for free quote today beginning with two
row suvs
the 2020 subaru outback price range
between 26
and 40 000 overall miles per gallon 24
16 city 32 highway the outback is a
smart alternative to an suv
it has a 260 horsepower 2.4 liter turbo
engine
giving it effortless acceleration
there's also a 2.5 liter four-cylinder
the ride is comfortable handling is
responsive and secure
some tasks through the large
infotainment screen require more than
one step however
all versions get the eyesight safety
suite with standard forward collision
warning
and automatic emergency braking blind
spot warning is optional
next a 2020 ford edge price range
between 31 and 43 grand overall miles
per gallon 22
looking at 15 city 31 highway the edge
is a pleasant well-rounded vehicle with
agile handling and a steady ride the
standard engine is a two liter
four-cylinder turbo the cabin is very
quiet
largely devoid of road and wind noise
only the muted and pleasant hum of the
turbo 4 cylinder can be heard when
revved the copilot 360 system includes
forward collision warning automatic
emergency braking with pedestrian
detection as well as blind spot warning
which many competitors make optional or
not available on some trims
how about the 2020 lexus rx price range
between 44 and 56.5
overall mpgs 22 14 city 31 highway
the gas only rx 350 has a 3.5 liter v6
that gets around 22 miles per gallon
mixed driving there's also a
fuel thrifty 450 hybrid that gets an
excellent 29 miles per gallon
no matter which version you buy or how
it's equipped the rx's ride is
comfortable
plush and the cabin is very quiet and
well finished although now it has
android auto and apple carplay
compatibility the infotainment system is
controlled by
an awkward to use touchpad the suite of
advanced safety and driver assistance
features comes standard
you might like the nissan murano price
range between 31.5 and 45
000 overall mpg's 21 15 city 29 highway
this two row suv uses a punchy refined
3.5 liter v6 paired with a cvt
power delivery is prompt and effortless
the cabin is quiet well finished and has
an upscale feel
the rear seat is roomy and access is
easy rear and side visibility aren't
great however
an overly light steering feel reduces
driver confidence
for collision warning and automatic
emergency braking are standard but blind
spot warning is optional
always popular is a 2020 hyundai santa
fe price point between
26 and 39.5 overall miles per gallon 21
14 city 31 highway sounds familiar the
santa fe is a mid-sized suv
priced like a top trim compact suv which
can make it a bargain there's an
optional turbo engine there's also the
standard 2.4 liter engine which is
smoother and delivers power more
predictably
the suv is composed tied down handling
and responsive steering are impressive
the cabin is quiet disturbed only by
some engine noise when revving up
all versions get standard for collision
warning automatic emergency braking with
pedestrian detection
and blind spot warning and one more two
row suv the 2020 porsche cayenne
price range pretty steep between 66 and
164 thousand
overall miles per gallon 21 15 city 29
highway
few suvs can match the cayenne when it
comes to handling agility but the ride
has
an underlying firmness and some jolts
come through
with the base 3 liter v6 turbo
acceleration is robust once on the fly
but the cayenne exhibits some initial
hesitation off the line
and the rough engine stop start feature
undermines its smoothness
the infotainment system and other
controls are a bit tricky to use
interior fit and finish is impeccable
however the seats are very comfortable
and supportive
automatic emergency braking standard
blind spot warning and lane keeping
assist
are optional and now we move on to the
most reliable and fuel efficient
three-row suvs
for 2020 beginning with the kia sorrento
this price range between 27 and 42
thousand dollars overall miles per
gallon 22
14 city 31 highway sounds like some of
those two row suvs
they're fine sorrento comes standard
with seating for seven
though the compact third row is best for
kids as it usually is
it has a very smooth 290 horsepower 3.3
liter v6 with an eight-speed automatic
transmission
the cabin is quiet the first and second
rows are comfortable and supportive
and the ride is composed you'll find the
handling responsive in everyday driving
the controls are among the easiest to
use in the industry but advanced safety
systems like forward collision warning
automatic emergency braking and blind
spot warning aren't standard on
every trim from the outback to the
ascent
the 2020 subaru set is between 32 and 45
grand
overall moss per gallon 22 14 city 32
highway
subaru's three-row suv offers impressive
all-around performance with a smooth
ride functional interior
and slick power delivery it uses a
four-cylinder turbo engine in a segment
where v6s are dominant
but feels plenty quick the plush ride is
impressive even better than some luxury
