Since cars of this form factor are very appreciated in our country, this question is very acute for many motorists. To help them, today we will talk about which budget crossovers 2018-2019 in Russia best justify their value. Go.

No. 10 - Nissan Terrano

Price: 854,000 rubles

The emphasis in the appearance of the new generation Nissan Terrano is on aggression. It is expressed through the front optics with a predatory gaze, a massive grille and sharp bumper lines. All this is also observed in the rear of the body - the shape of the bumper fits perfectly into the style, and the image completes the image of the lights.

By default, the crossover is equipped with a 1.6-liter engine with 114 hp. The unit can be paired with a mechanic in five or six gears. Four-wheel drive, in this case, is only in the second case.

No. 9 - Hyundai Creta

Price: 810 000 rubles

Hyundai Creta has a fresh and interesting exterior. This was made possible thanks to an unusual angular silhouette, which is perfectly complemented by lines at the stern. The front is attracted by the radiator grille, made in the form of a chromed hexagon. On the sides it is decorated with brutal lighting equipment. Hyundai Creta's feed is not so interesting and many consider it too narrow, but even so, the appearance of the SUV does not suffer much from this.

The power palette of the Hyundai Creta is not too rich - only two engines. The first is a 1.6-liter unit for 123 horses, which consumes from 6.9 to 7.2 liters and is paired with a 6-speed manual or automatic. The second is a two-liter and 149-horsepower engine, combined with a 6-speed automatic transmission. As an option, there is four-wheel drive in both cases. Due to this, the Hyundai Creta will be an excellent option for all drivers who value cross-country ability.

No. 8 - Renault Kaptur

Price: 870 000 rubles

On the eighth line of our top of the year is the French Renault Kaptur SUV. When creating the car, Renault's proprietary concept of recent years was used, the emphasis of which is on dimensions. Therefore, Renault Kaptur looks massive, but, along with this, spectacular. The front part stands out due to the searchlight type optics and a lattice with a large rhombus. On the rear, a neatly designed bumper stands apart.

The Frenchman has a gamut of powertrains represented by two options. The first is a 1.6-liter engine with 114 hp, which is combined with a 5-speed manual, the second is a 2-liter engine with 143 horses, and a 6-speed manual is selected for it in pair. There is an option to connect an all-wheel drive. It goes well with a high clearance of 204 mm, which will allow the car to cope not only with Russian bumps, but also off-road. All this is complemented by a high-quality suspension and the same steering with a rack and pinion mechanism, so you will not feel discomfort when overcoming obstacles.

No. 7 - Skoda Yeti

Price: 899 000 rubles

Czech SUV Skoda Yeti has a huge army of fans who appreciate the car for its distinctive appearance. The developer understands this, therefore, as a result of restyling, the crossover exterior has not changed much. The most significant change was the emergence of a new grille. All other details, in particular halogen optics, only slightly retouched.

A car of the Czech brand is supplied to the market with a sufficiently rich set of engines - three gasoline units and one turbodiesel. The 1.2-liter 105-horsepower engine, which consumes about 7 liters of fuel, acts as the base engine. It can work both with a 6-speed manual and with a 7-speed automatic. The top version of the gasoline type is designed for four-wheel drive modification of the SUV. It has a volume of 1.8 liters and a power of 152 hp. The most economical option is a diesel with a volume of 2 liters and 140 horses. For 100 km in mixed mode, it consumes only 6.5 liters.

No. 6 - Great Wall Hover H3

Price: 739,000 rubles

The latest restyling gave the Chinese car a more solid and aggressive appearance. This consists in increasing the dimensions of the grille, an updated version of the bumper, as well as a new concept of headlights. All this gives the front of the Great Wall Hover H3 a modern and masculine look. When you look at the car from the side, you will not notice changes compared to its predecessor. At the back, new lights appeared, and the bumper was equipped with a lining that simulates a diffuser.

