Can you recommend a small crossover?
I am looking to buy a small crossover. A Renault Captur looks the best bet, but I can't decide between petrol or diesel.
Q1. On the basis of likely future legislation would a petrol be best?
Q2. Is the 0.9 powerful enough on a motorway with 4 adults?
Q3. Is there a better alternative on the market?

1. Yes.
2. Yes, but the 1.2TCe 120 would be better if it came with a manual box.
3. Peugeot 2008 gets the 1.2 Puretech 110 and 130 later this year. Citroen Cactus 1.2 Puretech 110 is an alternative. New Honda HR-V and Mazda CX-3 coming. (I saw a new HR-V on the road yesterday in Thailand.)
