There's no question that buying an SUV can be pricey, and even when shopping the used car market for discounted vehicles, buyers will likely be spending more than they would on a sedan or hatchback. That's why it's important to get all the features and performance possible out of an SUV at a reasonable price.<\/p>\n

MSN Autos recently took a look at some of the top SUVs available on the market that can deliver great value without breaking the bank.<\/p>\n

The Toyota<\/a> RAV4 and Honda<\/a> CR-V are two entry-level SUVs that have sold well for their respective companies over their lifespan. While the news source claims that both offer buyers good value, the RAV4 is a bit more flexible, allowing drivers the option to upgrade from a four-cylinder engine to a six-cylinder while the CR-V is four-cylinder only.<\/p>\n

Ford<\/a> had two entries on the list, but both models are aimed at very different segments of SUV buyers. The Ford Flex offers exactly what it's name implies: flexibility. This model is big enough for families to be seated comfortably, but also offers a more practical fuel economy rating and aggressive styling than more traditional SUVs. Meanwhile, the Ford Expedition is what many consider to be "traditional." Offering a ton of roominess, cargo and storage capacity, plus the ability to be outfitted for off-roading, the Expedition is a classic SUV that helped kick off the big car trend several years ago.<\/p>\n

Chevrolet<\/a> was also well-represented on the list, with the Equinox, Traverse and Tahoe all making the cut. The news source cited the Equinox's roominess and size as a major factor in the recommendation, noting that it offers near-midsize level space at a compact price. The Chevy Traverse is aimed at larger families, with seating for eight and a range of optional electronics upgrades that can make long hauls a bit easier. The Traverse is closely related to the Buick<\/a> Enclave and GMC<\/a> Acadia, which the news source also recommends. Yet the Tahoe may be the ultimate vacation vehicle, with class-leading fuel economy and enough towing capacity to haul a boat or trailer. Available upgrades can also bring the Tahoe close
\nto many luxury SUVs.<\/p>\n

There's no shortage of options for buyers seeking value in the SUV market. Those who shop the used car lots can likely find a few of these highly-praised models for even further reduced prices.
