Can you recommend a reliable SUV?
I’m looking to buy a medium to small SUV, hybrid preferably. Comfort and economy are important as are good build quality and dependability. I live in the countryside in north west UK. I’m disabled so need to be able to sit up with good back support and heated seat and automatic gearbox. I need decent boot space. My last car was a Volvo XC90 which I had for over 12 years. I loved it but it wasn’t very economical and too big for my current needs.

A Lexus UX sounds like a good choice. It's a very comfortable and efficient hybrid SUV. Lexus is probably the most reliable car brand in the UK – routinely performing well in our annual Satisfaction Index. If you need more space, also look at the bigger Lexus NX. Alternatively, the Toyota RAV4 is a slightly more affordable choice.

Genuinely cheap to run in the real world. Likely to be extremely reliable. Top-spec Lexus UX Takumi is particularly lovely inside.

Electric range of up to 47 miles from plug-in hybrid 450h+. Comfortable and easy to drive. Generous equipment levels. Much improved infotainment.
