People love SUVs. They provide a higher-up, more commanding road positioning than the average hatchback and they can also be easier to load up with things. Small SUVs are popular with fleets thanks to affordability, lower running costs than larger models, and practicality.
They're also much more manoeuvrable than larger vehicles, which helps around little villages and car parks. On Carwow.co.uk this week, we've found three excellent lease deals on top-rated models.
Ford Puma Gen-E | 47kWh Auto
£202.85 per month | £2,734.20 initial rental | 36 months | 10,000 miles
The Ford Puma Gen-E brings the popular compact SUV into the electric era, offering up to 259-miles (WLTP) of range and controls familiar to Ford owners, past and present. Its compact dimensions, practical 523-litre luggage capacity make the Puma well suited to company-car drivers and urban fleets.
Volvo EX30 | 51kWh Auto
£241.65 per month | £3,149.80 initial rental | 36 months | 10,000 miles
Volvo’s EX30 is a compact electric SUV designed to zip around cities and take on motorways with ease. It offers up to 304-miles (WLTP) of range and its sizeable 400-litre boot can expand to 1,000 litres with the rear seats folded. For fleets, its compact footprint, strong equipment levels and powerful electric drivetrain make it particularly suited to company car drivers.
Volkswagen T-Roc | 1.5 eTSI Auto
£213.22 per month | £2,853.64 initial rental | 36 months | 10,000 miles
The Volkswagen T-Roc eTSI offers fleets a combustion-powered alternative to the growing number of electric SUVs. The eTSI combines a mild-hybrid powertrain with a seven-speed double-cluth automatic gearbox. It has a 475-litre boot, generous rear space and compact-SUV dimensions, which make it practical for business users. For fleets that can't make the full switch to EV, the T-Roc could suit very neatly.
| Vehicle | Monthly | Initial Rental | Lease Term | Mileage | Total cost |

| Volvo EX30 | £241.65 | £3,149.80 | 36 months | 10,000 | £11,607 |
| Volkswagen T-Roc | £213.22 | £2,853.64 | 36 months | 10,000 | £10,316 |
