Which small crossover do you recommend?

Which small petrol crossover do you recommend - FIAT 500X, Renault Captur or Peugeot 2008?

Asked on 26 May 2015 by turnerrf

Answered by Honest John

The 2008 has at last got Peugeot's new 1.2 Puretech engine, but only in 110PS/205Nm form with a rather sloppy five-speed transmission. The Captur should by now be available with Renault's 120PS 1.2TCe engine and a manual box. With the Fiat, the only serious options are the 1.6 and 2.0 Multijet diesels, assuming you do enough miles to justify a diesel.
