The best Petrol SUV models by Cars-Data.com Score

239 Petrol SUV models carry a Cars-Data.com Score, spread across 10 price classes from €9,300 to €600,084. Each car is scored against the others in its own price class — not against the whole catalogue.

So this list answers "which car most outclasses its price peers", not "which is best outright": a €9,300 car can and does outrank a €600,084 one. Prices are shown on every row so you can see which class each result came from.

How this ranking is built

The Cars-Data.com Score is a weighted composite of five measured dimensions — performance, efficiency, eco, value and practicality — each expressed as a percentile against cars in the same body type, fuel type and price class. The weights are ours and they are published. One variant per model is listed: where several trims qualify, the highest-scoring one represents the model. Cars without enough measured data to score are not ranked rather than being given a guessed score.
