looking for suv for 2 kids..next month parents coming..currently sedan using, parents vaste suv kavali ..any suggestions?

parents health ela undi? like knee pains/flexibility etc? any 6/7 seater SUV you take, height ekkuva so parents ki in n out will be tough and they cant go into 3rd row at all.....mini vans better and 3rd row very comfy than any SUV.

minivan problem enti for drive? 

problem is a minivan..it drives like a van..anta confidence vundadu road meeda..and it feels heavy when bracking , accelerating etc..SUV drives and handles better than minivan. this is just me though.

Only parents kosam SUV anukunte, think if all of you will go out at same time and how frequently.

Car prices are going to come down quite a lot in next few months so see if you can delay the purchase and manage with a rental SUV for long drives etc. for some time.

not exactly true...yes, they are heavy but low height valla driving is lot easier. Also, vehicle flip chances are low compared to SUV's. Again, main reason is height valla....ekkuva height unte, speed lo easy ga flip avthundi.

the only prob with minivans are design compared to SUV's....later ones have sporty and trendy looks....minivans are boring and makes u feel uncle......so if ur early 30's then go for SUV and when ur close to 40's, sell that SUV and then buy minivan.

Many people buy the basic trim of the minivans and complain about the engine power.. 

you have to buy the high end version, with V6 and all wheel drive. They drive better than big SUVs. I have both and I prefer driving the minivan for the comfort and cargo and dvd player etc.. though it doesn’t look as good as SUV

Proper 3rd row with luggage space kavali ante SUV’s don’t fit in that category .. 5-9yr old kids varaku aithe SUV’s fine .. ledu ante minivan better, 

VW Tiguan, VW Atlas(e madhya e vehicles chala chustuna on road) Hyundai Palisade, Kia Telluride, Nissan Rogue, Toyota Highlander, Acura MDX, Honda Pilot, Subaru Ascent, Volvo XC90, Benz glb (with optional 3rd row) , Audi Q7, Benz x5(3rd rows are cramped) , Infiniti QX60 are  few of 3-row suv examples

Rent ante waste anipistundi..cant rent every time..they wll be here every other yr..and long run lo manak kuda use aithadi ga ani thinking

every other year plans unte.. better to buy than rent.

But I feel 7 seater is too tight in space for family of 4 + 2 ( parents). last row will be very congested unless you go for full size suv.

no man..konni mid size suvs baganey vunnayi 3rd row and height in 3rd row, for eg Honda pilot 23 big improvement in 3rd row, also telluride also good. Lux suvs tho prob enti antey mid size vi 3rd anni cramped vuntayi..due to their sportier handling that they look in lux cars so you have to go for full size suv in Lux if you are looking for better 3rd row seating ..like QX80 etc
