Vauxhall Crossland X SUV (2017 - 2020) Elite Nav 1.2 (130PS) Turbo auto 5d Owner Review

It’s a fairly underwhelming car. Plenty of power (130bhp) but marred by bad bump steer, hard seats and hard plastics. Confusing ergonomics, satnav unpredictable while instruction books are masterpieces of appalling authoring. Still don’t know how to set the time after a year! Our Kia Venga was far nicer. The Crossland is based on a Peugeot 208floorpan but the Peugeot is a far nicer car and our Vauxhall is very tiring on long journeys. It’s performance is excellent in terms of sheer power but it’s let down by too many other detail things that singly are irritants. Collectively they’re a damned nuisance. Modern Vauxhall’s are mostly good cars but this one is very disappointing. It’s a Motability car so will be gone in two years time and I won’t be sorry to wave it goodbye. Simply, it gets us where we want to go but I can’t say the experiences are enjoyable.