cars
handling isn't a strong suit but the suv
remains under control even under duress
standard safety equipment includes
forward collision warning automatic
emergency braking with pedestrian
detection
but blind spot warning isn't available
on the base trim it's standard on the
other ones
we zoom zoom with the 2020 mazda cx-9
between 34 and 46 grand fuel economy
overall is 22 so
15 city 32 highway this stylish
mazda isn't just reliable it's also
quite engaging to drive
driving matters right thanks to his
nimble handling that makes it feel like
a smaller vehicle
power comes from a responsive 227
horsepower 2.5 liter turbo four-cylinder
made it to a smooth
six-speed automatic transmission the
ride is comfortable and the
well-finished cabin is comfortably
quiet though second row seating is
generous third row is tight
as usual mazda's dial control
infotainment system takes some time
to master but it's compatible with
android auto and apple carplay
for collision warning automatic
emergency braking with pedestrian
detection and blind spot warning are
standard now one of my favorites the
2020 toyota highlander between 34
6 and 50 grand overall fuel economy 22
miles per gallon 14 city 32 highway
the redesigned fourth generation
highlander retains its comfortable ride
and smooth powertrain handling is
marginally improved
interior fit and finish is upgraded
particularly in high trim versions
the smooth and punchy 295 horsepower v6
packs a lot of reserve power a hybrid
version is also available
the second row is very roomy but the
third row is tiny
controls are fairly easy to use and
toyota has finally made
android auto and apple carplay
compatibility standard
for collision warning and automatic
emergency braking with pedestrian
detection are standard but blind spot
warning
is optional and now the 2020 kia italia
ride between 32
and 44 grand overall fuel economy is 21
14 city 30 highway kia's three road
mid-size
suv is one of the best in the category
no doubt about it
it's slick 291 horsepower v6 and smooth
shifting 8-speed automatic transmission
combined to return right around 21 miles
per gallon as predicted
while it rides comfortably the big suv
isn't a sporty handler
with noticeable body rolls and turns the
controls are easy to use and the roomy
interior comes with several details that
are well thought out such as the
one touch fold slide second row seat
standard advanced safety systems include
for collision warning automatic
emergency braking with pedestrian
detection and blind spot warning
and now the 2020 hyundai palisade
between 32
and 47 thousand dollars fuel economy 21
miles per gallon mixed driving
15 city 29 highway the palisade shares
many components with the kia telluride
including its smooth 291 horsepower 3.8
liter v6 paired with an 8-speed
automatic transmission
the roomy cabin is quiet the palisade
rides comfortably but handling isn't
particularly
nimble the interior is filled with
thoughtful details and most controls are
easy to use
except for maybe the unintuitive push
button gear selector
standard safety systems include forward
collision warning automatic emergency
braking with pedestrian detection
and blind spot warning is optional the
20 20 honda pilot will be a fan favorite
between 31.6
and 50 grand overall miles per gallon
right there at the threshold for this
list 20 miles per gallon
13 city 28 highway the pilot is quick
comfortable and refined it's three row
seating configuration
roomy cabin and abundant interior
storage make it an extremely functional
vehicle
power comes from a 3.5 liter v6 rated at
280 horsepower
the ride is comfortable but the handling
is ungainly
a touch screen infotainment system is
frustrating to use for some
touring and elite trim levels get a
9-speed automatic transmission that
doesn't shift
as smoothly as you'd like and features a
push button gear selector that takes
some getting used to
all pilots come standard with forward
collision warning and automatic
emergency braking with pedestrian
detection
and last but not least the 2020 lexus
rxl
price range between 47 and 50 500
overall miles per gallon 20
12 city 30 on the highway this three row
version of the lexus rx
has the same comfortable ride slick
powertrain and good fit and finish but
it also has the same clumsy handling and
distracting controls
the standard rxl configuration seats
seven
the optional second row captions chairs
limit seating to six
there's a snug path from either side of
the vehicle to the tiny third
row seat it's really best for grade
school children if you do end up buying
this you'll probably enjoy the extra
cargo room
more than just the added seats while for
collision warning and automatic
emergency braking pedestrian detection
are standard
blind spot warning is optional so if
you're in the market for a reliable
fuel efficient mid-size suv whether it's
two rows or three rows maybe it's on
this list
