Dependable SUVs Built for the Long Haul

As you take your SUV through your daily tasks – work, school, picking kids up from practice or going to the grocery store – the last thing you want is to have your routine interrupted by a vehicle not running as it should.Even new vehicles can have issues, and they are only discovered after being driven, even for a short while.These are the kinds of issues that J.D.

Power tries to get to the bottom of in its owner surveys.The J.D.Power Quality and Dependability score is based on owner feedback in the first 90 days of ownership.

The following SUVs from both luxury and non-luxury brands stand out for their reliability scores, rated on a 100-point scale.A J.D.Power predicted reliability score of 91-100 is considered the Best, 81-90 is Great, 70-80 is Average and 0-69 is Fair and considered below average.

Keep in mind that the scores on our site are frequently updated as new expert reviews and data become available.

2025 Buick Enclave

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 83/100

The Buick Enclave is a comfortable and spacious midsize SUV that has been fully redesigned for the 2025 model year.

It seats seven across three rows.With the second and third rows folded, the Enclave provides up to 97 cubic feet of cargo space, accessed via a standard hands-free liftgate.One area of improvement for the Enclave is its cabin, which has gone from unrefined to upscale and plush, bordering on luxury.

For 2025, Buick has replaced the Enclave’s stout V6 with a turbo-four.Though output is similar on paper, the engine is rough and loud under hard acceleration, though you don’t hear much from the well-insulated cabin.Thankfully, the Enclave’s comfort-oriented ride quality carries over.

The Enclave is backed by a three-year/36,000-mile limited warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty.

2024 Jeep Wrangler

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 84/100

The Jeep Wrangler has gone through a much-needed mid-cycle refresh for the 2024 model year.It gains updated interior and exterior styling while retaining its iconic looks and off-roading prowess.

This Jeep has a well-built cabin, comfortable front seats and an intuitive infotainment system.It is housed in a new 12.3-inch touch screen and includes standard wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto.

It offers a lineup of powerful engines, including a turbo-four and potent Hemi V8, but the standard V6 engine is a venerable power unit that has been available for a number of years.The Wrangler, however, suffers from subpar fuel economy, handles poorly on pavement and isn’t the most practical SUV for daily driving.Once you get out on the trail, though, those concerns fade away.

Jeep provides the Wrangler with a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty.

Porsche Cars Canada, Ltd.|

2025 Porsche Macan

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 84/100

The Porsche Macan is a refined and athletic small luxury SUV.It might be one of the more expensive options in the segment, but it justifies that with a well-built cabin and dynamic performance worthy of the Porsche name.Other small luxury SUVs have nicer interiors, and the Macan’s cargo space is below average for the segment, but it provides a driver-focused cockpit with intuitive infotainment features.

The Macan is all about the driving experience.It comes standard with a potent turbocharged four-cylinder engine and is available with robust twin-turbo V6 engine in higher trims.

Certain trims come with upgraded suspension systems, turning the Macan into even more of a performance-focused machine.The Macan is backed by a four-year/50,000-mile limited warranty.

Cadillac|

2024 Cadillac XT6

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 84/100

While the Macan places performance over space, the Cadillac XT6 packs a ton of room for up to seven people and their gear.With the second and third rows folded, it provides up to 78.7 cubic feet of cargo space, accessed via a standard power liftgate.With the second-row seats in use and the third row folded down, the XT6 provides 43.1 cubic feet of cargo space.

The XT6 comes standard with a turbo-four engine that lacks passing power on the highway.

It is available with a V6 that has more punch but does not feel particularly refined, especially for a luxury vehicle.

When equipped with the V6 engine, it is capable of towing up to 4,000 pounds, which is enough for a small boat and trailer.The XT6 comes with a four-year/50,000-mile limited warranty and a six-year/70,000-mile powertrain warranty.

2025 BMW X6

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 84/100

The BMW X6 is like the refined muscle-car version of a luxury SUV.It trades cargo space (a maximum of 59.6 cubic feet) and rear passenger headroom for a head-turning, coupe-like profile, and it has handling dynamics that combine refinement and agility.This is especially true in the M60i trim, which features upgraded brakes and an adaptive suspension system.Both the xDrive40i and M60i come with wireless device charging and an intuitive touch-screen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

The X6 xDrive40i comes with a 375-horsepower mild-hybrid turbocharged inline-six.

The M60i features a 523-horsepower twin-turbo V8.Both of these engines provide plenty of power for an engaging driving experience.The X6 is backed by a four-year/50,000-mile limited warranty.

2025 GMC Acadia

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 84/100

The GMC Acadia was fully redesigned for the 2024 model year, and it carries over into 2025 with minimal changes.Recently redesigned vehicles do not always exhibit the strongest reliability scores, but that’s not the case for the Acadia.

