Home / Car buying guides / Family Cars: Third-Row SUVs & Minivans

If you need seven or eight seats, the choice is a minivan or a three-row SUV. Minivans have sliding doors and the easiest third row; three-row SUVs add ground clearance and, often, AWD for winter. Below are the ones in our stock right now — the seat count is on each car page.

Bring the car seats to the test drive

The best test is real: bring your car seats and the stroller. Check the LATCH anchors, how hard it is to reach the third row with a seat installed, and what fits behind the third row with everyone on board.

Minivan or three-row SUV?

Minivan: sliding doors (great in tight parking lots), lower floor, more room in the third row.
Three-row SUV: higher ground clearance, many with AWD, but the third row is usually tighter.
Both: check the rear A/C and the condition of the sliding doors or power liftgate.

Budget for the real total

Every car page shows the estimated out-the-door total for Massachusetts (price + dealer fees, 6.25% tax, title, registration and sticker). Try the payment calculator before you come.
