Toyota RAV4
Dacia Bigster
VS
Put the ever-reliable Toyota RAV4 next to the newcomer Dacia Bigster and you get two sensible SUVs with very different appeals: the RAV4 delivers years of refinement, hybrid efficiency and a quietly premium cabin, while the Bigster trades polish for cavernous space and a wallet-friendly price. If you value low running costs, strong resale and fuss-free ownership, the RAV4 is the safe, sensible pick; if you need room for family, kit and a tight budget, the Bigster is a clever, no-nonsense bargain. Both will get you where you need to go — one with quiet confidence, the other with bold value and a grin.
Ford Puma
MG MG4
VS
If you want a cheeky, petrol-powered compact crossover that feels taut and practical — with Ford's lively chassis, a roomy MegaBox boot and mild‑hybrid frugality — the Puma is the small SUV to live with. But if you're ready to go electric without blowing the budget, the MG4 serves up surprising range, a spacious interior and brilliant value, making it the smarter, cleaner pick for everyday running.
