一 | The automotive experts at Edmunds test SUVs of all shapes, sizes and prices. During these evaluations, certain models rise to the top with qualities such as roomy seating and cargo areas, a comfortable ride, and easy-to-use touchscreens and technology features. But with many prospective buyers looking to make every dollar count, it’s important to consider value as well.Working with a budget cap of $40,000, Edmunds picked five SUVs to highlight. Some have city-friendly proportions that take the stress out of parking in tight spots, while others have cavernous cargo holds and handy third-row seating. They are listed below in order of price, which includes the destination charge.2024 MAZDA CX-50The Mazda CX-50 small SUV earns a spot in this list thanks to its driving refinement and upscale cabin. From inside it’s not hard to believe that you’re behind the wheel of a luxury-badged model. The design is first-rate and the seats are supportive in either row. The CX-50 rides a bit more firmly over bumps than other SUVs, but in return it has stable handling and is enjoyable to zip around town in or take out on a scenic drive. All-wheel drive is standard on every trim, as are driver assist features such as lane keeping assistance, traffic-adaptive cruise control and blind-spot warning. A 186-horsepower four-cylinder serves as this Mazda’s capable and budget-minded base engine. There’s an optional turbo four-cylinder that’s more powerful, but it nudges the price at or above a $40,000 spending limit.Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price: $31,6752023 KIA SORENTOThe Kia Sorento is a compelling choice for shoppers wanting a low-priced seven-passenger SUV. Its third-row seating area is smaller than those of bigger models — such as the Hyundai Palisade listed below — but it is still suitable for occasional use for kids. Most of the Sorento’s trim levels come well stocked with helpful convenience and technology features.There is a choice of a fuel-conscious, non-turbocharged 191-horsepower four-cylinder engine or a punchier 281-horsepower turbo-four available in higher trims. And it’s possible to opt for the more powerful engine and keep the Sorento’s price well below $40,000. A Sorento Hybrid is also available for shoppers seeking higher fuel economy. Starting MSRP: $31,4152024 HONDA CR-VThe Honda CR-V is about as well rounded as a small SUV can get. It delivers a smooth and comfortable ride, great outward visibility, and loads of cargo space. Fuel economy is another plus point. The CR-V’s base 190-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder gets up to an EPA-estimated 30 mpg combined, or you can opt for the 204-hp hybrid powertrain that gets up to 40 mpg combined. Thanks to its recent redesign for the 2023 model year, the interior of the CR-V is attractive and functional. Picking the midgrade EX-L trim stays under our budget limit and still gets you some upscale features such as leather upholstery, a power liftgate and a bigger center touchscreen. Starting MSRP: $30,8252024 SUBARU OUTBACKThe Subaru Outback is ideal for SUV shoppers who want a vehicle that’s suitable for occasional off-road adventures. Thanks to its standard all-wheel drive and generous ground clearance, the midsize Outback has above-average capability on dirt roads or rocky trails. The Outback’s wagon-like shape also makes it easier to load recreational gear or cargo on the roof.Acceleration from the Outback’s standard 182-horsepower four-cylinder can be slow when you need a burst of speed on the highway, but in exchange the Outback gets a respectable EPA-estimated 28 mpg combined. A more powerful turbocharged four-cylinder is also available, though it exceeds our budget cap.Starting MSRP: $30,1902024 HYUNDAI PALISADEThe three-row Hyundai Palisade is the most expensive SUV among Edmunds’ choices here, and the majority of trims are priced beyond a $40,000 budget. But it’s important to know even the base Palisade is equipped with a long roster of tech features and driving aids. Highlights include a big 12.3-inch center touchscreen, first- and second-row USB ports, traffic-adaptive cruise control and blind-spot warning.All Palisades come with a 291-horsepower V6 engine that delivers acceptable acceleration and fuel economy. Despite its relatively large size, the Palisade is relaxing to drive and easy to maneuver. Also worth noting is its third-row seating has ample space even for adults, which is a rarity among many midsize SUVs. Starting MSRP: $37,735_______This story was provided to The Associated Press by the automotive website Edmunds.Nick Kurczewski is a contributor at Edmunds and is on Twitter and Instagram。
二 | AI摘要 徐佳青将赴欧27天，以安全为由拒透行程。民众党批其刚被列为被告又公款出访，且过往涉特权违法、谎言被戳破却未道歉，质疑其滥用“机密”规避监督。 台当局“侨委会”负责人徐佳青近期卷入“假考察真观光”争议，传出20日将再度窜访欧洲多地参加侨务活动。
三 | 台民意机构民众党党团总召陈清龙19日表示，徐佳青才刚被列为被告，现在又传出要离台27天，对外声称行程无可奉告。原来“侨委会”所谓的机密，全看对自己有没有利。 台民意机构“对外事务与防务委员会”19日邀请徐佳青、台外事主管部门负责人林佳龙报告，针对8月20日至9月15日将窜访欧洲多地参加侨务活动，徐佳青会前受访时证实此事。但她称，基于“台湾安全”等因素，离台的行程无可奉告。 陈清龙表示，徐佳青才刚被台北地检署列为被告，现在又传出要离台27天。
四 | 面对媒体询问拿公帑的外访行程，竟然对外声称“基于台湾安全因素”无可奉告，真的是胡说八道。如果离台都是机密，“侨委会”预算书何必写派员离台计划？更何况“侨委会”正副负责人离台后，经常发布新闻稿自我宣传，“机密与不机密，全看对自己有没有利。” 陈清龙指出，徐佳青去年遭揭发量身打造活动，就为了耍特权让儿子登上东沙岛，当时她本人驳斥是乌龙爆料，如今台监察机构认定“违法”属实，台北地检署也已经将其列为被告。谎言早已被一一戳破，徐佳青被问及此事只傲慢地回答一句“尊重”，请问徐佳青何时要为去年的谎言道歉？。
