SUVs Around ₹50 Lakh: Buyers exploring a new full-size premium SUV with good road presence, a six or seven-seater configuration, and multiple powertrain options around ₹50 lakh have various options to choose from. Whether you're looking for long-distance touring capability, refined city driving, or a feature-rich, secure experience, these all-rounders excel across every key parameter. However, if you wish to take on some off-road adventure as well, these SUVs are either available with an AWD or a 4x4 setup, thus elevating your experience.

Around this price, you can choose a mass-market premium SUV or the entry-level luxury segment, which includes BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and others. Some of the popular choices among buyers are the Toyota Fortuner, the MG Gloster, the BMW X1, and others.

Here is a list of the top 5 SUVs that offer balanced, feature-rich, and multiple powertrain choices in the segment:
