Tell me what you want, what you really really want!
We make a lot of sacrifices in life — warm food, tight bodies, new clothes, and time, especially when it comes to our kids. For those of us who spend a lot of time in our cars, whether it be traveling for work or waiting to pick up your little from dance or football, we shouldn’t have to sacrifice luxury for austere usability. Lucky for you, we have reviewed the 7 best mid sized SUVs, giving you all the information you need to make a solid choice to love the car you drive.
1. Cadillac XT6
The Cadillac XT6 is perfect for those who want the style and luxury of a Cadillac but would prefer a mid sized SUV over the more well known Escalade or Navigator. But don’t fret — just because she is smaller, all of the details you have come to know and love about Cadillac are all included with the XT6
What We Loved
- Slightly smaller than its Escalade counterpart but still plenty of room
- Modern, elegant look and feel
- Ample Cargo Space AND a grocery box!
- Sliding 2nd row seats
- Easy to drive, easy to handle
- Starting price $54,000

3. Audi Q7
What surprised us the most about Audi’s Q7 isn’t the space, but the price. Who knew you could get a luxury 3-row SUV for $61,000? With 37.5 cubic feet of space, the Audi Q7 really is meant for families, road trips, and everything in between without breaking your budget.
WHAT WE LOVED
- Enough room for kids and all that come with them without feeling oversized
- Movable armrest with all of the infotainment at your fingertips
- 2 words: Ponytail. Headrest.
- Easily accessible 2nd and 3rd rows
- 3 carseats fit in the second row!
- Even with all of the kid-friendly features, it doesn’t lack style and luxury.
