10 best crossovers under 1,000,000 rubles in 2021

The Chinese brand Lifan is primarily known for its sedans, but recently it has decided to further conquer the market by releasing a budget crossover under the philosophical name "My Way". The first thing that catches your eye when looking at it is a stylish design. It can be seen that the engineers did their best, developing a beautiful, and at the same time unique appearance of their car. And it is worth noting that originality is a very rare characteristic among Chinese manufacturers. Apparently Lifan decided to break the stereotype about copying, and in this model they succeed in this in the best possible way.

Inside, there is a quite comfortable interior, which somewhat spoils the rise, under which the cardan shaft is hidden. Before us is a rear-wheel drive car, and this is the only model with this configuration. Why this was done is not clear, but let's leave it to the conscience of the developers. The engine here is also not the most powerful. Only 1.6 liters, which with such not the smallest dimensions may seem very small, but as tests show, this is quite enough to make the crossover feel comfortable not only in the city, but also on the highway.

Under the Tiggo brand, the Chinese brand Cherry produces several cars, namely crossovers. Before us is the fifth generation of this car, which has received a number of changes compared to its predecessors. You should start here with external changes, since they are the majority and they are the most significant. The car has become more stylish, so to speak. According to the developers, they decided to capture the youth audience by creating a beautiful and modern crossover for them. It is worth noting that the designers succeeded and, compared to previous versions of Tiggo, the fifth model really began to look much more attractive.

As for the interior equipment, everything here is the same as in previous models. There are several new decorative inserts in the cabin, and the front panel has changed slightly. Everything else is the same. There are also no big changes under the hood. There are several types of configurations to choose from, including a diesel one, but the most inexpensive version is equipped with a 1.6-liter engine of the appropriate power. Simply put, nothing outstanding and beyond one million rubles.

Another representative of the Chinese automotive industry, which can be safely called the best in its class. This is a compact crossover without unnecessary details. Its external appeal is due to minimalism in details, both external and internal. Despite this, the car looks very stylish and even representative.Initially, this model was a sedan and had a different marking, but its dimensions were too large for a sedan, and the manufacturer decided to slightly change the body, turning it into a full-fledged crossover.

The changes affected only the appearance of the body, and this should be taken into account when choosing this model. Under the hood, she has a 1.6 liter engine that produces 120 horsepower. This is not a little, but not the best result even among Chinese cars. And after paying a few tens of thousands, you can choose a model with a more powerful engine that will better match the class of the car. But even if you buy the basic package, you get everything at once. In more expensive models, only the stuffing under the hood changes, while the set of options remains the same.

Always dreamed of the best executive crossover with all the bells and whistles that goes with it, but can't afford to go beyond $1 million? Then be sure to pay attention to this car, which at first glance directly screams about how serious and important it is. Let's start with the exterior. The crossover looks very attractive and stylish. Massive, somewhere rough, and somewhere a smooth curve of the body creates an excellent combination, hinting at both the executive class and the sporty one. Everything inside is also top notch. Wood inserts. Soft high-quality plastic, leather upholstery and velor, and all this at a price of less than 1,000,000 rubles.

Let's start with the fact that wood, velor and leather are just an imitation, albeit of very high quality.The body is really attractive, and there are no complaints about the Chinese engineers, as they managed to create a beautiful and at the same time roomy car. But under the hood, a surprise awaits. The car is equipped with several types of engines, and if we are talking about a budget option, then for this money you will get a 105 horsepower engine with a volume of only 1.6 liters, which is very modest for such a not the smallest car.

Many owners of this famous crossover from the Japanese concern Nissan will now say that the cost of this model goes beyond one million. We will answer, yes, it is, but only if we talk about the augmented modification. If you have heard a lot about the excellent quality characteristics of this model, but are not ready to pay more than 1,000,000 rubles, you can take the basic package, and it will still be the same QASHQAI, although without some convenient features.

These additions do not affect the driving characteristics of the car. Since it is available in more than five trim levels, you have the opportunity to choose exactly what you need, or what fits into your budget. For 950 thousand you get a 1.6-liter engine with 130 horsepower, and for a crossover, this is quite acceptable. True, given the rather large dimensions and weight of this model, you will not be able to feel comfortable on the track with this configuration. There will be no such things as heated seats or 8 parking sensors. You will have to pay a lot for this, but as mentioned above, this does not affect the overall characteristics in any way.

