Ideal A/B-class car. It has the price of a good A-class but the size and presence of a B-segment car. The annoying thing is that only a bike rack is allowed on the towbar (on my i10 from 2020 — the 2nd generation already after 2015). I’m still waiting for an iX10 version: a bit taller but otherwise the same.

Hyundai Tucson

Hyundai Tucson marries bold, sculpted looks with a clever, roomy cabin that feels smarter than its price tag suggests. It's composed on the road, easy to live with day-to-day, and a sensible choice for buyers who want SUV style without the showroom theatrics.

It’s our second Tucson — a diesel manual and a petrol automatic. I can only confirm that our next one in 2027 will be 99.9% a Tucson again. Gorgeous, pleasant, economical and sporty. Top choice.
