Toyota Yaris Cross vs Ford Puma vs Skoda Kamiq: 2021 Small SUV Comparison Australia

This comparison test takes three of the most recently-launched light SUVs. They are brand-new nameplates for the brands here, and we're sticking them head-to-head to find out which we think is more worthy of your dollars. We've got the much-hyped Yaris Cross, the important-for-the-brand Ford Puma, and the Skoda Kamiq, which we think flys under the radar compared to the others. We've also chosen them with a price benchmark of $30,000 which has us in the base Ford Puma (simply called Puma), the base Skoda Kamiq 85TSI, and the mid-spec Toyota Yaris Cross GXL 2WD Hybrid. So which should you choose? We've stuck these three all-new SUVs head-to-head in our eight review criteria, including price and specs, design, practicality, engine and transmission, fuel consumption, drive experience, safety, and ownership in order to give you the most complete picture. With three all-new nameplates with no established history, this should be a particularly interesting test, watch on or read the full review on carsguide.com.au to see which one we tip as the winner. As always though, keep in mind that an outright winner on our scheme might not be the car most suited to your lifestyle, so take a closer look at the criteria most relevant to you as each of the choices in this review have their own pros and cons. -- Timecodes: 00:00 Intro 01:27 Pricing 02:34 Features 03:58 Design 06:15 Interior 11:01 Practicality 12:37 Boot space 13:02 Engine specs 13:37 Driving 19:54 Fuel consumption 20:36 Safety 21:45 Ownership 22:35 Verdict -- Read the full story here: https://bit.ly/3Z2oM76 Check out our Puma hub: https://bit.ly/42QybQ3 Check out our Kamiq hub: https://bit.ly/3RMQGzU Check out our Yaris Cross hub: https://bit.ly/3FZ3Y9Y -- CarsGuide - Go beyond the test drive Visit our website for News, Reviews, Advice and more: https://www.carsguide.com.au Subscribe to our YouTube channel:    / carsguide   Like our Facebook page:   / carsguide.australia   Follow our TikTok profile:   / carsguide.com.au   Follow our Instagram profile:   / carsguideaus   Follow our X profile: https://www.x.com/CarsGuide Follow our Threads profile: https://www.threads.net/@carsguideaus Follow our LinkedIn page:   / carsguide-com-au
