Top SUVs You Can Rely On

Used car shoppers have more options than ever now that SUVs are dominating the American market. Although the SUV was once considered an outlandish vehicle, it has quickly become America’s vehicle of choice. Given this, the popularity of SUVs has also exploded in the secondhand market. The best part about SUVs in the pre-owned market is that you can buy your preferred model for a fraction of the actual sticker price. However, with larger vehicles, reliability can be an issue. That’s why we’ve put together this list of reliable used SUVs available in the market right now.

Honda CR-V

Since the Honda CR-V first debuted in 1997, it has quickly become one of the most popular choices for small crossover SUVs in America. Built on the Civic’s legendary bones and offering improved storage space and a higher ride height, the CR-V offers reliability, comfort, and versatility. The CR-V was redesigned in 2012 to offer even better fuel economy and more power so you can handle any road. Another redesign in 2019 gave it a slight increase in power and improved styling, as well.

Chevrolet Traverse

The Chevrolet Traverse is a superb vehicle for growing families. No matter how many people you’re bringing along, there’s lots of space to ride comfortably. The large SUV also has plenty of legroom for taller passengers and a large cargo area in the back. In addition, it is one of the safest vehicles on the road, with a 5/5 crash test rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). It also has a V6 engine that gives it more oomph than smaller SUVs. You’ll have all of your friends begging for rides in this baby.

GMC Yukon

For a dependable yet luxurious SUV, the GMC Yukon is a solid choice. Known for its interior comfort and sturdy build, this SUV can seat up to 8 passengers. It also has 5.3-liter or optional 6.2-liter V-8 engine options, and it can tow up to 8,000 pounds. If you’re looking for luxury on top of that, try later models that include features such as adaptive safety systems and cooled cup holders in the front row. Search for models made between 2011-2015, which report the highest reliability ratings.
