Car of the Year went to Hyundai with its new Elantra , the reality of which might cause some in Dearborn to wonder what might have happened if the much-lauded in Europe and other markets new Focus had been made available in our market.
How this may have impacted the Truck of the Year results is not known. Obviously, major investment is going into electric and other alternative fuels…. The Venue is ideal for those who love cute, fuel-efficient, practical little hatchbacks, but want SUV style along with a taller driving position.
Its tall stance makes for a roomy cabin with decent cargo space. A brighter grille insert and these inch alloy wheels come standard with the Venue Ultimate. All trims above the base model receive roof rails. The driving environment is well laid out for comfort and control, while the leather-wrapped steering wheel has a nice, sporty feel. The gauge cluster is mostly analogue, but easy to read and smartly organized, although the monochromatic multi-info display at centre was a bit disappointing for a top-line model.
The seats are comfortable and supportive, while providing a good driving position and really attractive upholstery pattern. A sunroof is always a welcome addition. Rear seat comfort and roominess is very good for the class, but like the subcompact cars that came before, amenities are nominal.
Review and photos by Trevor Hofmann. The sharp looking RAV4 is actually one of the more practical inside, thanks to a lot of rear seat room and cargo capacity. Honda claims a solid second-place with its recently refreshed CR-V Thanks to decades of better-than-average reliability and impressive longevity, the CR-V has a deep pool of loyal fans.
The CX-5 Signature provides soft Nappa leather upholstery and real rosewood trim for a truly luxurious experience. Hyundai holds onto fourth place despite slight downturn Hyundai completely overhauled the Tucson for , making it one of the more appealing SUVs in the compact class.
The new Rogue moves Nissan buyers into a much higher level of luxury. General Motors does reasonably well in this class when both Chevrolet and GMC sales are combined, managing a collective eighth place.

Funky, fun and forward-looking, the Kona is fortunately not too whacky and weird, like some small SUVs that have come before. The Kona has plenty of interesting design elements arounds its big, open grille.
Slim bi-functional LED headlamps with active cornering lights, exclusive to Ultimate trim, are positioned high above the front fenders. Along with the LED headlights, the silver trim and the larger inch machine-finished alloy wheels come standard on Ultimate trim.
These LED taillights are standard across the entire Kona range. The mostly analogue gauge cluster is bright and attractive for the class. A wireless device charger was a pleasant surprise, Hyundai having long been ahead of the curve when it comes to adopting new technologies. The leather-wrapped shift knob controls a very advanced 7-speed dual-clutch automated gearbox. A powered glass sunroof is always nice. The rear seating area is roomy and the outboard seatbacks very comfortable with good lower support.
This shallow tray sits atop the spare tire under the cargo floor. The Nexo is significantly longer than the compact Tucson. The slender LED headlamps are enhanced by a thin strip of connecting light, plus powerful lamps below. The door handles power out when needing to get inside, after which they lock away flush into the door panels to aid aerodynamics. The gauge cluster is purely digital, and filled with functions. Hyundai uses a convenient tile layout for sorting through infotainment features, one of which provides fuel-cell drive system info.
This overhead parking camera certainly improved visibility. The lower console is a busy affair, but once acclimatized you should have no problem finding what you need. Rear seat occupants get outboard seat heaters and a folding centre armrest.
