Top 5 SUVs with powered tailgates you can buy in 2026
Indian SUVs are increasingly adopting powered tailgates. Here are the key models in 2026 with the feature across various price points.
SUVs have become the go-to choice for most Indians, owing to their size, their road presence and their ability to absolutely fly through bad patches of road. Owing to their size, it is often difficult to get into the cabin or close the tailgate once opened. However, to solve that problem, powered tail gates were brought into function, which would allow people to close their tail gates at the touch of a button. Premium SUVs are already equipped with this feature, as it continues to creep into the more affordable range of SUVs as well. Here are the top 5 SUVs with powered tailgates to buy in 2026, including the Tata Sierra, Jeep Compass, MG Hector, Mahindra BE 6 and Hyundai Alcazar:
