Here are consistently reliable SUVs with minimal reported major issues, based on recent surveys and long-term ownership experiences:
Lexus NX (2014-2021)

Owners reported zero faults, £0 repair costs, and no downtime. The hybrid version maintained exceptional dependability, and even the newer 2021+ NX scores 97.6%.
Toyota RAV4 (2019-present)
Ranked second-most reliable family SUV, known for hybrid efficiency and low maintenance costs. Earlier models also have strong track records.
Kia Telluride
Praised for luxury-level comfort and bulletproof reliability, backed by a 10-year/100,000-mile warranty. Used models retain value exceptionally well.
Honda CR-V/HR-V
- HR-V: RepairPal’s top-rated reliability with $300/year average repair costs and a lifespan exceeding 250,000 miles.
- CR-V: Consistently ranked among the most dependable compact SUVs.
Key Traits of Problem-Free SUVs
- Hybrid drivetrains: Toyota/Lexus hybrids dominate reliability surveys.
- Long warranties: Kia’s 10-year coverage reflects confidence in durability.
- Simpler designs: Fewer complex features reduce failure points (e.g., HR-V’s no-frills approach).
No SUV is completely fault-free, but these models have exceptionally low reported major issues.
