AI generated from our expert reviews

Both the Hyundai Tucson and the BYD Atto 2 seat you up high with good outward visibility, and both have light steering that makes town driving easy. When carrying luggage, the longer Tucson offers a bigger boot than the Atto 2, as well as more total space when you fold the rear seats flat. Passenger room across the back bench tells a different story: three adults will find shoulder room more than a little snug in the Tucson, whereas three grown-ups can sit side by side in the Atto 2 with little complaints. Out on the motorway, the Tucson settles down into a comfortable cruise, whereas the Atto 2 never really feels settled at high speeds, asking for more steering input than you would like to keep centred and rocking from side to side a bit.
