The 5 Top Purchased SUVs in 2021
SUVs provide amazing value in 2021. They provide the driver with a ton of room for storage and family trips. They also are sleek and with modern technology, oftentimes get great gas mileage. SUVs are no longer the gas-guzzling cars they were in the late 90s and early 2000s. New SUVs for 2021 are great for pretty much any potential buyer.
Here are the top purchased SUVs in 2021:
1. Ford Escape
The 2021 Ford Escape is one of the top purchased SUVs for 2021. The starting price for this popular SUV is $26,130. The turbocharged 181 horsepower engine comes standard with options to upgrade. It boasts a lot of power for a base model. The gas mileage on the Ford Escape is nothing to sneeze about. It gets 27 miles per gallon in the city and 33 miles per gallon on the highway. The interior is spacious but it’s also quite cheap looking with most of the panels being made from plastic. The base model comes with a radio display but you need to pay a little extra to get the touch screen that comes standard with most other cars. The Escape comes with forward collision warning, automated brakes and lane-keep assist. It also comes equipped with blind spot monitoring which is a great plus, especially for a base model.
2. Hyundai Santa Fe
Hyundai’s Santa Fe is a top selling SUV in 2021 and for good reason. The base model starts at $28,185. The interior on this model is incredibly spacious and much more luxurious feeling even at the price point. The Santa Fe comes with an 8.0 inch touch screen with options to upgrade to a 10.3 inch screen which is nice. The base model comes with a 185 horsepower engine which boasts a lot of power. The Santa Fe has a lot of cargo space and comes equipped with lane-keep assist, forward collision warning, and automated braking which is a huge benefit.
3. Kia Telluride
The Kia Telluride starts at $33,415 and is a bit more expensive but certainly worthy of being on this list. The Telluride comes with a 291 horsepower engine giving it a powerful base to start from. It can tow 5000 pounds making this great for hauling around large and heavy objects. There is enough cabin room for 8 passengers making this a great option for families. It’s interior is incredibly spacious and luxurious. The base model comes standard with an 8.0 inch touch screen with the option to upgrade to a 10.3 inch.
4. Jeep Grand Cherokee
The all-new Jeep Grand Cherokee starts at $36,465. The base model comes with two rows of seating but has the option to upgrade to 3 rows with a higher model. The Cherokee gets around 25 miles per gallon in terms of gas mileage. It’s probably the best for off-roading on this list and looks great but in terms of value, this one falls a bit lower.
5. Mercedes-Benz G-Class
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class is the highest class option on this list. It’s starting price point is $132,800. It has a boxy exterior which hurts the G-Class’s maneuverability but it is a luxurious offering from Mercedes. This car comes with a standard 12.3 inch touch screen for navigation and entertainment. It has a pretty low gas mileage at 13 mpg city and 17 mpg highway. However, this excels in the luxury department with a super chic interior.