Under the hood, the Great Wall Hover H3 may be one of two powertrains. The first is 116-horsepower by 2 liters, which absorbs up to 11 liters in the city and about 8.5 liters on the highway, the second is 2-liter by 177 horses, while driving around the city it needs about 13.5 liters per hundred, along the highway - about 10 liters. Since the back of the SUV rests on a dependent spring suspension with a lateral stabilizer, you can be sure that comfort will accompany you on any terrain. This is complemented by reliable crankcase protection and a clearance of 240 mm, so that you will not notice any obstacles.

No. 5 - Chery Tiggo 5

Price: 989,000 rubles

Assist him can 5-speed mechanics or stepless CVT variator. Depending on the terrain, such a motor absorbs from 8.2 to 9.8 liters of fuel per hundred. Due to the fact that the steering mechanism has a rack structure and is also equipped with a hydraulic booster, driving has become even more convenient than before. The independent layout of the front and rear suspension of the McPherson type also affects this.

No. 4 - SsangYoung Tivoli

Price: 998,000 rubles

Externally, the Ssangyoung Tivoli looks fresh and meets all the trends of crossover fashion. The most attention in the exterior is attracted to the radiator grille with a "two-story" design, which goes well with the pointed eye of lighting and a flat roof. If you look at the SUV from the side, you will immediately notice the wheel arches that can accommodate 16-inch wheels in their bowels.

The car is equipped with one of two engines. The first option is a 1.6-liter diesel engine with a capacity of 115 horses and an appetite of 4.3-5.9 liters of fuel per hundred. Its alternative is a 1.6-liter gasoline aspirated, whose performance reaches 128 hp. The appetite of such a motor is larger - from 6.6 to 7.6 liters per hundred. The main advantage of the car, in our opinion, is that the design of the supporting body for 70% consists of high-strength grades of steel. Thanks to this, you can be sure that Ssangyoung Tivoli will serve you for many years and will not begin to “crumble”.

No. 3 - Ford Ecosport

Price: 949 000 rubles

The bronze of our ranking of low-cost crossovers gets Ford Ecosport. This is a subcompact SUV with which the well-known company plans to reach the widest possible audience. In their opinion, the model is suitable for both young people leading an active lifestyle, and pensioners who prefer to relax in their country house. Ford Ecosport's exterior is simply chicane. Due to the unusual performance of headlights, a radiator grill and a company bumper, the car looks more interesting than its colleagues in the form factor.

Ford Ecosport comes with two engine options on the Russian market. The first is a 1.5-liter engine of the Dragon family with 123 hp, its alternative is a 2-liter “four” with 148 hp.

The body of the Ford Ecosport is 80% high-strength metal grades, so reliability is its strength. The advantages of the car include the presence of an independent suspension with MacPherson struts in front. Due to it, bumps and bumps in the road will not be reflected on the steering wheel.

No. 2 - Suzuki Vitara

Price: 989,000 rubles

Suzuki Vitara looks fresh and dynamic, so identifying a car in traffic is not difficult. The model gives a lean appearance with a sloping roof, beveled bumpers and wide wheel arches.

No. 1 - Nissan Qashqai

Price: 988 000 rubles

The ranking of inexpensive crossovers of 2018 in Russia in terms of price and quality is headed by Nissan Qashqai.

Among other crossovers, it looks all the same original and easily identified by a corporate identity called V-motion. Its distinguishing features are “boomerangs” of running lights and a non-standard bumper in the front.

In contact with

Initially, all-wheel drive cars with increased ground clearance, outwardly similar to jeeps, were considered crossovers. However, the first condition, the farther, the less it works: many cars of this class have generally lost four-wheel drive modifications. However, such a cutback in no way led to a reduction in the price - simply their already small off-road capabilities became even more modest.

Due to the sharp and repeated rise in price at the beginning of this year, many crossovers, previously considered budget ones, are now registered in the "over a million" segment.

