10 Reasons to Buy an SUV

SUVs not only look great, but they're also practical vehicles. Initially, they appealed to folks who needed them for work-related tasks, but now there's an SUV tailored for every kind of driver. Here are the top reasons why you should consider buying an SUV.

  1. More Space

    2. Are you the kind of person who often needs to haul a lot of stuff around? Do you often go on weekend road trips with your camping gear or skis? If your answer is yes, getting an SUV is worth considering. SUVs offer plenty of room for all your gear, much more than you'd find in a typical sedan trunk. Adding cargo carriers, roof racks, or bike racks if you need extra space is easy. With an SUV, you'll always be ready for your next big adventure.

  2. Better Ride Height

    3. If you like having a clear road view, you should choose an SUV over a sedan. With an SUV, spotting potholes and cracks becomes a breeze, helping keep your ride in good shape longer. An elevated ride height also makes it easy to find parking spots; no more circling looking for that elusive open space.

  3. Larger Seating Capacity

    4. Do you love traveling with the whole family or with friends? A sedan just won't cut it when you have a lot of passengers and gear to carry. Luckily, SUVs typically offer great passenger capacity. For example, the Mitsubishi Outlander offers three rows of seating and can accommodate up to seven people.

  4. More Fuel Efficient Than Before

    5. While SUVs used to have a reputation for being gas guzzlers, they've stepped up their game lately regarding fuel efficiency. That means you'll save money on gas over time as long as you take care of your vehicle. You can choose a hybrid model like the Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-in Hybrid for more fuel efficiency. This vehicle has an electric-only range of 38 miles. It's also compatible with DC fast-charging.

  5. Off-roading

    6. If weekends are made for exploring nature's wonders, you'll want a vehicle to keep up with your adventurous spirit. That's where SUVs shine. Sedans aren't built for rugged terrain. However, many SUVs, like the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, come with standard four-wheel drive, making it effortless to tackle rugged trails. With their robust build and traction control systems designed for off-roading, these vehicles let you embrace any terrain without hesitation.

  6. Better Towing Capacity

    7. Some cars can tow light loads but usually struggle under heavy weights because they're not built for it. In contrast, SUVs can handle heavier towing tasks without breaking a sweat. The Outlander can tow up to 2,000 pounds when properly equipped, which should be enough for most drivers' needs.

  7. More Pet-Friendly

    8. If you have pets, it's natural that you would like to take your furry friends with you when you go on a trip. However, it would be challenging to do so if you have a small vehicle. Fortunately, SUVs make transporting pets easier thanks to spacious cargo areas where they can comfortably sit or lie down during rides. If you have a large dog that needs more room, all you need to do is fold down some seats.

  8. Different Sizes and Sub-Segments

    9. These days, SUVs come in all sizes tailored for every kind of driver. If you're a city dweller living alone or with a small family, a crossover like the Eclipse Cross is more suitable than a large SUV. If you plan to build a family soon or expand your current one, choosing a bigger, more spacious SUV like the Outlander is a good move. This vehicle provides ample storage space for groceries or outdoor gear trips.

  9. More Car for the Money

    10. With their height advantage and extra cargo space, SUVs offer excellent value for money and great resale value. You can purchase a used or certified pre-owned SUV if money is tight.

  10. Exciting Designs

    11. Once seen as just practical family vehicles, SUVs have become attractive choices, rivaling sedans and coupes. For example, the Eclipse Cross boasts an appealing, sporty design that will surely catch people's attention. It features bold body lines, a sleek lighting design, and a roofline resembling a rear coupe.