It also comes with a long list of standard features, including a host of driver-assistance technology and an intuitive 15-inch touch screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Every Acadia has the same engine: a turbocharged four-cylinder that makes 328 horsepower.It’s fuel efficient and has enough getup for most driving scenarios, though there are times when it could use a bit more motivation.It also makes a lot of noise under hard acceleration.This powertrain is backed by a five-year/60,000-mile warranty.The Acadia also comes with a three-year/36,000-mile basic warranty.

BMW of North America, LLC.|

2024 BMW X4

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 85/100

The BMW X4 is an athletic compact luxury SUV with sharp cornering abilities and a lineup of potent engines.The downside of this coupe-like profile is a small cargo hold for the class.It has 50.5 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats folded and just 18.5 cubic feet with the rear seats in use.

A power liftgate comes standard.

The X4’s base engine is a 248-horsepower turbo-four.The upgraded M40i has a turbo six-cylinder that makes 382 horsepower.It has a mild electric-assist system that allows for a zero-to-60 time of just 4.4 seconds.The X4 has engaging, sporty handling, but if you are not a driving enthusiast, you’ll likely find the ride quality to be firm.BMW backs the X4 with a four-year/50,000-mile limited warranty.

2024 Alfa Romeo Stelvio

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 85/100

The Alfa Romeo Stelvio is an athletic small luxury SUV with plenty of standard features for the price.It comes standard with a 280-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder engine and is backed by a four-year/50,000-mile limited warranty.The engine routes power to the rear wheels or available all-wheel drive through an eight-speed automatic transmission.

The Stelvio’s downsides include a tight cargo area and subpar cabin quality, but if you are a driving enthusiast, this Alfa is a good option.The Stelvio receives several updates for the 2024 model year, including new headlights and a new digital instrument panel.It also has a lower base price for the 2024 model year.

American Honda Motor Co., Inc.|

2025 Honda Passport

Hyundai Motor America|

2025 Hyundai Venue

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 85/100

The Hyundai Venue is a subcompact SUV that makes great use of its small footprint.It has solid headroom and terrific driver visibility.With the rear seats folded, the Venue provides 31.9 cubic feet of cargo space, which is below average for the class.The Venue is an affordable option in the segment and gets stellar economy ratings of 29/33 mpg city/highway.Standard features such as an 8-inch touch screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and a suite of driver-assistance technology all contribute to the Venue’s value proposition.

The Venue has a 121-horsepower engine that makes a lot of noise under hard acceleration.

There’s also no all-wheel-drive option, but that simplicity potentially pays dividends in dependability.The Venue is backed by Hyundai’s 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty.

General Motors|

2025 Chevrolet Blazer

J.D.

Power Reliability Score: 86/100

However, the Blazer falls short of class leaders in other ways.It’s loaded with low-rent materials, and it’s short on passenger and cargo space.The Blazer provides 64.2 cubic feet of cargo space, which falls short of some rivals in the class.It’s covered by a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty.

Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc.|

2024 Toyota 4Runner

J.D.

Power Reliability Score: 86/100

Few vehicles have been on the market as long as the current generation of the 4Runner.Being long in the tooth, though, is not always a bad thing, especially when it comes to reliability.

With more years on the market, an automaker can work out the bugs on a powertrain or other components.

4Runner owners relish in the fact they are driving a “dated” vehicle.The basic tech always works, and there are real buttons and dials instead of key controls baked into a touch screen’s menu.

The 4Runner is designed to master the trail, and that means a robust construction, inside and out.The V6 makes decent power, but it is not as lively as some rivals’ engines.The 4Runner is backed by a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty.It also comes with a three-year/36,000-mile limited warranty.

Adrian Taylor | U.S.News & World Report

2025 Ford Bronco Sport

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 88/100

Cadillac|

2025 Cadillac XT5

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 88/100

The Cadillac XT5 is a midsize luxury SUV that provides ample passenger and cargo space for a vehicle its size.

Despite its generous cabin dimensions, the interior quality is lacking for a luxury vehicle.It comes standard with a small (for the class) but intuitive 8-inch touch screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.It also comes with a Bose audio system, a Wi-Fi hot spot and four USB ports.

There are two engine options in the XT5: the base turbo-four and an available V6.

Neither engine is very refined, and both can be noisy under hard acceleration.The XT5 is backed by a four-year/50,000-mile limited warranty and a six-year/70,000-mile powertrain warranty.

Zach Doell | U.S.News & World Report

2024 GMC Terrain

General Motors|

2025 Chevrolet Equinox

J.D.Power Reliability Score: 88/100

The Chevrolet Equinox has been fully redesigned for the 2025 model year.

The Equinox comes standard with a turbo-four paired with a continuously variable transmission.This combination makes for just adequate acceleration.The handling is tuned for comfort above all else.The Equinox is backed by a three-year/36,000-mile limited warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty.

Nissan North America, Inc.|
