Need to retire my gmc Acadia. Looking for a 7 or 8 seat suv for family use. Budget: 60K. Location: east bay. Safefy first. No electric or hybrid car. Any recommendations? Thanks!
Nissan Leaf
Top versions of Kia Telluride or Toyota Highlander. You can also check out the new Acura MDX
New Acura MDX is great and very family friendly. Check out the reviews
Subaru Ascent
In budget: Toyota Highlander. Out of budget: Volvo XC90.
Lexus rxl
This ^^
I feel like Lexus has been slow to evolve. The Genesis gv80, palisade and telluride all have better everything at a better price point. I feel Lexus is resting on its name lately.
Kia telluride
Tesla Model 3 performance edition. Thank me later.
For leaving OPs family out of the car? 😄They need 7 seats..
Ohhhh, then scratch that. Model Y 7 seater
VW Atlas. It is a tank and super spacious inside and quite nice inside even in middle trims. You can get a fully loaded new one under your budget, or a 2019 CPO with 30% depreciation and still 4 to 5 years bumper to bumper warranty. I test drive everything under 60k in the 3 row segment and it is unbeatable. Telluride and Palisade were great as well but in the summer everything was over MSRP price wise and I just am not doing that. If I preferred luxury over space I’d have gotten the XC-90 though, love those as well, just not as functional for a family as the Atlas.
I know you said no electric or hybrid, but you also said safety first. Buy a Tesla. 5-star crash rating. You will become one of Elon’s child.
