Luxury SUVs are among the ultimate objects of desire. But they can be temperamental too. All that sophistication comes at a price, and when it breaks down, the repair bills can cause nightmares. Thankfully, there are options in the market that are known for their reliability. Here are some of the best.
Lexus NX
Both the conventional gasoline-powered and hybrid NX models sit at the top of the reliable luxury SUV list. They offer controlled and sporty handling, along with a quiet and comfortable ride. The cabin is well-equipped and luxurious with a host of standard features. Economy figures are great as well.
Porsche Macan
This is a compact luxury SUV with a sports car-like performance. It’s quick, responsive, and carves a tight path around corners. The passenger cabin is opulent, appointed with exquisite materials, and has a long equipment list that comes as standard. It is expensive, but its performance and reliability levels outweigh its costs.
BMW X1
The BMW X1 offers enthusiastic performance, responsive steering, sporty handling, and a comfortable ride. It’s also surprisingly spacious.

Reliability levels are excellent.
Audi Q3
The Q3 is one of the best subcompact luxury SUVs on the market, thanks to its luxurious and spacious interiors, comfortable ride, and exciting performance.
