Best Mid-Size 2-Row Luxury SUVs

Car and Driver's rankings are arrived at from the results of our extensive instrumented testing of several hundred vehicles each year and from our expert editors' subjective impressions gained in real-world driving. We've ranked the best mid-size two-row luxury SUVs based on roughly 200 data points encompassing acceleration, handling, comfort, cargo space, fuel efficiency, value, and how enjoyable they are to drive. We take rankings seriously because we want you to know everything about the vehicles that you're interested in. The vehicles here all come standard with two rows of seats, but some offer a third-row seat as an option. We rank SUVs with a standard third row of seats separately.
