name suggests, the A5 has traditionally occupied the space between the A4 and A6 and been offered in coupe, convertible and five-door coupe Sportback guises. But that changed in 2024, as Audi repositioned it as a BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class competitor, thereby effectively replacing both the A4 Saloon and Avant (estate) and the existing A5 Sportback. Available as a five-door hatchback (although it wears the Saloon name) and as an estate (Avant), the A5 sticks to traditional petrol and diesel power, allowing models like the larger A6 e-tron to focus on offering pure-electric power in the executive car segment.

  Dacia Duster

  4.0/5

  The Dacia Duster has been one of the most rugged, no-nonsense and best-value SUVs available in the UK. Traditionally it has had a simple blend of rugged mechanicals, and has grown a loyal following in Britain. But, more recently, the Duster has grown into a more desirable car with better technology and sharper styling. While it isn't as affordable as the first Dusters that arrived in the UK, the current model is an easier car to live with and is more refined, while still sticking true to its value-orientated roots. It's an excellent choice for families who want a sensible SUV that can easily handle family life.

  BMW 1 Series

  4.2/5

  The BMW 1 Series came into existence in 2004, as a rear-wheel-drive premium hatchback that was quintessentially BMW. Twenty years on, the fourth-generation 1 Series promises to replicate the same. Featuring a new design, more tech and mild-hybrid powertrains, the 2026 1 Series takes its fight closer to the Audi A3 and the Mercedes-Benz A Class. We road tested a 123 xDrive to see how it all adds up in real.
