Is there an SUV (Sport or Suburban Utility Vehicle) in your future?

If there isn’t you will soon be in the minority as these practical, cost-effective compromise vehicles blur the lines that used to exist between the various car and commercial sectors.

Each model listed here is four-wheel-drive, with further splits for Station-Wagon (low-range-equipped) and Luxury ($100K+) models.

We also profile all the 4WD Utes on sale here plus a number of the new work/play Utility Task Vehicles (UTVs).
