- Ford Mustang Mach-E: Depreciation has been brutal, which is great buying and painful selling. No towing.
- Kia Sportage: Class-leading cargo space wrapped in styling people either love or refuse.
- Hyundai Santa Fe: Fuel economy trails the class, and the 2024 redesign makes older ones look dated.
- Hyundai Tucson: Touch-capacitive controls are frustrating with gloves or in a bumpy parking lot.
