79. SUZUKI SX-4S-CROSS

IT’S not the most attractive SUV, but Suzuki’s SX-4 S-cross has a lot going for it. For a start it’s relatively light, which benefits performance and handling. Furthermore, both the 1.0 and 1.4-litre turbo petrol engines are solid performers, prices are keen and equipment levels good.

Ultimately rivals such as the SEAT Ateca are better, but considering the Suzuki’s price advantage, it’s not as far behind as you might expect. Price range: £16,499-£25,249 Our pick: Boosterjet SZ-T (£19,749) Engine: 1.0-litre 3cyl petrol, 110bhp Transmission: 5-spd man, front-wheel drive Top speed: 112mph Economy: 56.5mpg CO2: 113g/km
