The GMC Acadia starts at just under $30,000, competing in the increasingly crowded mid-sized crossover segment. Offering three rows of seating for up to seven people, the Acadia promises to move families and friends in both comfort and safety with a little dose of "go anywhere" thrown in as well.

With a starting price of around $30,000, the Dodge Durango is one of the best full-size SUV values available. With an 8-speed transmission available, standard remote keyless entry, and three-zone climate control as well as available 20-inch rims, the Durango is a hard package to beat at this price. The Durango also remains one of the safest SUV picks for a large family, as it's been a repeat IIHS Top Safety Pick and it's one of the best picks on the market for those who need to carry a...

Subaru has been extremely successful with the Outback and the Forester, and much of that success can be attributed to how those cars drive. Contrary to expectations, both provide an easy, car-like driving experience for their owners. The Ascent attempts to continue that tradition with a full-sized 3-row SUV. They've succeeded making the Ascent physically smaller than the interior might feel. The interior is massive and yet, the exterior dimensions reveal a vehicle that isn't particularly huge...

Between its seating capacity and fuel economy, the Nissan Pathfinder makes a good value play. While previous Pathfinders competed with truck-like SUVs like the Toyota 4Runner, the 2019 Pathfinder aims instead to compete more closely with crossover vehicles such as the Toyota Highlander, bringing more space and refinement to the market at a slight cost to seldom used off-road capabilities.

The redesigned Honda Pilot crossover utility vehicle is focused toward interior comfort and versatility. It features three rows of seating worthy of a minivan, yet it also incorporates the ruggedness of traditional SUVs. The Pilot features a powerful engine and reasonable fuel economy thanks to an available 9-speed transmission. A host of safety features are available as well.

The SUV segment has been a heated battlefield over the last decade. GM has gone to great lengths to make sure its lineup stands out from the competition. The Traverse does this by offering class-leading interior room and an engine lineup that's now more powerful and efficient than ever. The refreshed styling helps distinguish the SUV from the many lookalike vehicles in this category. A positively sporty-looking RS trim offers a turbocharged 2.0L engine and unique black accents.

The Chevrolet Blazer starts at around $29,000, placing it in the mid-sized SUV segment, but with a lower-than-average starting price. SUVs are by definition expected to be versatile and offer owners with a myriad of uses: hauling stuff, getting to work every day and driving through the woods on a weekend excursion. The Blazer has put an emphasis on this versatility with a clever interior that can be reconfigured, along with a ton of technology aimed at both making occupants more comfortable...

The Kia Sorento competes in a crowded segment against other mid-sized SUVs. Luckily for Kia, the Sorento stands out, with bold styling and a bevy of options, making it an extremely versatile competitor. Kias are known for their great warranties and an affordable base price, and the Sorento doesn't disappoint. With a base price of about $26,000 and a 5-year bumper-to-bumper warranty, the 2019 Kia Sorento is extremely competitive.

The CX-9 is Mazda's flagship crossover SUV, and with seating for seven, it's the perfect way to carry friends and family wherever you need to go.

The 2023 Mazda CX-5 competes with the likes of the Honda CR-V, Subaru Forester, Toyota RAV4, and Ford Escape. Even in this crowd, it's one of the sportiest-driving models, with surprisingly good fuel economy ratings, even from its new turbocharged engine. The CX-5 also stands out for offering a great ride quality and a flexible, spacious interior. The CX-5's infotainment system, with Bose sound, is one of the most feature-packed in its competitive set, too, with features such as...
