Why is the Vauxhall Crossland X rated worse than the Peugeot 2008?
If these two cars are essentially the same and built on the same line at the factory, why does the Crossland have a poor handling report while the 2008 does not?

The Vauxhall Crossland X is set up with a focus on comfort while the Peugeot 2008 is a bit sportier. That means the Crossland X is quite soft, soaking up bumps in the road well but rolling a bit more in the corners. The Peugeot 2008, with its small steering wheel and firmer suspension, feels more agile.

Excellent 1.2-litre PureTech petrol engine, more spacious and practical than the 208, post-facelift version looks smart.

Practical inside with lots of space and a good-sized boot. Impressive engines shared with the Peugeot 2008. All models get a touchscreen system and climate control. More stylish from 2021.
