TCC’s Bottom Line

It's hard to imagine a compact crossover better aligned with the needs of most buyers than the 2017 Honda CR-V.

The restyled 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport looks sharp, inside and out. We can't help but wonder what the model could do with a slightly improved powertrain lineup.

TCC Likes

Terrific space utilization inside
Refined ride quality
Flexible, large cargo area

Sharper styling all the way around
Good standard features
Still a good value, even in higher trims

TCC Dislikes

Not exactly pretty
Won't impress enthusiasts
Base LX lacks advanced engine and safety tech

Base engine isn't exciting
All-around gas mileage isn't great
Steering feel isn't sharp
