Its been a big year for 3-row SUVs from General Motors. The maker of Buick, GMC and Chevrolet recently redesigned the full lineup, including the 3-row SUVs popular with so many families for school runs, road trips, and everything in between.

GM’s SUVs have long been the go-to for families, but they are also the SUVs that the rest of the industry looks to beat for the design and function of 3-row SUVs. The Chevy Traverse was and still is the best SUV alternative to a minivan. The Buick Enclave elevates the SUV experience with finer finishes and more luxuries, and the GMC Acadia adds the power and confidence of a truck.
