SUVs are the best-selling body type in India today. Buyers love the high seating position, the extra ground clearance for broken roads and tall speed breakers, and the road presence that comes with a taller stance. This page lists every new SUV currently on sale in India, sorted by starting price, so you can compare compact urban SUVs and rugged 7-seaters side by side before stepping into a showroom.

Types of SUVs sold in India

  • Sub-4-metre compact SUVs — city-friendly footprints with SUV styling; the most popular entry point for first-time SUV buyers.
  • Midsize SUVs — more cabin space, bigger boots and stronger engines for highway family duty.
  • Full-size and 7-seater SUVs — three-row practicality for large families and long road trips.
  • Electric SUVs — a fast-growing segment; compare them on our electric cars page.

How to choose the right SUV

Fix your budget first

The on-road price is always well above the ex-showroom figure once road tax, registration and insurance are added — and road tax varies by state and RTO, so the same SUV can cost noticeably different amounts in different cities. If you are shopping in the family sweet spot, start with our new cars under ₹10 lakh list and pick out the SUVs.

Pick the fuel that matches your running

Petrol suits low monthly running; diesel still makes sense for high-mileage highway users where offered; CNG keeps running costs lowest in cities with a filling network; electric works well if you can charge at home or at the office.

Do not skip safety and ownership costs

Check crash-test ratings where published, airbag count and electronic stability control. Budget for insurance too — third-party cover is mandatory under the Motor Vehicles Act, and a comprehensive policy is strongly recommended for a new SUV. Our car insurance guide explains what actually matters in a policy.

Compare before you book

Every SUV card on this page links to a detailed model page with the price range, body type and fuel options, so you can shortlist two or three models and walk into the dealership informed. If you have not locked the body style yet, browse the complete new cars catalogue to weigh SUVs against sedans and hatchbacks on price and practicality.

Prices shown are indicative starting figures and change with variants, cities and manufacturer revisions. Always confirm the final on-road quote with the dealer, and verify the registration details on your RC after delivery.

Frequently asked questions

Which SUV segment should a first-time buyer consider?

Sub-4-metre compact SUVs are the most popular entry point. They give you the high seating position and styling of an SUV in a city-friendly size, at prices closest to hatchbacks and compact sedans. Move up to a midsize SUV if you make regular highway trips with a full family and luggage.

Why does the same SUV cost different amounts in different cities?

Road tax and registration charges are set by each state and collected through the RTO, so the on-road price varies even when the ex-showroom price is identical. Insurance premiums can also differ by city. Always compare final on-road quotes rather than ex-showroom figures.

Which fuel type is best for an SUV in 2026?

It depends on your running. Petrol suits low monthly usage, diesel favours high-mileage highway users where still offered, CNG minimises city running costs, and electric SUVs make sense if you have reliable home or office charging.

Are 7-seater SUVs worth it for a small family?

Usually not, unless you regularly travel with six or more people. Third rows in most SUVs are best for occasional use, and the larger body costs more to buy, insure and run. A midsize five-seater generally serves a small family better.

How are the SUVs on this page ordered?

They are sorted by starting price from most affordable upwards. Each card shows the make, model, body type and indicative price range, and opens a detailed model page where you can see variants and fuel options.
