The top 10 best-selling SUVs in Saudi Arabia were ranked as follows:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Toyota Land Cruiser:<\/strong> 8,345 units.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nissan Patrol:<\/strong> 7,249 units.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Toyota Fortuner:<\/strong> 7,013 units.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Haval H9:<\/strong> 6,949 units.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ford Everest:<\/strong> 4,006 units.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lexus LX:<\/strong> 3,021 units.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chevrolet Tahoe:<\/strong> 2,886 units.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Toyota Highlander:<\/strong> 2,371 units.<\/li>\n<li><strong>GMC Yukon:<\/strong> 2,358 units.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Jetour G700:<\/strong> 2,178 units.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The list shows that competition is not limited to Japanese brands, despite Toyota and Nissan leading the rankings. It also extends to American, Chinese, and luxury brands, each of which has a presence in the SUV segment within the Saudi market.<\/p>\n<h2>Land Cruiser and Patrol: The Battle for the Top of the SUV Market<\/h2>\n<p>The Toyota Land Cruiser ranked first with sales of 8,345 units, while the <a href=\"https:\/\/carsvid.com\/en\/cars\/nissan\/patrol\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nissan Patrol<\/a> recorded 7,249 units, creating a gap of 1,096 vehicles between them.<\/p>\n<p>This close result highlights the continued competition between the two models, whose names are strongly associated in the Saudi market, particularly among those looking for large vehicles that combine a commanding presence, spaciousness, and capabilities suitable for trips and various road conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the Land Cruiser&#8217;s lead, the Patrol&#8217;s figures place it close behind the leader, with a gap of no more than approximately 13% of the first-place vehicle&#8217;s sales. This makes the competition between them one of the most prominent features of the SUV market in 2026.<\/p>\n<h2>Fortuner and Haval H9: Close Competition Behind the Leaders<\/h2>\n<p>After the Land Cruiser and Patrol, the <a href=\"https:\/\/carsvid.com\/en\/cars\/toyota\/fortuner\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Toyota Fortuner<\/a> ranked third after recording 7,013 units, just 236 vehicles behind the Nissan Patrol, placing it among the strongest models on the list.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the <a href=\"https:\/\/carsvid.com\/en\/cars\/haval\/h9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Haval H9<\/a> came very close, recording sales of 6,949 units, leaving a gap of just <strong>64 vehicles<\/strong> between it and the Fortuner. This close result is one of the most notable details in the rankings, showing that competition in the middle positions is no less intense than the battle for the lead.<\/p>\n<p>The Ford Everest ranked fifth with sales of 4,006 units, completing the group of models competing to meet the needs of buyers seeking large and versatile SUVs.<\/p>\n<h2>Lexus LX and Chevrolet Tahoe: The Presence of Large and Luxury Vehicles<\/h2>\n<p>In the second half of the list, the <a href=\"https:\/\/carsvid.com\/en\/cars\/lexus\/lx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lexus LX<\/a> ranked sixth after recording 3,021 units, followed by the <a href=\"https:\/\/carsvid.com\/en\/cars\/chevrolet\/tahoe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chevrolet Tahoe<\/a> with sales of 2,886 units.<\/p>\n<p>The presence of these two models reflects continued demand for large vehicles with luxury features and spacious interiors, particularly among buyers who prioritize comfort, equipment, and road presence.<\/p>\n<p>The Toyota Highlander ranked eighth with sales of 2,371 units, narrowly ahead of the GMC Yukon, which recorded 2,358 units, leaving a gap of just 13 vehicles between them.<\/p>\n<h2>Jetour G700 Enters the Top Ten<\/h2>\n<p>The Jetour G700 rounded out the list in tenth place after recording 2,178 units by the end of the third quarter of 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Its presence among the ten best-selling SUV models in Saudi Arabia is a notable indication of growing competition for traditional brands, as new Chinese models enter the large and versatile vehicle segment.<\/p>\n<p>Although the Jetour G700 ranked last, its presence on this list places it alongside established names such as the Land Cruiser, Patrol, Tahoe, and Yukon, giving the 2026 rankings greater diversity in terms of brands and sources of competition.<\/p>\n<h2>Toyota Has the Strongest Presence: How Many Models Does It Have on the SUV List?<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carsvid.com\/blog\/%d9%85%d9%86%d9%88%d8%b9%d8%a7%d8%aa\/%d8%b4%d8%b9%d8%a7%d8%b1-%d8%aa%d9%88%d9%8a%d9%88%d8%aa%d8%a7\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Toyota<\/a> is the most represented brand on the list, appearing with three models: the Land Cruiser, Fortuner, and Highlander, with total sales of <strong>17,729 vehicles<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, Nissan appeared with one model, the Patrol, while Haval, Ford, Lexus, Chevrolet, GMC, and Jetour each had one model represented.<\/p>\n<p>This diversity gives Toyota a clear advantage in terms of the number of models and total sales among the ten vehicles. However, the sales rankings also reveal strong competition from other brands, particularly Haval in fourth place and Ford in fifth, alongside the continued presence of large American vehicles.<\/p>\n<h2>What Do SUV Sales Reveal About Buyer Preferences in Saudi Arabia?<\/h2>\n<p>The list shows that the SUV market in Saudi Arabia accommodates more than one preference. There is demand for models known for their off-road and touring capabilities, such as the Land Cruiser and Patrol, as well as versatile family vehicles such as the Fortuner, Everest, and Highlander.<\/p>\n<p>The presence of the Lexus LX, Chevrolet Tahoe, and GMC Yukon also highlights the importance of the large and luxury vehicle segment, while the Haval H9 and Jetour G700 illustrate the growing competition from Chinese brands.<\/p>\n<p>Accordingly, the SUV market in Saudi Arabia cannot be reduced to a single model or brand. The figures reveal clear diversity in the available options and competition among vehicles that differ in their positioning, features, and prices, yet all target a broad segment of buyers seeking sport utility vehicles.<\/p>\n<h2>Will the Land Cruiser Retain the Lead Through the End of 2026?<\/h2>\n<p>According to data from the first nine months of the year, the Toyota Land Cruiser retains first place, leading the Nissan Patrol by 1,096 vehicles. Competition also appears close in the following positions, particularly between the Fortuner and Haval H9, and between the Highlander and GMC Yukon.<\/p>\n<p>With the final quarter of the year still remaining, some positions could change depending on sales and deliveries, as well as vehicle availability at dealerships. However, the current figures confirm that the Land Cruiser remains at the top of the list, with a strong presence from the Patrol and Fortuner and notable competition from the Haval H9 and Ford Everest.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> This ranking is based on published sales figures through the end of the third quarter of 2026 and does not represent total sales for the full year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Toyota Land Cruiser continued to lead the SUV market in Saudi Arabia during 2026, recording 8,345 units sold by the end of the third quarter, ahead of the Nissan Patrol, which ranked second with sales of 7,249 units.
