10 most reliable crossovers

Today in the domestic market there is a huge selection of crossovers, which allows you to find a really reliable copy, and not one. There are low-end models for selection, the middle class of cars is widely represented. A little apart are the luxury car brands, a priori implying impeccable quality and high reliability.

For the greater relevance of our review, the proposals of the secondary market in Russia were studied, the mileage and the opinions of the owners were taken into account. Based on the information on reliability obtained from open sources, the crossover models took certain positions in the rating.

Top 10 most reliable crossovers

10 CHEVROLET NIVA

Our rating would not be complete if we did not pay enough attention to this crossover. It is moderately comfortable, (there are models with the climate system, power steering, etc.), demonstrates high maneuverability and controllability. In general, the power plant and transmission deserve respect - regular maintenance using high-quality consumables ensures long maintenance-free operation.

Compared to imported cars, the Chevrolet Niva suspension is not as reliable, and often requires replacement parts. It should pay tribute to the affordability of spare parts. They are inexpensive, and in comparison with imported counterparts, are much cheaper.

9 LIFAN X60

Unpretentious to maintain, this Chinese crossover demonstrates enviable reliability and practicality. Almost all owners talk about the feeling of fear that they had at the time of the acquisition of Lifan X60. Already after 50,000 km, they began to consider this crossover one of the most reliable (not from the Chinese, but in general!).

During operation on the roads of Russia, the crossover did not cause any particular problems to the owners. There are minor flaws admitted during assembly, the pump may fail (not at all). Quite worthy has proven itself on our roads suspension, and the power unit of the crossover works as a Swiss mechanism (if you change the oil in time). In the secondary market, for a used X60 with a mileage of a hundred, they ask for 350-400 thousand rubles, which is also an indicator of high quality and reliability for a Chinese car.

8 MAZDA CX-5

Another Japanese crossover that became a member of our rating. There is no intent here, and the owners of the presented “SUVs” can confirm that their cars belong to the category of the most practical and reliable in the domestic market. This is a fairly fresh model of the crossover, and over 6 years old to find a car is impossible.

During this time, the Mazda CX-5 was able to very seriously evolve, and all the flaws that were in the first generation, are completely absent in the new models. However, I dare to assure you that the shortcomings were of a weak nature (water entering the rear-view camera, low electrolyte density in the battery, rattling of the hood, etc.), which can be said about the activity of the secondary market. Thus, a 5-year-old crossover with a mileage of 90-95 thousand km is offered at a price of 900,000 rubles and more.

7 RENAULT DUSTER

One of the most reliable and inexpensive crossovers, Duster popular in the automotive market in Russia. Both new models and used cars are in demand in our country. Motors have a decent resource (300 thousand km), which can be extended by timely service and the use of high-quality consumables. In addition, the 1.5-liter diesel engine is very economical - it consumes only 5.3 l / 100km (mixed cycle).

The prices of the secondary market for crossovers of this brand are kept at a good level - for the “not broken” instance by the age of 5-6 years and with a mileage of about 100 thousand km today they are asking about 450,000 rubles. The only weak point that you can point to is the ignition coil of the first generation crossover. It often breaks down due to weak seals.

6 HONDA CR-V

The popularity of this model led to the emergence of the fourth generation of Honda CR-V crossovers. It is caused by more than a reliable design and aggregates, as well as a fairly high level of comfort. The secondary market offers models with an age of more than 10-12 years at a price of about 700 thousand rubles, and cars produced in 2012-2013 cost about a million. The order of prices indicates the high reliability of this car, and this is especially true of the engine and the body of the CR-V.

If the previous owner did not save on maintenance and consumables, in time changed the "otkatvat" their nodes, then the 12-year-old crossover can and the new owner to demonstrate its reliability. After 150 thousand kilometers, failures in attachments (generator, starter, air conditioning) can be observed, which are solved by deep maintenance (replacement of brushes, relays, bearings, etc.).

5 HYUNDAI SANTA FE

The model has already passed three restyling, and continues to be in demand in the Russian market. Santa Fe crossover has a fairly rigid body structure and a large number of active safety systems that provide a high level of protection for the driver and passengers.

Regular maintenance and quality supplies will avoid any complications throughout the operation of the vehicle. The secondary market shows a fairly high price for this reliable crossover. A four-year-old model with a 2.4-liter engine now costs about 1,300,000 rubles, and it was not possible to identify objective reasons for reducing the price of a car with a mileage of 100 thousand km (for cars that did not fall into an accident).

4 VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN

The German car Tiguan has established itself in the Russian market as a reliable and economical small class crossover. During operation, it is quite picky about the quality of the fuel poured. Failure to comply with this rule may cause premature replacement of the high-pressure fuel pump as well as the injectors. This applies equally to gasoline engines and diesel engines.

Owners especially praise the reliability of a six-speed manual - the clutch, on average, changes every 140-150 thousand km. The popularity of Tiguan crossovers with mileage is a confirmation of the reliability of this car. At the same time, the cost of the secondary market remains quite high. So, for a car with a mileage of 100 thousand km (5-6 years) in the usual configuration today asking for 800-900 thousand rubles.

3 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER

Despite its size, the Outlander engine is quite economical and reliable, it successfully carries low-quality fuel, but it is not recommended to abuse it. A sufficiently reliable suspension without repair can go through 200 thousand km - it all depends on the quality of the roads, which in Russia (as in other countries) is different.

In general, the car is quite practical, has a reliable engine, a solid suspension. Some owners, describing the features of operation, noted that with a mileage of 180 thousand km, the car, apart from regular maintenance and replacement of the front struts, did not need to do anything.Models with mileage, as a rule, do not demonstrate critical flaws, and on the secondary market, Mitsubishi Outlander is in demand.

2 NISSAN QASHQAI

The crossover Nissan Qashqai gained high popularity in the Russian market, positioning itself as a family car. This implies not only the comfort and practicality of the cabin, but also unpretentious operation. At the same time, the engine is quite economical (6.2 l. In mixed mode), and the car itself is reliable and does not cause any particular hassle to the careful and attentive owner, who does not miss maintenance work.

The secondary market preserves the attitude of buyers to the model - despite the mileage, the Nissan Qashqai is also in demand, demonstrating engine reliability and excellent body protection against oxidative processes. Few complaints can cause suspension resistance, but this factor is directly dependent on the quality of the roads that you have to drive.

1 TOYOTA RAV4

Mega popular crossover in Russia, differs well-thought-out cabin ergonomics and excellent performance characteristics. It is considered the best choice for an energetic lifestyle, a symbol of success and youth. Throughout its history, Toyota RAV4 was able to retain a certain charm and improve technical parameters.

The suspension of the crossover is considered one of the most reliable and tested. All-wheel drive transmission and powerful engine, which at the same time demonstrates efficiency (gasoline engine 2.0 in the combined cycle "eats" 8 liters), give enough energy and freedom of movement to its owner. High liquidity of the model in the secondary market, ease of maintenance and a large margin of safety have led Toyota RAV4 to the leadership in our rating.
