Best for: Value
The Duster has just entered its third generation, and it’s one of the best SUVs on sale in the UK today.
Sitting on a new platform, the Duster features a far more modern and assertive look than the previous model.
Engine-wise, there’s a 1.2-litre mild-hybrid petrol, a 1.6-litre hybrid and a 1.0-litre ‘Bi-Fuel’ option that can run on petrol or LPG.
The 1.2 feels most at home here, as it’s simple and no-nonsense to drive, as well as pretty economical. You can also order it with four-wheel drive.
You can pick the Duster up for a little under £19,000, making it the best value-for-money SUV on this list. It’s not as cheap as it once was, but it’s still considerably less than most brands ask for a supermini.
It provides a roomy four-seat cabin, a good-sized boot, good driving and cruising manners and a pretty healthy equipment specification, even in entry-level form.
