Whether you’re looking for reliable used SUVs, a comfortable ride, or strong fuel economy, there’s something here for every lifestyle and budget.

Nissan Rogue: Dependable, Efficient, and Packed with Features

The Nissan Rogue remains one of the best SUVs — new and used — for good reason. As a compact SUV with excellent fuel economy, generous cargo space, and available all-wheel drive, the Rogue offers modern convenience without the new-car price tag.

Many shoppers ask, “What is a good SUV to buy used?” — and the Rogue is often at the top of that list. Recent model years come equipped with advanced safety features like blind-spot warning and rear cross-traffic alert, along with smartphone integration and a quiet, comfortable ride perfect for Corpus Christi commutes or weekend trips to Padre Island.

Nissan Murano: A Midsize SUV with Upscale Appeal

If you’re after a midsize SUV that feels more premium without jumping into luxury prices, the Nissan Murano is an excellent pick. The Murano blends performance and style with a V6 engine under the hood, smooth handling, and available all-wheel drive for added confidence on the road.

Inside, you’ll find a plush cabin with available leather seating, dual-zone climate control, and Nissan’s intuitive infotainment system. It’s an ideal option for families or anyone in the Coastal Bend looking for a bit more space and refinement.

Nissan Pathfinder: Versatile Space and Family-Friendly Features

Need room for your growing crew? The Nissan Pathfinder is a favorite among South Texas families who need a versatile three-row SUV. With available four-wheel drive, strong towing capacity, and plenty of interior room, the Pathfinder is ready for road trips, whether you’re headed to San Antonio or packing up for a weekend at Lake Corpus Christi.

Recent model years offer smart features like rear-seat alerts, tri-zone climate control, and NissanConnect® infotainment.

Nissan Kicks: Smart, Stylish, and Surprisingly Spacious

For drivers who want maximum value in a compact footprint, the Nissan Kicks is one of the best options. This budget-friendly crossover delivers outstanding fuel economy, nimble city driving, and impressive cargo space for its size. It’s perfect for navigating downtown Corpus or parking near campus at Texas A&M Corpus Christi.

With Apple CarPlay®, a stylish two-tone design, and available driver-assist features, the Kicks punches well above its weight.

Subaru Outback: Built for Adventure and Everyday Comfort

For shoppers who want versatility and rugged confidence, the Subaru Outback is a top contender. Its standard all-wheel drive, strong resale value, and reputation for reliability make it a top option for those exploring the used SUV market, especially if you’re heading to the beach, trail, or anywhere off the beaten path.

Subaru’s well-known commitment to quality means that even older model years offer dependable performance, excellent fuel economy, and a smart layout supporting comfort and utility.

INFINITI QX60: Affordable Luxury with Family-Friendly Features

Looking for a bit more luxury? The INFINITI QX60 delivers a premium experience with three rows of seating, upscale materials, and a smooth, comfortable ride. It’s a great choice for families in Corpus Christi who want extra room and style without sacrificing budget.

The QX60 is a great buy if you want a luxury SUV without the luxury sticker price.

Mercedes-Benz GLC: Prestige and Performance

If you’re eyeing luxury SUVs with top-tier engineering and design, don’t overlook the Mercedes-Benz GLC, available from our Ed Hicks Imports location just minutes from our Nissan dealership.
