I drive an Outback every day; I had an X‑Trail as a courtesy car while mine was in for service. First impression after a few kilometres of driving — the suspension is a disaster. You get the feeling this car picks up every single imperfection in the tarmac. Also, at idle the engine causes noticeably more vibrations in the cabin than the Subaru. On the plus side, a more ergonomic gear lever and 360° cameras. But I wouldn’t swap...

Toyota C-HR

The Toyota C-HR wraps efficient hybrid drivetrains in dramatic, European‑tuned styling and a noticeably upmarket cabin, delivering composed ride quality and easy city manners that suit style‑minded commuters and company drivers. Accept a tighter, dim rear seat, a fiddly high‑lip boot and occasional CVT grumble plus persistent warning chimes, and you get a very economical, confident little crossover that prizes individuality over outright practicality.
