    Based on the data shared by Monseratto, the Ecosport is the cheapest crossover with a wading capability of 500mm. If you want a vehicle with AWD, then the Subaru Forester can fit within your budget (assuming with discounts). XV can also be an option as its platform has similarities with the Forester.

    Given all the negative feedback about EcoSport and Ford's after-sales service, would you guys get a cheaper, higher EcoSport or a lower and more expensive (but not as much negative feedback) Tucson?

    I still can't find the wading depth of the HRV. With the EcoSport at 500mm, XV at 450mm and Tucson at 400mm, then factoring in after-sales service, I might have to settle for the XV or HRV.

    ^^^ HARI Motors (Hyundai Local Dealer) has a lot of horror stories regarding its after-sales service. You can browse here in Tsikot the bad experiences of some members with HARI Motors. KIA's local dealer, Colombia Motors, has a better reputation in terms of after-sales service.

    Don't expect much from the HRV in terms of ground clearance as it is about the same or lower than the CRV. The CRV sits lower than most of the compact crossovers.

    Get the XV. Or the HRV. Test drive both and feel which is more suited to you. Both are excellent choices.