Crossovers are city cars with an increased frame and capacity. Their main task is to transport you and preferably your entire family from point A to point B, and no one says that you must drive at top speed. Off-road performance in crossovers is also not in the foreground. Yes, the car has a high ground clearance, and often all-wheel drive, but there is no need to talk about overcoming severe off-road. But before us is a real masterpiece of the Japanese car industry, which completely breaks stereotypes about crossovers.

Let's start with the fact that even with a rather average 1.7-liter engine installed under the hood, the car can easily accelerate to almost 200 kilometers. Of course, in the city this quality is unlikely to be useful to you, but on the highway you will not feel limited by engine power. At the same time, the engine is as economical as possible. On the highway, its consumption is only 8.5 liters per hundred kilometers. In the city, this figure increases, but not as significantly as in other crossovers.

Japanese manufacturers are famous for the high quality of their work, and it doesn’t matter if we are talking about a luxury car for several tens of millions or a budget crossover worth less than 1 million. We have a vivid example that quality does not have to be expensive. This is an inexpensive crossover that will last for many years and will not require major repairs. Everything here is on top, from build quality to decoration, if I may say so, of the cabin.Of course, you shouldn’t expect something supernatural for that kind of money, but you definitely won’t feel deprived while driving such a car.

Top notch and appearance. The car looks very brutal and stylish. A powerful SUV directly blows from him, although only a 1.7-liter engine with a capacity of 130 horses is hidden under the hood. True, there are more powerful options, but you will have to pay extra for them, which means that you will have to go beyond the established budget of 1 million. As for the shortcomings, they often talk about the cost of spare parts. Yes, a car rarely breaks down, but if something breaks down, get ready for spending, or start looking for worthy analogues, which, fortunately, are quite numerous on the modern market.

If you are looking for the most inexpensive crossover, then it is in front of you. A joint project of the Russian VAZ and the American giant Chevrolet. A truly people's car, as can be judged by the number of sales of it in the local market since the release period. First of all, buyers appreciate Niva for its affordable price tag and maintainability. There are a lot of spare parts and consumables on the market, and they are relatively cheap, even if you take the original, and not the analogue. And here it should be noted that the price in the review is indicated for the average configuration. In the basic version, the price tag will decrease by about one hundred thousand rubles.

For the money you get a full-fledged crossover. Although with a number of disadvantages. First, the cabin is not very comfortable. Yes, the car is compact, but the reduction in overall dimensions has led to space savings inside.Secondly, buyers often complain about insufficient sound insulation and loud operation of some nodes, in particular handouts. In principle, all these points are solvable and easily corrected, but the fact remains.

Crossover manufacturers face a difficult task, they need to combine a sedan and an SUV, taking convenience from the first, and cross-country ability from the second. In this case, an increase in dimensions is inevitable, but in the conditions of the city, the small size of the car acquires special value, and Skoda engineers, apparently, succeeded in the impossible. Before us is the most compact crossover, inexpensive and as comfortable as possible. Outwardly, it is very compact, while the interior space was not infringed. There is a fairly spacious interior and a roomy trunk, and even three adults will feel comfortable in the back seat.

In 2019, Skoda made a restyling of its flagship, introducing an updated model, and it should be noted that there are no cardinal changes here. The car is still comfortable and compact at the same time, and the restyling touched only on external data. The headlights were changed, the grille was also deformed, and several new lines appeared on the body. But it's still the same Yeti. Budget crossover, which in the basic configuration costs less than 1 million rubles.

Before us is a universal car that is equally suitable for all drivers. It doesn't matter if you are a man or a woman. Student or experienced businessman.The appearance of the car is made so relevant and stylish that it will suit any person, and it is also a full-fledged crossover. The dimensions are not the largest, and the clearance leaves much to be desired, but it should be understood that this model was developed specifically for use in an urban environment. A car can take you out of the city or to the country, but you should not try to overcome severe impassability on it.

As for the technical characteristics, you should not expect much from such a budget crossover. Under the hood it has a 1.5 liter engine with 105 horsepower. It is quite enough for such a car, and if you are ready to pay a few tens of thousands more and go beyond one million, then you can take a model with a two-liter engine or an economical diesel, but that's a completely different story.
