Used cars have become extremely popular in recent years. While the potential to save around 30-40% less than new cars is obviously the main drawcard, it’s not the only factor in their current success. Used cars typically come with lower registration and insurance costs, provide the more environmentally-friendly option and have a more stable depreciation period than new cars. If you’re on the hunt for the perfect used vehicle and eager to save as much as you can, you may wonder what the best used cars under $25,000 in Brisbane are. 

Aspley Mazda has been providing both new and used cars to the people of Brisbane’s northside for over 50 years. The biggest Mazda dealership in Australia, we stock every new Mazda model as well as used vehicles of all makes and models. The next-generation Mazda CX-5 has arrived at Aspley Mazda, and it once again raises the bar on what one of Australia’s best-loved SUVs can do. But if you want an option that’s more affordable while being no less reliable, here is the Aspley Mazda guide to the best used cars under $25,000 in Brisbane. 

Mazda CX-5

One of Australia’s most popular and widely recognised SUVs, the Mazda CX-5 has been revamped for 2026 with smarter tech, better handling, evolved safety features and more space to stretch out. But if your budget can’t stretch enough to afford the price tag of this new arrival, Aspley Mazda offers an older CX-5 that still packs the benefits of a 2.5-litre, four-cylinder SKYACTIV-G engine along with five seats, plenty of space and a five-star ANCAP safety rating. 

Mazda CX-3

Mazda’s smallest SUV, the CX-3 has been a leader in its class for over a decade. Easy to drive and even easier to park on city streets where space is in short supply, the CX-3 is a family-friendly vehicle with a five-star ANCAP safety rating and a petrol engine fuel economy of 6.3L/100km. It’s the reliability and consistent quality of this SUV that has made it such a popular choice for so long. 

Mazda 3

One of the best value small cars on the market, the Mazda 3 is both classy and sporty, with precise handling and a luxurious interior. Available in four distinct generations since 2004, the Mazda 3 has managed to maintain its track record of strong safety features, a distinctive style and an enjoyable driving experience. Available as both a sedan and a hatchback, the Mazda 3 provides a highly comfortable yet relatively affordable form of family transport. 

Kia Sportage

Kia’s luxury mid-sized SUV, the Sportage is a popular five-seater complete with state-of-the-art technology and room to fit a growing family. In every Kia Sportage you’ll find the best that an athletic family SUV has to offer including first-rate safety features and technology that provides top-notch entertainment. 

Mitsubishi Mirage

Now discontinued in Australia, the Mitsubishi Mirage had a longstanding reputation as one of the country’s most affordable and fuel-efficient cars. Its efficiency, reliability and affordability have made it a popular first car for young buyers and it has a new life on the second-hand market as one of the best used cars under $25,000. If you’re after exceptional value on a tight budget, a Mitsubishi Mirage is an option that won’t disappoint. 

Toyota RAV4

One of Australia’s most enduringly popular mid-sized SUVs, the Toyota RAV4 has a number of benefits: room for five people, a large boot, terrific fuel economy. Compact and modern, agile and comfortable, the Toyota RAV4 is built to be luxurious on the inside and powerful on the outside. 

Hyundai Santa Fe

The Hyundai Santa Fe is an award-winning family SUV and one of Australia’s bestselling seven-seaters. With a comfortable interior and technology with smart features, it’s an ideal vehicle for both everyday use and longer road trips. With a combination of rugged toughness, high-grade technology and elegant interior design, the Hyundai Santa Fe is the kind of vehicle that adapts and thrives in all kinds of environments.
