The mid-size SUV is the default family car for good reason: high seating, big boot, and a five-star safety story. Here's where the value sits in the used market right now.
Toyota RAV4 Hybrid
The one everyone wants, and deservedly so. Real-world economy in the fours, Toyota reliability, and strong resale that works in your favour when you sell.
Mazda CX-5
The nicest to drive and sit in for the money. Petrol models are simple and dependable; the diesel is torquey if you tow.
Hyundai Tucson / Kia Sportage
Long factory warranties that often still have years to run, sharp looks, and a lot of standard kit. The Highlander and GT-Line grades are the ones to have.
Subaru Forester
Standard all-wheel drive and outstanding visibility. Not exciting, extremely sensible.
- Want seven seats? Stretch to a Kia Sorento or Toyota Kluger.
- Mostly city driving? A hybrid pays for itself.
- Towing? Look at diesel and check the braked towing figure.
