Great value for money, high quality interior, comfortable and refined, impressive levels of standard equipment, low running costs

Steering lacking in feel

The ix35 may effectively be the replacement for the underwhelming Tucson - but it's also much more than that. It represents a huge leap forward for Hyundai in terms of interior quality, exterior design and refinement. Elements such as the distinctive grille and modern cabin design make their debut in the ix35 and it leads the way in terms of economy and emissions too with impressively efficient and cheap to run engines. Despite its off-roader looks, most ix35s are two-wheel drive and its surprisingly compact with an overall length shorter than a Vauxhall Astra, making it easy to park. Comfortable and quiet on the move, there's little to find fault with and the icing on the cake is the ix35's superb value for money. It comes incredibly well equipped, has a five-year warranty as standard and is easily a match for more mainstream alternatives from Toyota and Volkswagen.
