best small luxury suv australia 2023

Chasing the best small luxury SUV in Australia for 2023? The real contenders are the BMW X1, Audi Q3, Volvo XC40, Mercedes-Benz GLA, Range Rover Evoque and Lexus UX.

The X1 feels the most modern inside with generous space; expect roughly $60k–$75k new and $45k–$65k used. The Q3 is the comfy all-rounder with solid tech, usually $53k–$70k new and $40k–$60k used. The XC40 adds Scandi charm and top safety (plus the Recharge EV), around $54k–$85k new and $40k–$70k used. The GLA is stylish but snug in the back and options snowball; think $66k–$90k new and $45k–$75k used. The Evoque is posh and pretty yet pricier to run; mid-$70k+ new and $50k–$80k used. The UX is quiet, frugal and famously reliable, but the smallest; about $46k–$65k new and $35k–$55k used.
