Best Small SUV: The 11 SUV Mega Comparison
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.

Ambitious job, assembling 11 of them! Good evaluation fellas.
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
Amazing review guys!
Thanks for the kind words
Each of these cars could be broken down into a 60 second short for those looking for a particular model. Excellent work, you guys are undersubscribed!
Thank you so much. The shorts is a great idea.
The corolla cross is the best for me .
Great job
In the US the kona has more options than the seltos for the same price
I'd take the corolla cross hybrid if there were any available around me.
Shopping this class, you'll find KZhead 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.
Thanks for the kind words.
I'd take the Eclipse Cross.
how will you rank the toyota cross without the hybrid system?
It would finish lower. That hybrid system really transforms the vehicle.
@@AutoGuide around?
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
Audi q3?.. I think it is the best
You need catchier thumbnails/graphics for these KZhead videos.
It's a car comparison not gen alpha viewbait or a gaming content channel.
@@Javierm0n0 It's a business and visibility matters.

@@Javierm0n0 Even something like "Review" or "Comparison Review" in large font would go a long way to prevent it from getting lost in a subscription feed.
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.
We miss it too
Where is the jeep compass and Nissan kicks and Hyundai venue and Nissan rogue sport and kia niro
Also the Buick envista
You can go looking for them in the trash bin. Why would anyone smart choose an unreliable, high TCO clunker. The podium is owned by Lexus, Toyota and Mazda.
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.
The VW Taos is above a Honda!? What kind of grass are these journalists smoking? According to consumer reviews the VW Taos has the lowest consumer satisfaction rating along with the Kia seltos. I'm beginning to wonder if these journalists are The kind of people who don't actually own their own vehicles but daily drive free press vehicles that we hear so much about.
The Kia Seltos has poor resale value and a garbage turbocharged engine. Interior looks nice though
A Kia? It’s gonna break down at one point or another.
6 year 100k warranty tho
@@womwom6774 they won’t honor it for crap
What isn't??
I've had 3 new, leased hyundai and genesis vehicles over the last 9 years. No major issues but one and they fixed it under warranty without so much as a question and gave me a loaner for the duration of the repair...idk what all this hyundai motor group hate is on the internet. This isn't 1996, mister impala.
The reason the engines and key is a Hyundai is mostly fails because the owners never change the oil
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.
Sadly, I have to agree. VW have great showroom appeal, but then the ownership experience can be troublesome.
I have never had an issue with my VW and it is already a 2020. Just maintenance and new rear brake pads. Otherwise it has been trouble free.
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.
@@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.
