25 best family SUVs

Skoda Kodiaq

The Kodiaq is our top family SUV not from a premium manufacturer, and it undercuts even the cheapest of the plusher offerings on this list by over £9000.So what are you sacrificing? A chunk of premium-feel materials for a start, although everything feels well screwed together. The top four all have better balanced handling and ride quality than the Kodiaq, but not all of them offer a third row of seats.Aside from the slightly over-firm and remote way in which the Kodiaq drives, though, there's little room for improvement. An oily-bits facelift could easily rectify its main problems.
