Top High-Performance SUVs in the UAE

A Sport Utility Vehicle, or SUV, is a four-wheel-drive that can be driven on various terrains, such as sand, snow, and rock. SUVs exude power, performance, and versatility, and we're absolutely fascinated by them. The freedom you get with driving one of these is exhilarating, especially when you don't have to worry about going through humps, rough roads, curbs, dunes, hills, ditches, or any other unexpected obstacles. 

When it comes to the best performing SUVs in the UAE, here's our favorite list:  

Since its launch in 1951, Nissan Patrol has been widely considered an iconic SUV perfect for all types of terrain, such as sand, rock, and snow. Steeped in the UAE's beautiful culture and heritage, many people here, especially locals, love this four-wheeled beast.

Go to any dune-bashing or safari event, and you'll most probably see a Nissan Patrol effortlessly climbing a steep dune.

We can't help but fall in love with the sleek, horizontal lines across the grille that signify a modern premium finish. Those boomerang-shaped LED headlights and taillights make the vehicle look even more contemporary than ever -fit for 2021.

Speaking of 2021 models, you have options for excellent off-road capabilities and advanced luxury, safety, and comfort features. Under the hood, you get a V8 option with 400 hp and 560 Nm torque, which is adequate even for the most adventurous needs. Off-road features include Hill Start Assist and Hill Descent Control for steep inclines, Direct Injection Gasoline (DIG), Variable Valve Event and Lift (VVEL), Hydraulic Body Motion Control for maximizing suspension stroke on off-road driving, and variable 4x4 modes.

We love those two HD screens, 8 and 7 inches, which jointly provide a responsive infotainment system for accessing 3D maps, Wi-Fi hotspots, wireless charging, and more. You also have the option for 13 speakers with Bose premium sound, Apple Carplay, and Android Auto.

Since its launch in 1951, the legendary Land Cruiser has been the favorite four-wheel drive for many people, while some say that it's the undisputed king of SUVs.

The figures speak for themselves:

With over 10.4 million Land Cruisers sold in 170 countries worldwide, this ubiquitous champion boasts off-road prowess and represents durability, performance, and reliability. Perhaps its most impressive quality is its remarkable performance in all kinds of terrain.

Many UAE nationals and expats enjoy driving a Land Cruiser when going off-roading and dune bashing in the beautiful deserts of Dubai.

2021 models come equipped with a large 10.1-inch HD screen with an optional 9-inch JBL audio and entertainment system, 14 surround-sound speakers, and 10.1-inch rear-seat entertainment on VXR GTS models. As for safety features, the Land Cruiser comes with vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Active Traction Control (ATRC), and Pre-Collision System (PCS).

Nothing screams status, performance, and an extrovert outward appearance like a Benz imbued with AMG! The legendary G-Class has been synonymous with exceptional off-road capabilities like no other. Look at any high-profile figure, and that person probably drives a G-Class. We believe there's a good reason for that. Its robust, classic, boxy styling looks fantastic on all types of terrain, but its real strength lies in its unbelievable performance that has been captivating off-road fans for decades.

With a 4 liter V8 biturbo engine, 577 hp, and an AMG Speedshift Plus 9G-TRONIC under its hood, this monster can catapult to 100 km/h with a primal scream in just 4.5 seconds!

This beautiful 2021 blue model with a macchiato beige interior is now available on Yalla Deals. Check out our G-Class collection:

Who can't recognize the iconic, ubiquitous design that evokes feelings and images of adventure? The famous Jeep Wrangler is a unique vehicle with a classic military design that has remained consistent throughout the years, despite the elegant fusion of traditional and modern elements. We'd like to think of it as a soldier that has been civilianized. 

But don't let all the niceties and modernized options fool you. Deep down, this beast has warrior DNA. in fact, did you know that this legendary car "inspired" other auto manufacturers to create their own version of this vehicle back in the 1940s and 1950s.    

 

Its off-roading capabilities are stellar or perhaps unbelievable. We've seen Wranglers in action in the deserts of Dubai; the way they seamlessly glide through the problematic dunes hypnotized us while other vehicles got stuck in the sand. With a 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine with 285 horsepower and 352 NM of torque, this powerful SUV comes with advanced off-roading capabilities.  The Selec-Trac 4x4 System features a full-time mode that automatically shifts from 2WD to 4WD whenever needed. Moreover, the Rock-Track 4x4 System on Rubicon models gives you more control and torque, offering superior off-road performance with a 4:1 low-gear ratio.
