Mazda CX-80

The Mazda CX-80 brings polished, near-premium styling and a cabin that feels far classier than its badge might imply. It steers with a composed, engaging character and packs the sensible practicality families want — with just enough flair to make school runs feel a little less ordinary.

details

Toyota RAV4

The Toyota RAV4 is a pragmatic, family-friendly SUV that pairs impressively low running costs in hybrid form with a relaxed, motorway-friendly ride and a generous rear seat and boot that make everyday life easy. Its cabin leans toward practicality rather than polish—expect plenty of hard plastics and a tidy infotainment system that’s quick to respond but buries some climate functions in a touchscreen and can nag with drive‑recorder popups, so buyers wanting a premium feel or sporty dynamics should look elsewhere.
