Some rule with brute force, some with charm… (some things never change). But the best SUVs will act as your noble steed, whether you’re asserting dominance at the traffic lights or ferrying the family to and from the all-you-can-eat banquet in town.
Which one will be your next king or queen? You decide.
All Hail the Newcomers!
The throne will always be challenged. The newest SUVs will make their presence known and compete for the people’s attention and admiration. Various stunts will be pulled. Here are the latest contenders for your crown:
Jeep Avenger Summit – The Power-Hungry Prince

Not yet king, but sharpening the sword. This is the SUV born just outside the palace walls, now storming the gates. There’s no tiptoeing through the ranks with this one. Sculpted good looks and Jeep’s off-road DNA have produced a compact brute hungry for a riot.
- Example PCH Deal:
Initial Rental - 9 months
Contract Length - 23 months
Annual Mileage - 10,000
£284.80 inc VAT p/m*
Vauxhall Frontera – The Baron of Budget

The Frontera might not arrive to the sound of trumpets. Maybe it bluffs its way into the SUV society and arrives at the royal gala with neon trims and a subwoofer… but it is cheap. Plus, it's a hybrid, so there’s no need to choose your allegiances there.
- Example BCH Deal:
Initial Rental - 12 months
Contract Length - 35 months
Annual Mileage - 10,000
£224.43 + VAT p/m*
The Queen’s Carriages
For those who rule the realm from a raised driving position, with a steady hand and an eye for child-seat compatibility. Not built for battle, but for backseat diplomacy, nursery-bound parades, and the odd royal swerve through Aldi’s car park.
SEAT Arona – The Duchess of the Drop-Off

The SEAT Arona is the loyal lapdog of the royal fleet. Elegant and composed in rush hour, it trots through traffic like a noble on patrol. But when chaos strikes in the form of a rogue tantrum or a forgotten lunchbox, it’s swift enough to nip through the madness and reclaim its rightful place at the top of the school lay-by.
- Example PCH Deal:
Initial Rental - 9 months
Contract Length - 35 months
Annual Mileage - 8,000
£275.75 inc VAT p/m*
Citroën C3 Aircross – The Viscountess of Versatility

Proudly unconventional and ready to adapt at the drop of a crown, the Citroën C3 Aircross doesn’t care for tradition. Instead, it prioritises the little things such as seats that slide, tilt, and fold like a well-trained jester, and fabrics that feel Parisian. It’s the royal’s most surprising overachiever - and it knows it.
- Example PCH Deal:
Initial Rental - 12 months
Contract Length - 47 months
Annual Mileage - 10,000
£271.79 inc VAT p/m*
The King’s Warhorses
Not every SUV was bred for the frontline. Some exist for more noble quests. Polished to within an inch of their grille, radiating power and presence. These are the King’s Warhorses - armoured for attention, tech-laden for ego, and ready to charge into a service station that serves oat milk lattes and kale crisps.
Volkswagen T-Roc – The Peacock Paladin

Clad in shining alloys and smug self-confidence, the T-Roc struts through the royal courtyard like a knight who just got verified on Instagram. It’s all sculpted chrome and smouldering LED eyes, with a digital cockpit that puts you in command of your personal kingdom.
- Example BCH Deal:
Initial Rental - 12 months
Contract Length - 23 months
Annual Mileage - 10,000
£228.48 + VAT p/m*
Nissan Juke – The Court Jester

The Juke has always ridden into battle sideways. Once mocked, now misunderstood. It’s still slightly weird, still wonderful - just better dressed. Beneath the shiny new armour, it’s far more refined than the jester suit lets on. Think art school graduate turned royal advisor.
- Example PCH Deal:
Initial Rental - 12 months
Contract Length - 47 months
Annual Mileage - 8,000
£250.33 inc VAT p/m*
