Product Information

If you often carry three adults in the back, you’ll need the top-specUltimate model, because it's the only version with three headrests in the back, rather than two. With real-time directions and traffic information from the leading European GPS provider, TomTom®, every journey will be a breeze. The Crossland was actually designed and developed as part of a joint-venture between General Motors (Vauxhall’s then-owner) and PSA (Peugeot, Citroen and DS’s parent-company). Vehicles shown are for illustrative purposes only and may be fitted with optional equipment- please contact your Retailer for full details.

And the relatively bluff front end has received a Vauxhall grille and headlights to reasonable effect. The Crossland X is available with specially designed AGR-certified seats up front (which means they’ve been built with the German Campaign for Healthier Backs, prove comfortable enough, if not quite up there with Volkswagen’s Ergocomfort seats), and optional adjustable rears can be slid backwards and forwards to prioritise luggage space over legroom. Then, just as the Crossland went on sale, PSA went and bought the whole Vauxhall/Opel brand from the Americans.Its screen was slow to respond to fingertip inputs and it lacked the powerful processing power of more expensive units. The Crossland X is about level with the Yeti on practicality and marginally beats it on interior flexibility and value, but it’s an undistinguished addition to the class in other ways. For example, you might also be considering the Ford Puma, the Nissan Juke, the Skoda Kamiqor the VW T-Roc. Whereas the Crossland X’s sibling models effectively come with their own data connection, you have to supply your own here. Disappointingly for a modern car from a respected brand, automatic emergency braking ( AEB) isn't standard on all trim levels.

For the time being, the Crossland X only makes it to fourth in our top five list ahead of the Suzuki Vitara, but behind the Mazda CX-3, the Renault Captur and the formidable Skoda Yeti. metres long, the Crossland X’s rivals include the aging Ford EcoSport and popular second-generation Renault Captur, as well as the consistently big-selling, and UK-built, Nissan Juke.There’s good head room even for taller adults in the back seats, although three adults would be a squeeze back there. Regardless, a used Crossland or Crossland X remains an attractive choice thanks to its conveniently spacious size and lower-end running costs. The values do not take into account in particular use and driving conditions, equipment or options and may vary depending on the format of tyres. But then, it does present enough rational arguments that it'll insinuate itself deep into many families' lives.

Sharper intrusions can cause quite a nasty thump through the suspension, too, for which our test car’s 17in alloy wheels and 50-profile tyres cannot be entirely blamed.The elastic lightness and vagueness of the car’s steering isn’t enough to make it tricky to place on the road or to guide through a corner, but it does discourage you from seeking much engagement fromthe driving experience and it can make your progress away from T-junctions a little ragged. They're much better for picking your way along unlit roads at night than halogen bulbs, which are still fitted to certain versions of the Kia Stonic. The Yeti is about to be replaced by something quite different, but it nevertheless comes closest to combining the charm, space, capability and value that the idea of a downsized hatchback-cum-SUV promises. inch sat-nav enabled colour touchscreen, voice control, a second USB charging connection, a premium sound system, leather seat facings, heated front seats and steering wheels, the Versatility Pack (including sliding rear seat, centre rear seat armrest and centre rear seat head restraint), contrast colour roof and the Safety Pack (featuring driver drowsiness system, forward collison alert and autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian detection). No, says Vauxhall, but on paper the space between the Mokka X and Crossland X appears very slender indeed.
