The small crossover space is bursting with competition, including in Chevy’s own family, with the smaller, budget-friendly 2020 Chevy Trax and the more substantive 2021 Chevy Equinox.
Launched in 2020, the 2021 Mazda CX-30 leans upstream with premium features and a potent, if not outdated, powertrain.
New for 2021, Kia Seltos has a more daring design but can feel cheap on the low end.
The 2021 Hyundai Kona ensconces itself in black cladding like a hiking boot, but excellent standard safety and convenience features rescue it from the curb.
For off-road bona fides, the 2020 Jeep Renegade has a Trailhawk version with rugged, Wrangler-like looks inside and out, but it can be smaller, louder, boxier, and less efficient than the others.
