Ford Escape
It is true that the Ford Escape is a compact SUV, but it is capable of many things larger cars can do. It is spacious and equipped with many options and engines. It begins with a 168 hp four-cylinder and the range extends to a turbocharged 246 hp engine. With an engine as powerful as this, the Escape has the ability to tow up to 3,500 pounds. How impressive is that for an SUV as compact as this one?

Kia Sportage
The compact SUV class is one of the most competitive segments of the SUV race as there are more than 20 models from an array of manufacturers. This class is commonly dominated by Toyota, Honda, and Nissan so the Kia Sportage is not the most popular model. With 15,400 copies sold, it experienced a 12% sales loss compared to 2016. This is pretty odd as the SUV has a sleek design, rave reviews, and a price tag of $23,200.
