Elon Musk says larger Tesla for big families in the works, according to literally nobody, and the author is jumping to conclusion for clicks.
When the Kia Telluride debuted in 2020, it immediately impressed us with its thoughtful design, high levels of comfort, and accommodating third-row seats. Now, it seems the company is working the same magic on the similarly sized battery electric, three-row 2025 Kia EV9.

The VinFast VF9 is a three-row, six-to-seven passenger, battery electric SUV from Vietnamese carmaker VinFast. Originally called the VF e36 when it was teased , it is among the company’s first vehicles to be offered in North America , along with the smaller VF8 crossover.

As a three-row SUV analog to the R1T pickup, the Rivian R1S shares the pickup’s core competencies: impressive acceleration and range, decent off-road chops, a comfortable interior, and distinctive exterior styling. And like its pickup sibling, the R1S SUV benefits from a comprehensive roundup of hardware updates for the 2025 model year.

Are the Tesla Model Y’s Third-Row Seats Worth It? You can make the Tesla Model Y a three-row, seven-passenger electric SUV for $2,000, but is it a good idea?

There are so many interesting aspects to the 2024 Model X — the panoramic windshield, the upward-opening falcon-wing doors and the sports car-beating acceleration — that you can almost overlook the fact that the Tesla Model X is electric.

For the Mercedes-Benz faithful who are ready to step into the electric future—and have the deep pockets necessary to do so—the 2024 Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV is here. Introduced in 2023, this size-large EQS SUV is, as the name implies, the crossover alternative to Merc’s EQS luxury electric sedan.

While Mercedes EVs like the EQE sedan/SUV and the EQS sedan/SUV are clean-sheet designs without gas-powered analogues, the EQB is a near-direct port of a gas model with an electric powertrain swapped in.

At long last, the 2025 Lucid Gravity is here. Offered as a two- or three-row SUV, the Gravity uses what Lucid says is a new platform from Air and adds a higher seating position, a more spacious cabin, and SUV styling. Using the same 112-kWh battery pack as the Lucid Air Grand Touring, the Gravity is expected to top 440 miles of range.

Cadillac takes another step toward its all-electric future with the 2025 Escalade IQ three-row SUV. It’s one of three new EVs arriving in the coming months from the luxury brand and joins existing electric cars including the Lyriq midsize crossover and Celestiq flagship sedan.
