Kia Seltos
The Sportage Hybrid wasn’t the only Kia model to get a price reduction. The Seltos, too, had its starting price slashed, taking it from $34,030 to $32,669 - that’s $1,361 worth of savings, which really isn’t bad when you consider everything the Seltos has to offer.
Thanks to this price reduction, the Seltos may just be one of the most attractive SUVs on the market, especially to those buyers who just want a little bit of everything. Style? The Seltos has that. Decently advanced technology? The Seltos has that, too. Utility? You bet.

Toyota BZ4X
With a long-range battery, a fully-fledged smartphone-compatible infotainment system, and a surprisingly spacious cabin, the Toyota bZ4X should have made a greater impact on the current EV market.
Sadly, that just hasn’t been the case, mostly because of the flood of EVs from competing brands that have the Toyota bZ4X beat in more ways than one. Economical, sure - but other EVs generally provide greater value.
At least, that was until the bZ4X’s massive slash in price this year. It shot down from its original $43,070 to $37,070, a price reduction of 14%. This was a great call on Toyota’s part, and effectively placed the bZ4X at the forefront of economically-friendly EVs.

Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid
With a traditional gas engine, electric motors, and a fully rechargeable battery, the Ford Escape Plug-in Hybrid offers fantastic fuel efficiency for the cost-conscious buyer. It’s a great SUV that has plenty to offer in terms of features as well, including a 13.2-inch console touchscreen and safety features like the Ford Co-Pilot360.
While it has not been Ford’s most popular vehicle, the Escape is sure to bring in even more drivers than ever before with its recent drop in price. The standard FWD trim now begins at $38,400, while the Active trim begins even lower at $28,150.
While the latter has fewer features at its disposal, it nonetheless offers all the same power and reliability as the original model.

Honda CR-V
Unlike our first two entries, which have enjoyed only middling success so far, the Honda CR-V has been one of Honda’s top sellers for years. It’s not difficult to see why: it’s a spacious, comfortable SUV that offers refined driving mechanics, advanced safety features, and a number of upscale flourishes and technologies.
Now, more people than ever before will be able to get their hands on a CR-V, since many dealerships now sell it for roughly $1,303 under MSRP. The EX-L trim also enjoys cost reductions of its own, now selling for around $1,846 below MSRP.

Kia Sportage Hybrid
A smooth six-speed transmission and the choice between all-wheel drive and front-wheel drive make the Kia Sportage Hybrid a hybrid choice to contend with, especially given its initial lower starting price when compared to others in its category.
They didn’t stop there, however. Just this year, the Sportage Hybrid enjoyed a price reduction of $1,828. That brought the price down from $30,460 to $28,632, meaning more drivers will be able to get behind the wheel and enjoy the benefits of a fully-fledged hybrid.

Nissan Rogue
Surprisingly spacious and comfy for a compact SUV of its size, the Nissan Rogue is a solid choice even if it isn’t an outstanding one. It’s a reliable machine with a turbocharged 210 hp 3-cylinder engine, agile handling and driving dynamics, and a number of great safety features that should make it especially appealing to families.
Of course, what makes it really attractive today is its price. Supply for the Rogue has been high, and dealers are chomping at the bit to get rid of them - even if it means giving them away at ridiculously low prices.

Hyundai Tucson
With a bold and stylish exterior, plenty of modern tech on the inside, and tons of safety features, the Hyundai Tucson has shaped up to be one of Hyundai’s most popular models. It’s a solid and reliable SUV that many drivers have gotten behind already - and with the recent wave of price cuts, many more are likely to hop on the bandwagon, too.
These price cuts are largely due to Hyundai’s increased support for newer models. That means that vehicles like the Tucson - even those released as recently as this year - have been given a gentle nudge out the door, and dealers are practically dumping them on drivers.

Jeep Grand Cherokee
While many of the SUVs we’ve already mentioned make for great city crawlers, none are quite as adept at handling the off-road as the Jeep Grand Cherokee. Despite the ruggedness inherent in the Jeep brand, the Grand Cherokee is also nothing short of luxurious, with tons of great features and functionality.
Of course, many would rightly be skeptical about the prospect of a “cheap” Jeep, but that’s exactly the case when it comes to the Grand Cherokee. Due to an overabundance of supply, prices are being slashed like crazy, offering up the opportunity for many first-timers to get their hands on a genuine Jeep.

Ford Explorer
The Ford Explorer is one of the more versatile SUVs out there, offering up classic American dependability and ruggedness in a solid package. With a variety of trims available, each with its own strengths, the Explorer gives drivers tons of options, while pretty much every trim comes with three-row seating, a powerful engine, and tons of tech.
Now, the Explorer is easier to obtain than ever before, with the gap between used and new prices becoming increasingly narrower due to Ford’s overabundance of inventory.

Kia Sorento
That’s right - Kia is offering price reductions for not one, not two, but three SUVs, each with their own unique strengths. The Sorento, for example, makes for a great family vehicle, with three-row seating and excellent fuel economy that keeps ownership costs at a manageable level.
Right now, the Sorento is cheaper than ever before. While the Telluride may be a technically better machine, the value offered by the Sorento is almost unmatched, and is definitely worth your consideration.

Chevrolet Traverse
The Chevrolet Traverse is undoubtedly one of the more heavy-duty models on this list. Despite ostensibly being a family SUV, it’s surprisingly rugged and durable, and makes for a great workhorse as well. It’s decently powerful, too, with a turbocharged engine capable of over 300 hp.
Despite the Traverse’s many positive attributes, however, the market currently tends to favor smaller, more fuel-efficient SUVs, meaning larger ones like the Traverse are currently enjoying massive price reductions.

Toyota RAV4
Known for being both practical and stylish in equal measure, the Toyota RAV4 may just be one of the brand’s most successful modern vehicles. It’s a compact crossover that also offers hybrid engine options, meaning it offers greater fuel efficiency than some of the others in its class.
Of course, despite the RAV4’s popularity, Toyota lots are chock-full of the vehicle. In order to make room for others, prices for the RAV4 have been slashed.

Subaru Forester
The Subaru Forester is one of the more versatile SUVs on this list, being just as capable off-road as it is on, while never looking out of place no matter where you take it. Need a reliable family vehicle? The Forester is happy to oblige. Need a solid and rugged off-roader with great performance? Ditto.
Right now, Subaru has some more great vehicles in the pipeline, meaning they’ll need space to store all of them once they finally arrive. You know what that means—the Forester is one of the first of their vehicles to get the proverbial axe to its pricing. That makes it even more appealing than ever before.

Mazda CX-5
The Mazda CX-5 offers a friendlier experience than most other SUVs, especially for drivers who have never owned a large vehicle. It handles more like a regular sedan than a true SUV and comes with a premium interior, tons of modern tech, and plenty of safety features.
In short, it’s the SUV for people who don’t really like SUVs. And now, it’s available for a cheaper price than ever before.

BMW IX
The BMW iX is easily the most expensive and “unobtainable” vehicle on this list. Being the flagship electric SUV of one of the world’s greatest luxury brands pretty much guarantees that. However, while it may still be a little out of reach for many people, recent drops in price have made the BMW iX a little more obtainable for those with the money to spare.
