The Most Desirable SUV Brands on The Market

Showrooms are packed with SUVs and crossovers. The range includes vehicles about the size of a compact hatchback to those that can easily be classified as yachts on land that can carry families, pets, and luggage. These are the best performing SUV brands on the market today.

Mitsubishi

Mitsubishi SUVs are attractive mainly because of their low base prices. This works for shoppers looking for a bargain. The brand also offers a powertrain warranty of 10 years/10,000 miles that few others can match. Other than that, most of the models today seem a little outdated.

Dodge

Both Dodge SUVs, the Durango and Journey, belong in the midsize SUV segment. The Durango has a spacious and comfortable interior, a lot of family-friendly features, powerful powertrain options, and more. The Journey has a low base price and a user-friendly infotainment system. Beyond that, it’s a little underwhelming.

GMC

GMC has offerings in the compact, midsize, and large SUV segments. Of these, the compact Terrain has the best ratings. GMC SUVs also have user-friendly infotainment systems and are usually loaded with features. Their low-reliability ratings and high base prices drop their value for buyers.

Toyota

Toyota has a broad and diverse lineup of SUVs.The off-roader favorite 4Runner is capable but suffers from thirsty engines. The compact RAV4 and midsize Highlander are well rounded and also have hybrid variants that people love. Toyotas are also excellent in terms of reliability, value, and safety.

Subaru

Subaru’s offerings are limited but excellent. The Crosstrek, Forester, Ascent all have AWD and a ton of safety features. They’re practical, well rounded, and the midsize Ascent can seat eight easily.

Buick

Buick has recently started developing small and midsize crossovers. The lineup includes the subcompact Encore GX that has impressed in its early reviews. The midsize Enclave has its share of positive attributes too. These Buicks are stylish, spacious, and comfortable.

Hyundai

Hyundai is one of the best SUV makers in the market today. It offers vehicles for low prices with strong safety and reliability ratings, an excellent powertrain warranty, and a lot of standard and optional features. The Palisade, Tucson, and Santa-Fe are family-friendly and some of the best SUVs to buy.
