Pricing

The Ariya’s base price is close to but higher than other mainstream EV SUVs like the Ford Mustang Mach-E (43,995) and Volkswagen ID.4 ($41,190), though with more standard estimated range.

Though the new Tundra starts at $37,645 (all prices include destination), up nearly $2,000 from the 2021 model, a 5 mpg overall gain from the new base engine is equally significant.

The base 4x2 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo will start at $39,185 for the 2022 model year, $2,130 more than a comparable 2021 model.

The 2022 Honda Civic Si is expected to arrive before the end of 2021 and starts at $28,315, including a $1,015 destination fee.

Refreshed for 2022, the Jetta sees an updated engine and more standard safety technology, but it comes at a price.

For 2022, there are very few changes to the Toyota Highlander. The most visible is a new Bronze Edition trim level available for the Highlander’s hybrid version.

Toyota’s redesigned and slightly renamed 2022 GR86 adds horsepower, torque, more aggressive looks and advanced safety features to one of the few remaining affordable sports cars with rear-wheel drive.

Pricing is now available for the 2022 Acura RDX, and it will start at just over $40,000 for a base model with front-wheel drive, up slightly from 2021.

Ram’s signature 1500 full-size pickup enters the 2022 model year with one significant tech update, some new special editions and options packages, as well as fairly significant price increases across the board.

With relatively minor changes and modest price increases for 2022, a 2022 Santa Fe is probably your best bet.
