Good midsize SUVs for highway driving

Asked by Dave N

I currently have a leased 2014 Hyundai iX35 Trophy edition, and am looking to get either a Mazda Maxx Sport CX-5 or the new Hyundai Tucson, or do you have another recommendation? My priorities are safety then cabin noise as we do a lot of highway driving. We don't need 4WD, but if possible I'd like a bit more grunt than our current car. Our price range is in the $30-$35K range.

The CX-5 and Tucson are both highly rated medium SUVs, and I’m sure both would be good choices for your needs. Both are refined and cabin noise doesn’t appear to be a problem with either of them. If I were to choose I would go for the CX-5.