1. Toyota RAV4 2.0. (146 hp) CVT 2WD Comfort Plus - 1 463 000 rub.

Engine:  1987 cm 3; 146 hp; 187 nm

Temperament:  180 km / h; 11.1 s

Consumption:  7.4 l / 100 km (average)

In the past generation, Toyota offered a choice between short and long versions, but the new RAV4 approved a single standard - with a wheelbase increased to 2660 mm. At the same time, due to the shortened overhangs and deliberately aggressive appearance, the crossover became more lean and athletic: the Japanese are diligently trying to bring the “rafik” out of the female track at least in unisex.

It is a pity that at the same time, deliberate brutality leaked into the salon: the decoration materials seem smooth and unyielding, and the design is too straightforward. But there was an all-wheel drive modification with a 2.2-liter diesel engine. The “Comfort” equipment with a CVT can be considered optimal, including all the necessary options, including climate control, rear parking sensors and a camera.

The SE equipment, with which all-wheel drive modifications begin, is only the second most equipped, but very rich. Version LE is even more attractive, its list of equipment includes access to the cabin without a key, engine start with a button, all-round visibility system, leather interior. However, you will have to pay 10 percent more for it.

The third-generation crossover, introduced in 2012 in Geneva, now looks less spectacular than its predecessor. But with almost the same dimensions it looks bigger, more solid and more expensive.

State “before” and “after”

The New Year price jump mercilessly transferred some cars from the “before” state to the “after” state - this means the border of one million rubles. Skoda Yeti was not lucky in this way in the optimal version 1.4 DSG Ambition, the price of which is set at 1 014 000 rubles, and the Suzuki New SX4, which has risen in price much more - for a complete set with a 1.6-liter engine, CVT and front-wheel drive transmission, you will have to pay as much 1 405 000 rubles.

In the modern world, a good, high-quality and reliable car is not just a fashion accessory but a necessity. We all dream of a fast car, which will become an indispensable assistant, will attract the eyes of passers-by. For any man, his car is an indicator of wealth, courage and self-confidence, and not just a means of transportation. Today we’ll talk not just about cars, but about expensive SUVs that cost tens of thousands of dollars. As it turned out, choosing a cool crossover is much more difficult than a regular budget car, because laying out a large enough amount for a purchase, the buyer hopes that the car will include the maximum benefits.

Off-road vehicles were not always considered steep, there were times when demand for them fell and users preferred more budget models with lower fuel consumption. Such times occurred around the 2000s. SUVs that used to be swiftly swept away immediately from the assembly line suddenly became irrelevant and dusted in garages. Then the price for them began to fall sharply, and sales stood still. But as soon as the economy got on its feet, SUVs again became one of the most desirable cars in the world, in particular, cool Chinese crossovers began to be bought up, which they had not paid much attention to before.

Dear, luxurious crossovers, of course, never left the first lines of ratings. Even when the demand for such cars subsided, they remained a dream for a huge number of drivers, and for many they became a reality. Cool jeeps are created only for owners corresponding to their status who are willing to spend a lot of money on maintenance and fuel. If we talk about the modern world, today such cars are in great demand and affordable for many. The market is expanding, now a cool jeep is in the garage of many motorists and is the main means of transportation for people with great prosperity. In 2019, such cars become more and more produced by such leading companies as Maserati, Lamborghini, Bentley and many others. The cost of such a car can start from 200 thousand dollars. The modern variety of luxury cars allows car lovers to argue for months about which car deserves the title of “coolest jeep.”

Criteria for choosing the coolest SUVs in the world

Today, making the right choice will stop, indeed it is very difficult to make the best crossover or jeep. All modern options belong to the class of reliable, universal and multifunctional. Each model is unique and has its own set of additional features, so finding the perfect jeep is not easy. Many SUVs are very close in their parameters, it is difficult to compete in such a variety of choices, and the level of coolness is often determined by very subjective parameters.

When choosing the coolest SUV in the world, rely on technical specifications as they suit you. Also consider the prestige of the model and the opinions of users about it. Quite often, prestige is much inferior to quality.

Cool off-road SUVs, what are they?

