TCC’s Bottom Line

Rich in value and interesting styling cues, the 2013 Hyundai Tucson's a pint-sized crossover that completely avoids SUV cliches of size and looks.

The 2013 Nissan Rogue may not have excitement in its corner, but its layout, features, and affordability make a lot of sense for smaller families.

TCC Likes

Bold styling
Four-cylinder's smoother
Very good gas mileage

Spacious, well-designed interior
Urban-sized, and handles like it
Cargo versatility

TCC Dislikes

Steering feels artificial, lifeless
Not very quick at all
Leather seats aren't as good as cloth ones

Short, flat seats
Lacks driving excitement
CVT's delayed response
