(iSeeCars) - The subcompact SUV with the most legroom is the Chevrolet TrailBlazer (39 inches), with the Kia Sportage being the small and compact SUV with the most legroom (41.3 inches). The Jeep Wagoneer L ranks #1 for the midsize SUVs with the most legroom (42.7 inches).The large SUV with the most legroom is the Jeep Grand Wagoneer L (42.7 inches) and the crossover SUV with the most legroom is the Hyundai PALISADE (42.4 inches). Topping the list for the three-row SUVs with the most legroom is the Jeep Wagoneer L (42.7 inches), while the Ford Escape Hybrid ranks first for the hybrid SUVs with the most legroom (42.4 inches).The plug-in hybrid SUV with the most legroom (PHEV) is the Kia Sorento Plug-In Hybrid (40.3 inches), with the Kia EV9 being the electric SUV with the most legroom (42.8 inches). SUVs are the best cars at offering a wide range of functionality and capability, which is why they’ve overtaken even pickup trucks to become the dominant vehicle in U.S. sales charts and new car showrooms. Family shoppers seeking maximum interior space, with sufficient second- and third-row headroom and legroom, often turn to full-size SUVs. Several midsize SUVs also include three rows of seating and a surprisingly spacious interior, but taller drivers may want to avoid any smaller SUV segments, depending on their height and number of passengers.To help identify the SUVs with the most legroom, iSeeCars has ranked SUVs by their second row legroom. Back seat legroom is an effective predictor of roomy front seat space, because SUVs with plenty of rear legroom also consistently offer excellent front legroom and third-row legroom. The SUVs listed below are ranked across every major size and price segment, with driver’s seat, rear seat, and (when applicable) third row space listed in inches of legroom.Additional information provided for each SUV includes fuel economy estimates, total seating capacity, and new and used car pricing.While second row legroom is a good starting point, tall drivers looking for a comfortable SUV should consider additional factors, including a power-adjustable steering wheel, height adjustable front seats, the impact of a sunroof on front headroom, and available captain's chairs for second-row seats. A test drive at your local dealership can answer many of these questions and allow buyers to verify a comfortable driving position and sufficient passenger space.Beyond size and interior space considerations, buyers need to consider whether front-, rear-, or all-wheel drive best matches their driving needs. All-wheel drive adds confidence and capability in inclement weather or when off-roading, but it will negatively impact mpg ratings. For serious off-road adventures, models with four-wheel drive and a low-range transfer case, including the Ford Bronco, Jeep Wrangler, and Toyota Land Cruiser, offer plenty of headroom and legroom for tall drivers.All-wheel drive is a better option for urban dwellers looking for security on rain-slicked or snow-packed roads. Three-row SUVs like the Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, Ford Expedition, Nissan Pathfinder, and Volkswagen Atlas offer all-wheel drive as an option, while the Subaru Ascent includes it as a standard feature.Two-row SUVs like the Chevy Equinox, Honda CR-V, Mazda CX-5, and Subaru Forester still provide roomy interiors, and their smaller sizes combine with fuel-efficient powertrains to deliver higher mpg ratings. Hybrid and electric SUVs are also listed below for shoppers looking to further reduce, or even eliminate, their fuel budget. These models also tend to include more tech-oriented amenities, such as larger infotainment system touchscreens and advanced connectivity features, as standard equipment.Seeking the roomiest SUVs that also best meet your needs means identifying not only the SUVs with the most legroom but also the best overall models. Each SUV listed below includes ratings for safety, reliability and resale value.