First of all, an SUV is a jeep familiar to all of us, only of a large size, with a frame structure. The SUV has two levels of quality, according to which it is evaluated, it is comfort and patency. Initially, users evaluated exclusively cross-country ability, because the whole system of using such a car was built on it. Off-road vehicles with high traffic have a frame structure, equipped with a traction engine, gasoline or diesel type. Also, SUVs feature a three-door body, the presence of a plug-in all-wheel drive, and also have small-wheel locks.

When buying a crossover, each motorist presents a number of specific, sometimes very individual requirements. Basically, the driver wants to get a reliable, high-quality assembled and durable car that will fully meet its price.

Cars are purchased with different budgets and financial capabilities. Someone takes a car purely for the city, and therefore he needs only the best urban and high-quality crossover. Others, in addition to reliability, pay special attention to passability indicators. And here completely different crossovers appear that will be the best in precisely these parameters.

The concept of "best" is generally subjective in many ways. In order to select the most attractive crossovers, they need to present the relevant requirements, take into account the opinions of experts, and also listen to the reviews of real car owners. It was the summation of these factors that allowed us to formulate the current crossover rating based on the results of 2018 and the first half of 2019. Moreover, you can simultaneously get acquainted with global leaders, as well as study the 10 best crossovers for the current year in the Russian market.

International rating

Let's start with the top 10 best crossovers in 2019 on the international stage. This included the most popular and respectable models in the markets of Europe, Asia, North America, etc.

The list was formed on the basis of several basic parameters and criteria:

• opinion of auto experts;
• owner reviews;
• indicators ;
• statistics of calls to the service center;
• number of serious malfunctions;
• value for money;
• patency indicators, etc.

Within the framework of one overall rating, it will not be possible to focus separately on the best diesel crossovers. As it will not be possible to make a special list of the best crossovers for off-road driving. This is a prefabricated top, where the best models were found according to key characteristics and selection criteria. Many of them are diesel and four-wheel drive, which are used for urban use, others are able to simultaneously drive on asphalt and on quite serious off-road conditions.

If we talk about the best brands among the favorite crossovers, then here experts and car owners gave preference to such brands:

• Honda
• Toyota.
• Range Rover.
• Lexus
• Volkswagen
• Mazda
• Mercedes.
• Porsche

The current rating makes it clear that in the world it was the mid-size crossovers, as well as some representatives of the compact SUV class, that were in priority. Now it will be interesting to meet the winners of this year.

The best crossovers in the world

Compared with the results on the Russian market, the international top 10 is markedly different. This mainly includes mid-range and premium models. But this is easily explained by their high quality, excellent performance and other objective advantages.

Name the best and only one crossover is quite problematic. Therefore, car experts and ordinary motorists with experience in owning one or another SUV, have formed the final top of the best crossovers in terms of price and quality, reliability and reliability, durability and performance.

