Get Your Own Space – 7 seater SUVs
7 seater SUVs these days are growing in popularity for many reasons – they’re comfortable, safe and don’t drink fuel like they used to. This is making them no-brainers for any decision car purchase. With the sheer size of the market today, 7 seater SUVs have proven that they can be easy on your mind and your pocket. They aren’t truck-like contraptions anymore; they use less fuel and even handle like a car, besides being easy to get used to. Another development has been in the pricing; many manufacturers offer good 7 seater SUVs for prices that are rather affordable.
Affordable 7 seater SUVs:
Surprising or not, many leading Japanese car makers have affordable 7 seater SUVs in their portfolio. Take the Toyota Highlander for instance – one of the most rugged, reliable and affordable 7 seater SUVs you can buy today, and it starts from just over $28,000. You can choose from a 2.7L 4 cylinder engine or a 3.5L V6. Both offer nearly the same 25 mpg highway economy. Mitsubishi has the Outlander, which is a great package of style and practicality. Then there’s the Honda Pilot with its smooth and extremely reliable and frugal 3.5L V6. The Pilot can also seat upto 8 if needed.
Off road 7 seater SUVs:
If the joy of the following a trail is on your agenda, or if you just want to go out for some family sized mug plugging through a marsh or two, there are some incredible 7 seater SUVs that can even be called reasonably priced for all that they bring to the table. The Ford Explorer is the one to have if you’re on a budget. Starting at just under $29,000, the new model offers a choice of 4-cylinder Ecoboost and V6 engines, which promise and deliver outstanding economy as well as tremendous off road performance further assisted by their Terrain Management system. Should you desire even greater ability, there’s the bigger Ford Expedition, which with its 310 hp V8 engine can deal with the rough and the smooth and can tow up to 9200 lbs! The Toyota Sequoia is also a fantastic option if you want a good blend of comfort and off road ability. With prices starting at just over $40,000 and a choice of V8 engines, the Sequoia is something you should take a good look at.
Luxury 7 seater SUVs:
There are even more luxury oriented 7 seater SUVs should you be looking for something with a lot more equipment pampering you as you go along. From the Cadillac Escalade to the Toyota Land Cruiser, from the Mercedes GL class to the big Range Rover, there are 7 seater SUVs from every part of the world that offer a rare combination of practicality, performance, luxury and off road credibility. Prices start from around $40,000 and move up with the brand and engine type. While most are powered by big V8 engines; there’s the insane 510 hp supercharged 5.0L V8 in the Range Rover, and then there are some sensible hybrid versions as well.
Hybrid 7 seater SUVs:
You may be surprised how these are growing in number. One of the best options is the Toyota Highlander Hybrid starting at around $38,500. It offers uncompromised performance with its 3.5L V6 paired to a hybrid driveline returning 28 mpg. The Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid is also great choice starting from $52,000. A 6.0L V8 is under the hood which brings the power, and with it, a towing ability of 6200 lbs. An economy of 23 mpg isn’t too bad either, for a big V8.
Whatever is on your mind, it makes sense to shortlist the 7 seater SUVs that appeal to you and your lifestyle and then take them all out for an evaluation drive. The right choice can make all the difference.
