Japanese crossovers remain among the most popular cars on the Ukrainian market due to their high reliability and durability. With timely maintenance, many models can cover from 300 to 500 thousand kilometers without serious breakdowns. Autoportal experts have selected the top 5 Japanese crossovers that last longer than competitors.

1. Toyota RAV4: leader in reliability and liquidity

The first place in the ranking is taken by Toyota RAV4. The crossover stands out for its high residual value and stable demand on the secondary market. Atmospheric gasoline engines with a displacement of 2.0 and 2.5 liters, as well as hybrid versions, are known for their significant service life. The suspension is also noted for its durability, and spare parts for repairs are easy to find.

2. Honda CR-V: family crossover with a large margin of safety

Among the most durable models is the Honda CR-V. Gasoline engines with a displacement of 2.0 and 2.4 liters, as well as the 2.2-liter diesel, have a long service life. Manual transmissions and classic automatic transmissions installed before 2014 work flawlessly with timely oil changes. The suspension is well adapted to Ukrainian roads.

3. Mazda CX-5: modern technologies without losing service life

The Mazda CX-5 combines modern technologies and high reliability. Atmospheric SkyActiv engines have a simple design, and the torque converter automatic transmission is considered one of the most reliable in its class. The suspension withstands loads well, although it is tuned somewhat stiffer than competitors.

4. Subaru Forester: all-wheel drive for difficult roads

The top five includes the Subaru Forester of the SJ generation. Permanent symmetrical all-wheel drive and atmospheric boxer engines with a displacement of 2.0 and 2.5 liters ensure the model's durability with proper maintenance. The energy-intensive suspension is well suited for operation on roads with poor surface quality and light off-road conditions.

5. Lexus NX: premium crossover on proven units

The fifth place is taken by the Lexus NX, built on the technical base of Toyota. The model is equipped with proven gasoline and hybrid powertrains, and the electrical components of the hybrid system are noted for their high reliability.