• Honda CR-V. One of the world's best-sellers, which is sold in almost every country. This crossover is equally successful in Europe, Asia, South and North America. Even in remote Australia, sales are excellent. Price and quality here perfectly interact with each other, and therefore, by the end of 2019, CR-V is deservedly included in the rating, which contains the best crossovers.
• Lexus RX. Representative of the premium SUV segment, which is also widely known throughout the world. It's hard to find a country wherever you meet this Lexus. The model exists since 1998. The current generation has a stunning appearance, excellent technical stuffing, a well-designed and finished interior with high-quality materials. This is an expensive car, which, at the same time, is among the best in price and quality, since the RX turned out to be relatively inexpensive to maintain, and car repair is rarely required. Because of this, not including Lexus in the top of the world's best crossovers would be a serious mistake.
• Range Rover Evoque. It may not be the best crossover in the world, but the Evoque deserves the title of best among compact urban crossovers. The model was excellent in every way. Yes, this is a premium SUV. But every dollar paid for it is fully justified. The machine has excellent technical characteristics, has some of the best safety indicators among cars of all classes in the world. The most attractive in technical terms looks like a 2.0-liter engine with a return of 240 horsepower. It is reliable and durable, extremely rarely breaks down and can easily travel over 400 thousand kilometers.
• BMW X4. In Russia, this is not the most popular SUV among BMW models. But in the international arena X4 is rapidly gaining popularity. The car appeared only in 2018, but now many experts believe that this is the best crossover of the sample in 2019. Such parameters as price and quality are at a solid level, but the car is far from being in the budget segment itself. If a person can afford such a crossover, he certainly will not regret the choice. This is also a great option for those who are interested in the best and most passable four-wheel drive crossovers among mid-size SUVs.
• Honda Crosstour. The somewhat unusual appearance of this crossover from Honda does not allow it to be classified as an SUV at first glance. Many persistently call him. But if you look at the technical specifications, look at the ability to pass the most difficult sections of the terrain, doubts about the crossover of this model will quickly disappear. A very good and interesting project performed by the Japanese company Honda. If Crosstour is bought with an eye on urban use, it is preferable to choose a complete set with a 2.5 liter engine. For off-road and fast driving, a 3.5-liter engine is more suitable.
• Volkswagen Tiguan. Despite its modest and sometimes restrained appearance, this car climbed to the highest positions in the world ranking. Really worthy car for relatively little money. If you are really interested in such characteristics as price-quality, then look for yourself the latest modifications to Volkswagen Tiguan cars. According to a number of parameters, these are objectively the best crossovers as of mid-2019. Moreover, Volkswagen provides a choice between performance and maximum efficiency. The same engine with a volume of only 1.4 liters does not make the Tiguan slow-moving, but it actively saves fuel. And there is a powerful 2.0-liter version, when you press the gas in which the crossover literally breaks down. Amazing performance indicators of motors with such modest volumes.
• Mazda CX-5. The car attracts with its bold, aggressive and sometimes sporty design. Moreover, when you are driving, these feelings do not disappear. The Japanese crossover demonstrates confident behavior on the pavement and beyond. Although objectively the CX-5 model was created with an eye to urban operation, and not at all on the road. But off-road trials have proven that Mazda can help out in difficult situations.
• Toyota RAV4. A car that hardly needs to be introduced. This model from the Japanese company Toyota is equally successfully sold in Russia and the United States of America, is a successful crossover for Asia and is also actively sold in distant Australia. The car is suitable for all weather and roads. With all its objective advantages, Toyota RAV4 has a very attractive price tag. Yes, it goes beyond one million rubles and in expensive trim levels tends to the mark of 2 million, but when compared with many competitors, the RAV4 really costs a little, providing maximum opportunities for its owner. Experts believe that Toyota's RAV4 deserves third place in the world ranking.
• Mercedes GLA. An expensive premium crossover from Mercedes. The German auto concern has always been able to create luxury cars. The GLA model was no exception. Immediately after its debut, this car quickly began to gain popularity. It is currently in the top 3 most sought-after crossovers in Europe. Although the car market has only existed for 3 years, since sales started in 2016. The automaker offers its creation in a wide variety of trim levels. And it’s not a shame to take even the basic versions, since they are well equipped and combined with high reliability motors.
• Porsche Macan. Despite a wide list of competitors, car experts and ordinary motorists put in the first place in the international ranking the creation of Porsche. The model first appeared on sale in 2013. Porsche managed to carry out a planned restyling, updating the exterior, adding changes to the interior, as well as upgrading the technical specifications. As a result, Macan has become more dynamic, economical and brighter. It is difficult to find any weaknesses in this crossover. Only a high price tag does not allow the car to become one of the leaders in sales. But value for money is optimal here.

The current international rating conducted at the end of 2018-2019 cannot give a concrete answer to which crossover is better to take. This is only the opinion of motorists and car experts, which are based on subjective assessment, performance indicators and technical aspects.

Everyone must decide which car to stop. To do this, prioritize, decide on an affordable budget and properly manage it.

