We don’t need to remember that SUVs have become the preferred choice of buyers. But more and more families are looking for a product that meets the following characteristics: a compact size, a good trunk for its size (with enough space for shopping, the baby’s stroller, etc…), reasonable rear seats (to make it easier to place babies in their pushchair), and all this on a tight budget.
There are options on the market that are not on the best-seller lists, nor are they in the purchasing decision process of most drivers who are thinking of changing cars. Alternatives that are very far from products like the SEAT Arona, which Today it is the best-selling SUV of less than 4.25 meters in Spainor the Volkswagen T-ROC, more expensive, and more spacious than the one in Martorell.
But what other options are there for someone looking for a Cheap, compact SUV with a good trunk?
An SUV with 400 liters of trunk for less than €20,000
Skoda has a product in its range such as the Skoda Kamiq, which, even though it is an alternative to the SEAT Arona, with which it shares a platform and technology, is longer, has a longer wheelbase, and thus achieves a more spacious and Above all, much more spacious and accessible rear seats.
The cheapest Skoda Kamiq at the moment starts at €19,400, which would enjoy the offer – requires financing – for an Active version with a 1.0 TSI gasoline engine and 95 CV of power. As standard, the equipment of this version is quite acceptable, including 16″ alloy wheels and a Bolero entertainment system with an 8″ touch screen.
As we said, the Skoda Kamiq is one of the most spacious SUVs of its size. Its trunk is not the largest in the category, but it is one of the best and, above all, the car that offers the most space in the rear seats in its category, which is undoubtedly a strong point for family use.
What alternatives are there to other spacious SUVs for less than €20,000?
- The Skoda Kamiq is on offer from €19,400, with a very large trunk, 400 liters, and above all very spacious rear seats. Its defect, in my opinion, is not having a sliding rear bench that allows adjusting the space in the trunk and for passengers according to our needs, which is an option present in other cars in its category.
- The SsangYong Tivoli is on offer from €16,900 And in my opinion it is one of the best options, because it has a similar trunk, narrower rear seats, but above all it is very cheap. The SsangYong Tivoli Grand is on sale for €19,200 and it is much more spacious, and it is still at a price similar to the Kamiq, but its length is already approaching 4.5 meters and therefore it is not as compact.
- The Toyota Yaris Cross is on sale from €24,100 And it’s our preferred option, with a similar trunk, less spacious rear seats, and significantly more expensive, but with a hybrid system that seems like an excellent option right now.
