Choosing between the Hyundai Tucson and the MG HS comes down to what you value most in a family SUV. The Tucson brings standout styling, a high-quality cabin, and a generous boot that outpaces its rival. On the other hand, the MG HS impresses with a roomy back seat, a smart interior layout, and plenty of standard equipment. Both models deliver sensible, practical transport for daily duties, though neither will thrill you with sporty handling on a winding road.

Choose it for

  • Its high-class cabin, handsome styling, and a particularly generous boot capacity that gives you plenty of room for luggage and family gear.

Worth knowing

  • The suspension feels on the firm side, so you will notice rough surfaces and potholes on bad roads.

Choose it for

  • Its roomy back seat where four six-foot adults can get comfortable without any difficulty at all.

Worth knowing

  • The infotainment system is sluggish to respond and relies too heavily on the touchscreen for simple adjustments.