Rating of the best crossovers in Russia

Surely, a consolidated rating of 2018-2019, which includes the best crossovers available and officially sold in the Russian Federation, will turn out to be much more interesting and relevant for Russian consumers.

It is the ratings that motorists often rely on to minimize the list of potentially suitable cars. This makes it possible to get closer to buying the long-awaited crossover and not be disappointed in the choice made. But keep in mind that ratings should not be the only tool for search and selection. Take into account personal preferences and requirements, build on the possibility of further maintenance and maintenance of the machine.

A lot of people are looking for diesel crossovers, because they demonstrate the best indicators of fuel consumption. And in 2019, the demand for diesel ICEs has noticeably increased. But the advantages in economy will be manifested only under the condition of active use. Ceteris paribus, diesel crossovers are more expensive than a gasoline-powered counterpart. The difference is sometimes several thousand dollars is significant for the buyer.

The current rating includes crossovers, which in most cases are offered with. These are the most popular, popular and well-established models. Crossovers, who are in the list of the best, have optimal performance. At the same time, the Russian rating consists mainly of mid-budget models and inexpensive crossovers. But representatives of the premium SUV were not included in the final list.

Kia sportage

One of the few matches in the international and Russian ratings. But the Korean crossover really deserves to be on the list of the best cars of its class. This is a machine with a modern appearance, advanced technology, high-performance engines. Kia Sportage has also received high safety ratings and offers an excellent level of comfort for the driver and passengers.

The choice in favor of the Kia Sportage is relevant for those who need a roomy family crossover that will save the family budget. Depending on the configuration, in the combined cycle Sportage can consume no more than 10 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers. The most economical versions in the country consume about 5 liters per hundred. Not just because the car has won about 30 prestigious awards over the years of its existence in the market.

A somewhat unexpected crossover, which was on the list of the best SUVs in the Russian market. The car is more likely a SUV, designed purely for urban use. This is a car with increased ground clearance and a plastic protective body kit around the entire perimeter of the body.

Peugeot 2008 is positioned as a city car, allowing the most economical ride in the city. But driving off-road is pointless, since the French SUV is not intended for such purposes.

Experts praised the build quality, which for Peugeot was a real breakthrough after frank failures made literally 5-10 years ago. Consumers began to actively change their minds regarding French crossovers for the better. And not in vain, since Peugeot 2008 fully justifies its value. The car is initially inexpensive, and in Russian conditions feels great. A roomy interior, a comfortable fit and a decent level of security explain how this crossover falls into the final rating.

Renault Duster

One of the most budgetary European crossovers, which quickly became one of the most popular and sought after in the domestic market. Some even call Duster a full-fledged compact SUV. If we take the all-wheel drive version as a basis and equip it with a diesel turbocharged engine, such a statement will be quite fair.

Renault Duster from the French automaker combines two attractive qualities for a Russian driver. This is a low price and excellent cross-country performance. With poor quality roads, it’s not scary to get stuck on such a crossover or find yourself in a difficult place.

Under the hood are gasoline and diesel engines. The salon does not have any sophisticated solutions, it is made quite simply, but with high quality. It is important to understand that this is not a premium SUV, but an affordable workhorse. Having paid about 800 thousand rubles, the consumer gets the perfect crossover for that kind of money.

Citroen C3 Aircross

And again, the representative of the French car industry in the ranking of the best crossovers in the Russian market. This already says a lot, since the level of production and quality of cars produced in France is growing rapidly. At the same time, cars are attractive for their cost, low-cost operation and attractive design.

In the case of the C3 Aircross, we see a comfortable and original urban SUV. It's hard to miss such a car in heavy traffic. The cabin is spacious, it is made with high quality and tasteful.

This is a car for a modern and young resident of the metropolis, as well as an excellent crossover for the whole family. Moreover, the price is more than adequate. About 1.2 million rubles are being asked for a French SUV.

The Tucson model of the new generation, which was known in the previous version as ix35, exceeded the expectations of many skeptics. The novelty, which has already been successfully sold on the Russian market, offers a wide list of objective advantages and strengths.

