With fierce rivals in its compact-crossover class, the 2019 Tucson offers great warranty coverage as its trump card.
The Honda CR-V has oodles of space and style that’s made great strides.
As a default in the segment, its real rival is the Toyota RAV4, itself brand-new for the 2019 model year, complete with a hybrid version.
It’s the final model year for the Ford Escape in 2019, but its sharp handling and brisk acceleration lift it high in the class, while the new Subaru Forester puts facial recognition to the fore, as well as top-drawer safety.
The Nissan Rogue conquers the mean here: it’s stellar in nothing, but at least average or better in most ways, including ride quality, price, and safety.
