Best Used Large SUVs Under $25,000

1 of 11

It may seem daunting to set a $25,000 budget and expect a quality SUV with three rows of seats, serious towing capacity, and plenty of room for just about anything inside. Don’t worry — that budget will buy you any number of excellent used large SUVs. Here’s a look at 10 great choices.

2015 Chevrolet Tahoe

The do-it-all Chevrolet Tahoe is big enough to fit the whole family, strong enough to tow a boat or car trailer, and it’s sized just right to fit in a typical suburban garage. Don’t go shopping for a big SUV without looking at this one. Find a Chevrolet Tahoe for sale

2014 Chevrolet Suburban

Take the Chevy Tahoe and add 19 inches split between rear-seat and cargo space. You’ll wind up with the Chevy Suburban, a perennial favorite for good reason. This durable SUV has plenty of space and it can be found well-equipped for around $25,000. Find a Chevrolet Suburban for sale

2016 Dodge Durango

If you find yourself needing space for more than five passengers plus the ability to confidently tow a trailer but don’t necessarily want the bulk of a big SUV, look to the Dodge Durango. You’ll find pleasant driving dynamics and excellent power, especially with the optional V8 engine. Find a Dodge Durango for sale

2015 Ford Expedition

Two versions of the Ford Expedition await — a standard wheelbase and an Expedition EL that’s about 15 inches longer. Both have plenty of power from a torquey twin-turbo V6, plus easy-to-use infotainment and a comfortable ride. Find a Ford Expedition for sale

2015 GMC Yukon

It may be easy to think that the GMC Yukon is merely a Chevy Tahoe with a different grille, but savvy shoppers can find myriad differences. For one, GMC and Chevy grouped options differently, meaning you may find the Goldilocks of used SUV configurations in the GMC. And those looking for more luxury should definitely check out the Yukon Denali. Find a GMC Yukon for sale

2015 GMC Yukon XL

This big SUV is GMC’s version of the Chevrolet Suburban, and like its shorter-length cousin above, the Yukon XL is available in everything from a comfortable nine-seater to a Cadillac-rivaling Yukon Denali. Find a GMC Yukon XL for sale

2017 Nissan Armada

Nissan’s version of the luxurious Infiniti QX80 is nearly as plush as its sibling, but it’s available for a fraction of the price. This big SUV has great power from its V8 and a buttery smooth road. And off-roaders will find serious chops if needed. Find a Nissan Armada for sale

2015 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class

Shop carefully and you’ll find the high-zoot Mercedes-Benz GL-Class with reasonable miles on its odometer for around $25,000. The three-pointed star means fine appointments inside and underhood, especially from the remarkably frugal diesel option. Find a Mercedes-Benz GL-Class for sale

2015 Toyota Sequoia

Toyota’s big SUV is a high-quality, dependable choice with a strong engine and lots of safety features. Its soft ride makes it a great cross-country traveler, and its interior has good stretch-out room for every occupant. Find a Toyota Sequoia for sale

2018 Volkswagen Atlas

The VW Atlas drives like a much smaller SUV than it is, making it a great choice for those who find themselves on busier urban streets or even suburban parking lots. Its interior is remarkably roomy, with good space for adults in all three rows. Find a Volkswagen Atlas for sale
