Vauxhall Crossland (2021-2024) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Plenty of space inside	No electric or hybrid version
More striking to look at than its predecessor	Rivals like Seat Arona or Ford Puma are much better to drive
Reasonably well equipped	Automatic emergency braking not available on entry-level model

Quick Summary

The Vauxhall Crossland (2021-2024) is a practical and affordable small SUV, representing a significant facelift over the earlier Crossland X. With a distinctive new front end and chassis tweaks for a better driving experience, it’s a more appealing package. Inside, it offers generous passenger space and a versatile boot that provides 410 litres of space, expanding to 520 litres on higher-spec models with a sliding rear bench. While the cabin materials and design aren't as premium as some rivals, it's well-equipped and functional.

On the road, the Crossland is competent and comfortable, though it lacks the dynamic flair of competitors like the Ford Puma. The turbocharged 1.2-litre petrol engines are the highlight of the range, offering a good blend of performance and efficiency. Diesels are also available for high-mileage drivers. Due to historically steep depreciation, the Crossland makes for a great value used purchase, offering a lot of car for the money compared to key rivals. It’s a sensible, if unexciting, choice in a crowded class.

Best for: Budget-conscious buyers looking for a spacious, practical, and well-equipped small family SUV.

Not ideal for: Drivers who prioritise an engaging driving experience, a premium interior, or those seeking a hybrid or electric powertrain.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Crossland if: You are looking for a great value used small SUV that maximises practicality, interior space, and standard equipment for your budget.

Consider alternatives if: A fun driving experience, upmarket interior, or the availability of a hybrid or EV powertrain are your main priorities.

Competitive Position: The Vauxhall Crossland is a solid, sensible contender in the small SUV class, but not a leader. It excels on value and practicality, particularly on the used market where it can be significantly cheaper than rivals. However, it is outshone by the superior driving dynamics of the Ford Puma and the all-round quality and comfort of the Skoda Kamiq. It’s a good car, but operates in a market segment full of great ones.
