Mega Entry Level Luxury SUV Comparo

 Audi Q2 VS BMW X1 VS Mercedes-Benz GLA VS Mini Cooper Countryman VS Volvo XC40

Audi Q2

Audi's smallest Q car may be expensive for its size but what you get a compact, premium crossover that's fun to drive thanks to the peppy 2.0 petrol engine and a suspension setup that makes it agile. Interior quality is another taking point. The level of equipment on offer at this price is a sore point though.

BMW X1

Mild styling tweaks and BS6 engines brings BMW's smallest SUV up to speed. The petrol and diesel units are refined but the latter has lost some mid-range punch. AWD has also been given a miss. As before, it scores well on space and is well-equipped in top-spec form. Ride and handling are good by class standards.

turbo-petrol engine putting 306hp and 400nm. It gets features like a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, a 10.25-inch touchscreen with the latest MBUX infotainment system, the 'Hey Mercedes' voice prompt, 64-colour ambient lighting and a large sunroof.

Mini Cooper Countryman
The facelift for the 2nd Gen Countryman helps keep it contemporary, with more kit on offer. Like all Minis, it's for drivers - it's agile for its size, borderline fun in the corners, and has punchy turbo-petrol. A cool alternative to X1 and Q2.

Volvo XC40
Volvo's newest SUV is a rival to the Q2 and X1. The XC40 stands out for its design and youthful persona. It's very well put together, cabin quality is a highlight and is extremely well-equipped. The new T4 petrol engine serves as a good replacement for the D4 diesel unit.
