The Toyota Corolla Cross takes the familiar Corolla recipe, lifts it up and dresses it in SUV clothes — sensible, comfortable and blessedly unflashy. It won’t thrill the enthusiast, but its easy manners, clever packaging and dependable feel make it an ideal everyday car for shoppers who prefer sense over sass.

Mitsubishi Grandis

The Mitsubishi Grandis is a no-nonsense MPV that hides a surprisingly sleek profile, making family duty look almost stylish. It’s spacious, easy to drive, and built to shrug off daily chaos, though the cabin feels dated and it prefers a relaxed cruise to any hot-hatch antics.
