Top 5 Most reliable SUVs
By Motor Match • 18/04/2024
It’s raining. You’re sat at the side of the road, wet through, cursing your car. What was meant to be a nice family holiday has ended in tears, tantrums, and a towtruck. There’s not a lot worse than a breakdown, so we’ve made a list of the most reliable SUVs on the market to help you stay off the roadside and on the highway.
1. The Honda CRV
Romeo and Juliet. Ant and Dec. Honda and reliability. Some things just make sense and Honda creating reliable SUVs is one of them. In fact, previous CRVs averaged 300,000 miles before they eventually packed in so you can expect dependability from Honda’s flagship SUV model.
The most recent CRV arrived earlier this year, but we also have plenty of used stock available.
2. BMW X1
Second on this list is the BMW X1, a compact sporty SUV which you can trust. As you’d expect from a BMW, the XI is a handsome car. But more to the point, it also will travel fault-free for many miles and repairs are a quick, straightforward process.
The X1 packs a punch too and delivers a incredible driver experience.
3. Mercedes GLA
As with the BMW, the Mercedes GLA can be repaired quickly and is cheap to repair too. However, repairs should be few and far between as strong suspension and a dependable power train boost the reliability of the GLA.
Most models come equipped with run flats so, although punctures are rare with the GLA, if you are unfortunate enough to hit a perilous pothole, you’ll be able to continue your journey as you await a repair.
4. Toyota RAV4 Hybrid
The second Japanese vehicle on this list is the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, which combines sustainability and reliability. Not only will the incredibly efficient hybrid engine save you some money, but it will also eat up the miles without an issue.
A high ride height and sturdy suspensions help protect from pothole pain.
5. Volvo XC60 Petrol Hybrid
It wouldn’t be a most reliable list without a Volvo. The latest model of the XC60 arrived back in 2017 but continues the swedes pedigree. A large SUV with robust character, the XC60 is more than capable of shrugging off tough terrains and ploughing into the hundreds of thousands of miles.
So if you’re after an SUV which you can rely on, look no further than the 5 on this list. Suitable for all occasions year on year, check out our used SUV stock here.
