Need an SUV to tow a caravan - what's best?

I need a new SUV 4x4 to tow a 1500kg caravan. I don’t need seven seats, but may need to drive through shallow water occasionally. What do you recommend?

Currently the best value for money for this job is a KIA Sorento 2.2 diesel, towing weight 2,500kg, up for from £25,000 brand new with a seven year warranty.

Strong diesels including impressive 2.2-litre. Comes with seven seats. New six-speed automatic. More premium feel than previous Sorento. Great value for money.
