What's the best compact 4x4 automatic?
We are looking for a 4x4 automatic that's narrower than our Ford Kuga. Nissan sold a Juke CVT (now discontinued). Is this a good solution?

Don't go near a Juke CVT: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/nissan/juke-2010/?se...d / Two possibilities are a Peugeot 2008 1.2 Puretech 110 EAT6 or a Suzuki Vitara S 1.4T Boosterjet 6-speed torque converter auto. But it's a bit of a jump from the seat to the ground in a Vitara, so make sure she's happy about that first.
