Best SUVs according to our experts

01.
Volkswagen Touareg
From
$89,240
8.3/10
From
$89,240

The refreshed Volkswagen Touareg impresses across the range and proves plug‑in hybrids have a place for large vehicles. Slick powertrain delivers decent electric range and 3500kg towing capability.


02.
Ford Everest
From
$53,990
8.1/10
From
$53,990

Australia has long held a soft spot for the Ford Everest but does the updated Sport 4WD variant continue to offer families the option of urban hauling and weekend adventuring?


03.
Toyota Prado
From
$62,830
7/10
From
$62,830

The 2024 Toyota Prado is on its way but should you even bother waiting or should you just get into a current‑generation Prado?Sure, the new‑gen Prado will look very different and is tipped to have features not onboard the current Prado, but it'll also have a mild‑hybrid 2.8‑litre turbo‑diesel engine, producing the same power and torque as the current Prado.So, does the Kakadu represent a good buy?


04.
Mazda CX-8
From
$38,990
8/10
From
$38,990

Mazda has a tendency to have a lot of similar looking horses in the stables; blink and you'll miss the (very) subtle differences between the CX‑8 and the CX‑9 but if you're not super keen on the bulk of the CX‑9 and you've outgrown the space of the CX‑5... this one's for you.


05.
Hyundai Santa Fe
From
$44,990
8/10
From
$44,990

Hyundai might be late to the hybrid SUV party, but its Santa Fe might be the best family SUV available in Australia right now.
