AI Market Summary

Excellent seven-seat comfort and Scandinavian build quality; strong safety reputation and commanding driving position appeal to family buyers.
Well-priced relative to rivals (Mercedes GLE, BMW X5 diesel); price up 16% year-on-year signals steady demand and solid residual value hold.
Diesel particulate filter (DPF) regeneration faults common, especially urban/short-trip drivers—watch for limp-mode warnings. Turbo bearing wear possible above 100k km; gearbox judder on low-speed manoeuvres reported.
Before purchase, request full service history and ask seller about any DPF or turbo issues; run a pre-buy inspection on emissions and gearbox smoothness.
NI import €2,779 cheaper before VRT; factor in €500–€800 VRT, NOx levy, and registration costs—real saving modest after taxes.
