The never-ending balancing act between an SUV\u2019s size, price, efficiency, and maneuverability can make the car shopping experience tricky, especially if you need to maximize the space available for moving goods. Fortunately, there are still some full-size SUVs and crossovers, and even a few more compact alternatives, that offer lots of cargo space \u2014 and most of them offer more than 100 cubic feet of cargo room.<\/p>\n
Here are the top mainstream SUVs (priced below $75,000) from the 2024 model year that offer the most cargo space behind the first row. Note that some of our pricing information is estimated, as not all 2024 model year prices are available as of this writing.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 144.7 cubic feet<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $57,200\/$60,400 (estimated)<\/strong><\/p>\n We expect the 2024 Chevrolet Suburban and GMC Yukon XL models to return substantially unchanged from 2023, with a remake coming for 2025. A full-size SUV for a full-size life, the\u00a02024 Chevrolet Suburban\u00a0is up for just about anything \u2014 and it has the room to fit almost anything, too. If you prefer the GMC look, the\u00a0Yukon XL\u00a0is just as capable and spacious, and both offer more than 10% greater total cargo capacity as the next closest option.\u00a0<\/p>\n Also read: <\/strong>Here\u2019s how 6 of the best 3-row midsize SUVs ranked in a comparison test<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 130.9 cubic feet<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $64,595 (estimated)<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The\u00a0Jeep Wagoneer L\u00a0debuted as a 2023 model, so we don\u2019t expect major changes for 2024. Wagoneer is the Jeep brand\u2019s entry into the full-size SUV field, and it comes in swinging for the cargo space fences, topping all but the longtime segment leaders. It\u2019s also a stylish option with solid engine choices.\u00a0<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 122.9 cubic feet<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $54,200\/$57,400 (estimated)<\/strong><\/p>\n We expect the 2024 Chevrolet and GMC full-size SUVs to return unchanged from 2023 on the promise of a 2025 makeover. If you need space but not quite all of the space, the\u00a02024 Chevrolet Tahoe\u00a0or\u00a02024 GMC Yukon\u00a0may be a good fit. With about 85% of the cargo capacity and 100% of the capability of the Suburban\/Yukon XL twins, the Tahoe and Yukon are also available with GM\u2019s Super Cruise self-driving system.\u00a0<\/p>\n Check out:<\/strong> 10 new cars worth waiting for<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 121.5 cubic feet<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $62,590<\/strong><\/p>\n The\u00a02024 Ford Space behind front row: 116.7 cubic feet<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $61,595 (estimated)<\/strong><\/p>\n We expect the Jeep Wagoneer, which debuted as a 2022 model, to return unchanged for 2024. The\u00a0Jeep Wagoneer\u00a0is 12 inches shorter than the Wagoneer L, with a wheelbase shrinking seven, making it easier to maneuver and park while offering about 90% of the cargo space. If you expect to tow, the Wagoneer (and Wagoneer L) can pull up to 10,000 pounds when properly configured.\u00a0<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 104.6 cubic feet<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $55,525<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The\u00a02024 Ford\u00a0Expedition\u2019s size and capability are headline features, but it\u2019s also surprisingly refined to drive, with a rich interior and lots of standard and available equipment. Like the Max, the standard Expedition can be fitted with Ford\u2019s BlueCruise hands-free driver assist system and configured for more off-road use with the Timberline package.\u00a0<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 98.2 cubic feet<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $35,000 (estimated)<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n More carlike and comfort-focused than many of the truck-based options on this list, the all-new\u00a02024 Chevrolet Traverse\u00a0is a spacious SUV. To maximize the open, airy feeling of the cabin, look for models equipped with the optional panoramic dual-pane sunroof.\u00a0<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 97.5 cubic feet<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $43,070<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n An all-new model to the Toyota Also see: <\/strong>The powerful 2024 Toyota Sequoia: a hybrid 3-row SUV that can tow 9,000 pounds<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 97.4 cubic feet<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $43,900<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Comfortable, quiet, and well-equipped, even in base form, the 2024 Buick Enclave splits the difference between mainstream and luxury, delivering utility and value. The Enclave\u2019s third row is also one of the most comfortable and spacious, with 33.5 inches of legroom.\u00a0<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 96.6 cubic feet<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $37,725<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lots of modern tech and surprisingly responsive driving characteristics make the\u00a02024 Volkswagen Atlas\u00a0a fun choice among family-oriented 3-row midsize SUVs. New standard features for the 2024 Atlas include a 12-inch center display, IQ.DRIVE driver-assist tech, wireless charging, and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong> The Volkswagen Atlas is refreshed for 2024, and it\u2019s big, bold and agile<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 92.6 cubic feet\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $50,700 (estimated)\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n We expect the Armada to return for 2024 unchanged from 2023.

If you need space as well as a third row of seating that\u2019s good for occasional use, the 2024 4Runner is a good pick. For those seeking to do more extensive off-roading, the TRD Pro is an excellent choice.\u00a0<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 87.8 cubic feet\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $36,760\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The\u00a02024 Ford Explorer\u00a0spans a wide range of uses, with several engines to choose from and a wide range of trims. Base models get a 300-hp 2.3-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder, while sporty ST models and the King Ranch and Platinum trims get a 400-hp 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine. A hybrid option is available on Limited and Platinum trims, pairing a 3.3-liter V6 and an electric motor for 318 hp total output. Rear-wheel drive is standard, AWD is available, and even base models can tow up to 5,000 pounds.\u00a0<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 87.0 cubic feet\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $35,990\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Boldly styled and good at just about everything, the\u00a02024 Kia Read more:<\/strong> Value, space, styling, safety: The 2024 Kia Telluride is tops in the 3-row midsize SUV class<\/p>\n Space behind front row: 87.0 cubic feet<\/strong><\/p>\n Starting price: $37,090<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Completely redesigned last year, the\u00a02024 Honda Plus:<\/strong> The 2023 Subaru Ascent review: A family-friendly 3-row SUV with excellent safety ratings<\/p>\n While the SUVs listed above are often nicely equipped and can be optioned into very spendy territory, the ones below are even more luxurious.

\n Expedition Max\u00a0follows the familiar formula of offering a supersized version in addition to the standard full-size SUV. In this case, the Max expands the Expedition\u2019s standard cargo space by more than 15%, thanks to a slightly longer wheelbase.\u00a0<\/p>\n5. 2024 Jeep Wagoneer<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Front-wheel drive is standard, but AWD is available, and a single engine provides motivation, a 291-hp 3.8-liter V6. If you opt for the X-Pro models, the maximum towing capacity is 5,500 pounds, while the rest of the range maxes out at 5,000 pounds.\u00a0<\/p>\n15. 2024 Honda Pilot<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\n full-size SUVs, we expect the Cadillac Escalade to return unchanged for 2024, with a significant makeover coming in 2025. Unmistakable, imposing, and luxurious, the\u00a0Cadillac Escalade\u00a0and the longer, even more spacious Escalade ESV are icons of the SUV world. From spacious interiors and luxurious materials to mind-blowing performance in the 682-hp Escalade V models, this is an easy pick for someone who loves unabashed excess.\u00a0<\/p>\n
