Five SUV Comparisons Weigh Value, Performance

Toyota’s Land Cruiser and 4Runner share a platform, but the Land Cruiser includes a powerful hybrid and full-time four-wheel drive as standard, while the less expensive 4Runner offers more trim choices and stronger resale value. A review of the redesigned 2027 Kia Seltos praised its styling and roomy front seats but criticized its body roll, disconnected steering and sluggish acceleration, especially given the tested model’s $37,205 price. In the full-size SUV matchup, the GMC Yukon offers more cargo room, engine choices and luxury technology, while the Toyota Sequoia’s standard hybrid delivers more power and torque, better fuel economy and stronger resale value. The Kia Sportage offers more cargo space, greater towing capacity and hybrid options, while the Nissan Rogue has a stronger, more efficient base engine. For subcompact buyers, the Kia Seltos brings a lower price, more cargo room and a turbo engine option, whereas the Honda HR-V has a stronger base engine and better resale value.