It is offered with a wide palette of power units, has a comfortable interior, solid equipment even in the basic configuration, extremely nice interior and thoughtful ergonomics. The decoration clearly shows the use of quality materials. The Koreans were clearly not trying to save.

Hyundai's new Tucson generation has a brighter, more expressive and sometimes aggressive appearance. This immediately liked the experts and attracted additional attention to the crossover from a young audience.

As a result, the Korean automaker was able to create one of the most successful projects in recent years in the crossover category. The machine is economical, reliable and dynamic. At the same time, the price tag starts at around 1.4 million rubles. Whether it is a lot or a little, judge for yourself.

Nissan Qashqai

The Nissan Qashqai crossover in the first generation has gained popularity in the Russian market and has become one of the best-selling cars of its class.

Experts had high hopes for the second generation, and were not mistaken. The Japanese radically changed the appearance of the crossover, but retained some subtle features that allow you to connect the Qashqai of the first and second generation.

Almost everything has improved, from the spaciousness of the cabin and safety, ending with fuel consumption indicators and a set of equipment in the basic configuration of the Japanese compact crossover. Here you can confidently say that Qashqai fully justifies its value. And the price tag just turned out to be quite adequate. For such a car, official dealers ask from 1.2 million rubles.

Renault Kaptur

If you want to get something similar to the Renault Duster, only in a modern shell, with a prettier interior and advanced technology, choose Kaptur.

And again, the French automaker is surprising. And in a good sense of the word. Their new compact crossover is characterized by excellent efficiency, high build quality and the presence of literally everything that a budget crossover buyer might want. Yes, you should not expect premium equipment from Kaptur or any super-efficient engines. It is a compact SUV for urban use.

If we compare the original appearance and the characteristics best suited for urban use with price tags, nobody will be surprised at the fact that the Renault Kaptur model falls into the final rating among the best crossovers in 2019. You will have to pay for this car from 900 thousand rubles.

This car of the Japanese automaker confidently takes third place in the ranking. The new corporate design has made the latest generation CX-5 impudent, aggressive and sporty in appearance, comfortable and safe inside.

The CX-5 is equally well suited for urban, highway and country road use. Everywhere you will feel confident, comfortable and safe. Ergonomics thought out to the smallest detail, high-quality interior materials, an informative dashboard and a modern multimedia system are aimed at creating maximum comfort for the driver and all its passengers.

Mazda's CX-5 is also characterized by excellent dynamics, which combines favorably with moderate engine appetite. The price of 1.6 million rubles seems too small for such a crossover. Cars really look more expensive than they really are. And this is another powerful argument in favor of buying a Mazda CX-5.

Mitsubishi outlander

In Russia, the first generation of the Outlander model is still highly regarded. And currently, the third generation after the planned restyling is relevant.

The car is one of the most popular and sold in the Russian Federation and CIS countries. This is not necessary to be surprised, because the machine has all the necessary characteristics for this.

Outlander received enviably high scores for the protection of adult passengers and children as part of the latest safety tests, demonstrated exemplary active safety indicators, and also managed to surpass many recognized pedestrian protection leaders.

Stylish and slightly futuristic design, a spacious interior, a large luggage compartment and excellent engines allow you to enjoy comfort and spend a minimum of fuel.

Toyota RAV4

Many car experts believe that this particular car deserves to take first place among the best crossovers in the Russian market. And a number of motorists support them.

This Japanese SUV does not need additional presentation or advertising. Toyota has done everything possible to associate their project with high quality, superior technical specifications and reliability. The initial price of 1.5 million rubles is unlikely to scare a potential buyer.

Choose a crossover from this list or look for alternative options, you decide.

Buying a crossover is fraught with many difficulties, because it is necessary with decent technical characteristics, adequate economy, sufficient cross-country ability. Plus, the operational cost, which provides for the cost of maintaining the car, plays an important role.
