Big SUVs are popular in the UK, no matter what fuel they use. Some are only for driving on roads, while others are better for adventures outdoors. They can handle different types of terrain.

A group of journalists from Autocar made a list of the best 4x4s in the UK. The Land Rover Defender Octa was ranked first because it's very good at off-roading.

The journalists liked the Octa because it makes off-roading easy and has a comfortable ride. It also has a lot of space inside.

The Octa lost points for being big, heavy, and expensive. It can cost as much as £148,245.

Autocar said the Octa is very capable and good at off-roading, even for people who don't like it.

The Jeep Wrangler came in second. It's very good off-road and has a decent-sized interior. It costs around £63,465.

The Wrangler lost points for not being good on roads and being expensive. It will also be discontinued soon.

If you want a new Wrangler, you need to buy it quickly because it will stop being sold in 2026.

The Toyota Land Cruiser came in third. It's a well-known competitor to the Jeep and Land Rover. It costs over £80,945.

Autocar liked the Toyota's looks and its reputation for being good off-road. It also has good steering and is reliable.

The Land Cruiser lost points for not being refined on roads and being expensive. It doesn't have a six-cylinder engine, which would be smoother.

The Land Cruiser handles well and has a strong engine, but it's not very polished.
