Why are you dinging these cars for being small?! They are subcompact! They are supposed to be small, and many people are looking for exactly that. Something easy to maneuver and park in a city, and slightly taller than a standard car. Dinging them for being small is like complaining a soft top convertible for not having a roof.

Now it costs me $30 to fill up and I can drive around for 2 weeks on that. Plus it's much easier to park and much lighter so the handling feels very sporty. At first I was a little in shock with the change, but after a few weeks I feel comfortable and know I made a good decision.

I own the 2020 Nissan Rogue Sport S. I don't hear the CVT noise you're talking about. I was pleasantly surprised with the interior appearance and features as well as the exterior looks of the vehicle. Can fit 2 carseats in backseat with decent legroom for a compact SUV. One carseat is for my 12 year old disabled Grandson. His wheelchair folds and fits in the back cargo area very well also. I am quite pleased so far.

Bought a '20 ecosport SE and love it. The reviewer says awd is not an option yet with the 2.0 awd is standard. The other highlights are the 2.0 is a non-turbo engine with a good reputation. Less likely to need expensive repairs on that engine later in its life. The standard transmission instead of a cvt was a big deal because this means it can tow. It has a 2000 lb tow capacity where most of the others have none at all. I have towed two full size atv's on a trailer (maxing the 2k tow capacity) and it will handle it just fine if you manual shift it when needed for hills. I get 28mpg pretty regularly and I am happy with that. The seats are comfortable. My only gripes are no spare tire, the center cupholder location sucks (should have put it in front of the shifter), and I don't like the way the wipers go from the center of the windshield out overlapping in my view.

i know i own a ford so this will sound very biased but here me out. here is what i got from your dislikes for the ford ecosport: it's slow, cramped, and gets bad mpg. every suv in this segment is slow and cramped, and while the mpg is not excusable (my escape gets the same mpg), there is no reason to not like it besides the fact that it's ugly, to me at least. it has one of the cheapest base prices, it can tow what's considered "ultra-lightweight" campers, which most if not all in this segment can't, and the 2.0 N/A engine that comes with the awd models is an old mazda engine, meaning it's a 300,000+ mile engine if taken care of. i would choose the kona/seltos and the mazda CX-3/CX-30 over it but that't about it, the rest are either unreliable, aren't rated to tow, or just not my taste. the HRV is a nice option, so is the buick but it lacks reliability.

ours got totaled. it was a 17 pearl white sv with the fog lights/leather steering wheel. i miss it.

I bought a brand Jeep Renegade, 4x4, in Dec 2018, and I still don't regret it. I agree though, that interior cargo space is small, found this out when I couldn't fit a 70-inch tv which was new in box, I had to call Mom and her Rav4. However for mojority of my cargo needs the space is good enough. Ai like the boxy styling of the Renegade as I do like the interior layout as well. Also is the backs seat is rommier that it appears. Feedback from backseat passengers of all heights have been pleasantly surprised. I'm glad at least my Renegade was towards the bottom of this list. Don't shy away from this car.

I bought a 2020 Nissan Rogue Sport. The worst thing about a smart looking SUV was the lack of take off speed.

Wait 5 years and do the list again on these same Vehicle's for these years....

3 years later rogue sport looks worse but got better engine

Had a rental Rouge Sport for a week trip to Vegas. The CVT was rubber band-like, easily confused, and gave off a burning smell in stop n go traffic. Oh, and the rear hatch rattled the entire time. I returned it and complained. The rental agency only charged me half of the bill because they said they've had a lot of complaints about the Rouge Sport rear hatch rattling or simply popping open because the hatch latch breaks easily. No wonder Nissan is on the edge of bankruptcy.

I drove a 2020 Hyundai Kona back in March when I was in Texas. Love that car and now that I am in the market, she is definitely on my very short list. That and the Honda HR-V.

Have 3 Outlandrr sports 2 with the 2.4L engine. Yes a bit small on space. But no issues whatsoever. 4WD in snow. Not a “showy” car but best value for the dollar. I find Mitsubishi dealers really willing to work with you. They are great for college students.

While not sub-compact, I had a 2017 Mits Outlander GT and wish I wouldn't have traded it. Good mileage, would tow 3500 pounds, rode smooth, ample room and the best AWD system I've driven. Not to mention a 5 year BTB and 10 year drive train. Didn't hold value and traded it - should have considered it's good traits instead of worrying about retained value.

I’ve watched dozens of other reviews on this market segment and driven several of these SUVs as well. The Mazda CX-3 is by far at the top of the class, followed by the Nissan Rogue Sport. The Ford Ecosport is almost the worst of the bunch, but it takes a backseat to the Jeep Renegade. And the Honda HRV is a major disappointment as well. It’s cramped, needs more power, and lacks space in the rear seat and cargo area.

If you are looking for small, economy, good on gas, fun to drive, easy to park and mostly affordable any of these are great, just pick the one you like and fits you the best. Dont know why these people give all these bad ratings. If you want and can afford a costly big car then go for it just leave these to us who like the small ones.

The vehicle known as Rogue Sport in the U.S. is the Quashqai in Europe. It sells EXTREMELY well in Europe because....BIG SURPRISE, Europe doesn't get the CVT. Depending on trim level, they have a choice between a manual or a " regular " automatic transmission.

The Honda HR-V sounds pretty decent to me...

While the video is clumsy and lacks depth it’s nice to see someone who isn’t just promoting vehicles and basically in PR or sales. I’d agree many of these cars are undesirable, but beauty is also in the eye of the beholder. What everyone wants is a reliable vehicle that won’t be in the shop regularly and cost lots in repair bills. Many of these vehicles definitely would fall on that list. Nissan’s CX-30 is one lower priced crossover that delivers. Step ups to the CX-5 or Subaru Forester are worth the money. Worth mention many newer cars especially crossovers have poor visibility in rear blindspots with the Forester being one exception.

I'm going to disagree with you somewhat on the HRV. We lived with one last year and long story short, it is not with us anymore. We ended up replacing it with a CX-5 GT just before Covid hit. There are actually things I miss about the HRV. As a second car it was great in the winter, as much room inside as the CX-5, actually more comfortable up front for me as the seats in the CX-5 are hard and narrow. Space wise, Honda finds space in a small package like magic whereas the CX-5 is quite a bit larger on the outside, but no different on the inside and without the magic seats, some things actually fit better in the HR-V. I HATED the CVT and will never buy another CVT based car... NEVER. HR-V makes a great second car, grocery getter type thing and great in the winter

What exactly makes these the worst. Sounds subjective! Consumers know what they’re looking for. They’re going to be small, hence compact. Besides many people I know with the Honda and Nissan love it. What national survey is this from?

I live in Mexico and bought the 2017 Nissan Kicks manual transmission compact SUV brand new. In 4 years of ownership only had to replace the battery. Like central Texas, heat "eats" up batteries. I got a free 5-year extended warranty with the condition I bring my car in every 6 months for service. Get this, paid $12,417 USD tax, title, license out the door! The manual transmission has been fine. Fits 4 comfortably, 5 if smaller. Good trunk space. Absolutely no problems with the vehicle other than replacing the battery after 3 years which I always had to do in Texas (every 3 years). The roads are narrow in most "Centro" areas of Mexican towns so this was a perfect little vehicle for my "narrow" street needs. The trunk lid lifts straight up which helps in narrow, tight spots. Nissan also is one of the biggest car brands in Mexico so I liked that it would be easily serviced anywhere. It was also built in Mexico.

I just don't understand with all of today's modern technology, car makers don't make these crossovers with better gas mileage. These are ridiculously low.
