(iSeeCars) – How reliable is the luxury SUV I want to buy? This question is top-of-mind for luxury SUV shoppers, but with limited unbiased and free resources available to consult, it can be difficult to answer. iSeeCars’s objective and data-driven Reliability Rating, based on a rigorous analysis of over 312 million vehicles, addresses this lack of information by calculating each luxury SUV model’s useful lifespan and its ability to last 200,000 miles or more. The luxury SUVs on this page are organized by luxury SUV segment and powertrain, allowing shoppers with any budget to find a reliable model.

Luxury SUVs are among the fastest-growing and highest profit vehicle categories in the market. Companies such as Acura, Infiniti, and Lexus have developed an extensive lineup of SUVs while traditional luxury SUV brands like Land Rover have produced many premium vehicles. Even luxury brands from Audi to Mercedes-Benz to Porsche, long known for their sporty sedans or sports cars, have come to recognize the power of all-wheel drive, off-road capability, and third-row seats, and developed a wide selection of high-end SUVs and crossovers.

Buyers seeking high horsepower, a smooth ride, upscale styling, or advanced infotainment systems will find it in today’s luxury utility vehicles. They’ll also find a wide range of sizes, powertrain choices, and pricing options. Subcompact and compact SUVs, powered by four-cylinder turbo and V6 engines, deliver a balance of performance and fuel economy, while larger three-row models offer more rear seat room, greater cargo space, and higher towing capacity. And while every modern luxury SUV includes basic features like heated front seats, high-end audio systems, and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, the best luxury SUVs will also deliver long-term reliability.
