The best inexpensive crossovers of 2023: top 10 successful models

Experts have named the best compact crossovers of 2023. Interestingly, all of them are quite affordable due to the peculiarities of the segment and high competition.

In fact, these compact crossovers have replaced hatchbacks, which continue to grow in popularity on the market. The list was compiled by Forbes. The selection differs from those compiled by European experts, demonstrating the difference in American preferences.

Top 10 best affordable crossovers of 2023:

1. Volkswagen Taos;
2. Kia Seltos;
3. Mazda CX-30;
4. Kia Niro;
5. Jeep Compass;
6. Hyundai Kona;
7. Chevrolet Trailblazer;
8. Kia Soul;
9. Subaru Crosstrek;
10. Ford Bronco Sport.

The VW Taos topped the list. The car's spacious and practical interior with high-quality finishes and well-tuned handling were highlighted as advantages.

Hyundai Kona is in the middle of the ranking as the crossover has recently changed generations. Buyers are offered different versions: with front and all-wheel drive, gasoline or electric. The interior is cramped, which is a disadvantage.

Ford Bronco Sport took the last place. This model has the most brutal design on the list, and its styling is more closer to SUVs than others. In fact, this crossover can go off-road, but rear passengers may complain about the cramped space.
