Best 7-Seater SUV for Road Trips 2023
BY FALCON CAR RENTAL
Road trips with the family generally mean that space in your vehicle is of the utmost importance. Most often, the choice in a rental comes down to either a boring minivan or SUV, but it doesn’t have to. Whether you care more about luxury and comfort or pure performance, there’s a luxury SUV rental in Miami ready to make the drive fun and enjoyable.
Luxury and Presence: Cadillac Escalade Rental in Miami
The Cadillac Escalade was initially designed as an answer to the Lincoln Navigator but has since become synonymous with the term “luxury SUV.” With its latest generation, Cadillac has given the Escalade a stately, towering appearance, with tall sides and angular features. Whenever a current production Escalade pulls up, onlookers turn to see who’s arriving and whether they should pull out their cameras.
Beyond the impressive stature of the Cadillac Escalade ESV, renters will be dazzled by the technology inside. Front occupants are greeted by 38 inches of screen space, offering unparalleled control over every function. Augmented reality assists with GPS navigation, and a 16-speaker sound system will convince passengers that they’re inside a recording studio.
As you and your family become used to the unrivaled tech in your Cadillac Escalade ESV rental in Miami, take note of the upscale materials and supremely comfortable seats. Set the interior ambient lighting to everyone’s preference, and let occupants stretch out in one of the vehicle’s three rows.
When you want to flex the Escalade’s muscles, a 420 hp 6.2-liter V8 is at the ready, and despite being a massive three-row SUV with 25.5 cubic feet of cargo space, the ESV dashes to 60 mph in only 6.1 seconds. And even then, it still manages 19 MPG on the highway.
Your Cadillac rental in Los Angeles will make you feel like a diplomat or celebrity everywhere you go, but if you’re in the mood for a luxury SUV with some sports car DNA, take a look at our next option.
Performance and Comfort: Range Rover P530 LWB Rental in LA
What sets the P530 apart from other luxury SUVs like the Cadillac Escalade is its ability to mimic a sports car. Its 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 produces a thunderous 523 hp, giving even the long wheelbase (LWB) trim levels a 0-60 time in the mid-4-second range.
When the road starts to twist, don’t let up. Set the dial from “Comfort” to “Dynamic,” and the adjustable air suspension changes from supreme insulated comfort to what you’d find in a capable performance car. Four-wheel steering ensures that tight turns are no problem, and strong brakes ensure you’re able to carry speed through the esses without fear.
Once you’re back to cruising, you’ll be able to focus on the P530’s plush seats and excellent tech. Voice controls let you focus on the road, and adaptive cruise reduces driving fatigue.
Front-row occupants have 24 ways to adjust their seats, and even 2nd and 3rd-row passengers have cushioning that would be welcome in a sofa. The only real concession is its minimal 8.7 cubic feet of storage space behind the 3rd row, but the performance leap over the Cadillac, for instance, may make that a non-issue for you.
Now, as fast and capable as your Range Rover rental in Los Angeles can be, if you want to experience otherworldly acceleration, check out our last pick below.
Silent and Ferocious: Tesla Model X Rental in LA
The Model X actually seats six, but that’s an issue that will disappear once you punch the accelerator. If you’re coming to Falcon Car Rental looking for a Tesla rental in Los Angeles for your next road trip, we have a Model X Plaid ready to whisk you away.
The Plaid offers more than 300 miles of range while also providing more than 1,000 hp. Tesla charging stations are widespread, so you can test the Plaid’s 2.5-second 0-60 time. That’s the same time as the 250-mph Bugatti Veyron hypercar!
Describing the interior of the Tesla as “futuristic” is perhaps understated. The steering wheel is not even a wheel and is instead a yoke. No controls are obvious aside from a few buttons on the spokes of the yoke, as every other function is controlled by the massive center screen.
Entry into the Plaid is similarly space-age. Its rear doors are called “falcon doors,” which open up with a hinge in the middle, similar to a DeLorean or a vintage Mercedes 300 SL, and sensors ensure they don’t hit vehicles on either side or parking garage roofs.
