1. Jeep Renegade diesel

The Jeep Renegade was a milestone for the compact SUV segment in Brazil when it arrived in 2015. It was a well-finished, well-equipped model and had good build quality, in addition to being the only one with a turbodiesel engine option.

Our recommendation is precisely the models with this 2.0 Multijet engine. As the Renegade is a heavy car, the 1.8 E.Torq disappoints in performance and consumption.

The Jeep Renegade diesel achieves good consumption averages and has the benefit of all-wheel drive. In the early years this engine existed throughout the line, the entry-level Sport model already came with stability control, fog lights, alloy wheels, dual airbag and reverse sensor.

2. Ford EcoSport 1.5

The Ford EcoSport created the compact SUV segment and needed to improve a lot in the second generation to remain relevant. In the range of R$ 70 thousand it is possible to find models of the last phase, launched in 2017, with the 1.5 137 engine, conventional automatic transmission and improvements in finishing.

This face-lift ended the problematic Powershift gearbox, brought recalibrated suspension and even reduced aerodynamic coefficient. Every EcoSport already came with seven airbags, traction control, on-board computer, Sync3 multimedia center and reverse sensor.

3. Renault Captur 1.6

The Renault Captur is an SUV that was not a great success when new, but it is a good used option. It was an alternative to the Duster brother, exchanging the adventurous look for a more sophisticated design and a more abundant equipment package.

A great asset of the Captur against the Ford EcoSport and the Jeep Renegade is in the interior space. Its cabin rivals medium models and takes 5 adults in comfort, in addition to having a generous trunk of 437 liters.

Our recommendation is the models with a 1.6 engine, especially the Intense. This engine has Nissan origin and good reliability. The Captur comes standard with 4 airbags, ramp start assistant, face-to-face key and alloy wheels. The top-of-the-line model adds a front armrest, automatic air conditioning, fog lights, multimedia center, reversing camera and rain and twilight sensors.

4. Citroën C4 Cactus

The fame of making problematic cars was already a thing of the past for French brands in 2018. The Citroën C4 Cactus is an example of this, the compact SUV came with a six-speed automatic transmission from Aisin and uses the 1.6 16v engine, one of the brand’s most praised.

The bad reputation of the past helped to devalue the model, which can be found in the range of R$ 70 thousand even in newer units than rivals. This set of the 1.6 engine of 118 hp with the automatic transmission does not inspire performance, but meets family demands.

The most equipped 1.6 versions already have a face-to-face key, automatic air conditioning and automatic headlight lighting. If you look hard enough, you can find the models with a 173 hp THP engine, which runs more than many new cars.

5. Honda CR-V

Do you want a R$ 70 used SUV but find the previous suggestions small? A reliable and spacious midsize model in this price range is the fourth-generation Honda CR-V.

It came with a 2.0-liter aspirated flex engine, the same as the national Civic, and automatic transmission. The interior space is large even by today’s standards and the trunk takes 589 liters.

Our indication is the EX 4×2 version, the CR-V’s all-wheel drive is more snow-oriented. This top-of-the-line model came with a sunroof, six airbags, a radio with GPS and a reversing camera.

6. Kia Sportage

Another imported used SUV option for R$ 70 thousand is the Kia Sportage, which was a success and also came with a flex engine. It is the brother of the Hyundai IX35 produced in Brazil, but has a slightly smaller size and a sportier look.

The Kia Sportage had versions identified by codes, which can make searches difficult. But it is not difficult to find complete units with six airbags, photochromic rearview mirror, leather seats and other treats.

7. Suzuki Jimny

For those looking for a used SUV thinking about hiking, there is only one option that is jack-of-all-trades: the Suzuki Jimny. It is actually a jeep, with a ladder-type chassis, rigid axle suspensions and 4×4 traction with reduced.

As many bought the model because they found it beautiful, it is possible to find units that have not been modified or that have faced heavy trails. The smaller measurements than those of a Fiat Mobi and the light weight help to get through difficult off-road sections, in addition to facilitating maneuvers in the city.
