Best SUVs according to our experts

01.
Volvo XC40
From
$54,990
7.5/10
From
$54,990

The Volvo XC40 Recharge Twin Motor continues to prove itself a worthy EV option but is its A‑game enough to lead the small electric SUV segment?


02.
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.


03.
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?


04.
Mitsubishi Pajero Sport
From
$41,999
7.5/10
From
$41,999

It's often overlooked in favour of more hyped 4WDs, but the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport deserves more attention and respect.It has a solid reputation as a very capable off‑road wagon and it also functions well as a daily driver, without ever being over‑the‑top special.The next‑generation Pajero Sport is due here in 2025, but until then the feature‑packed top‑spec GSR is well worth a look.


05.
Volkswagen Tiguan
From
$33,980
8.1/10
From
$33,980

The Volkswagen Tiguan R Grid Edition costs less than the Tiguan R, with all the wild and beastly performance of the hi‑po SUV it's based on. So what's the catch?
