Utilizing scores from the IIHS and NHTSA, here are the safest family SUVs of 2025 that also perform well on our road tests. 

Top Rated Three-Row SUVs

Kia Telluride

The Kia Telluride remains the standard by which all other three-row SUVs for family safety are judged, now receiving both the coveted IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ award and an overall 5-star rating from the NHTSA. This indicates that it performed very well in the most stringent crash tests of 2025, which includes the difficult revised moderate overlap front test that focuses on rear-passenger protection—important to families with kids. 

All Tellurides are equipped with full safety suite, including automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, lane departure warning, and rear cross-traffic alert. Now available for 2025: Highway Driving Assist 2 for even safer long distance driving. With its ability to seat eight people, its 87 cubic feet of cargo room, and a starting price slightly north of $37,805, the Telluride is just about a no-brainer when it comes to value. 

Hyundai Palisade

Bring along the Hyundai Palisade, an outfit-style Telluride cousin that still keeps safety front and center. It received a 5-star overall rating from the NHTSA and the 2025 IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ award. And underneath the Telluride’s hood is that same proven 3.8L V6 engine, delivering plenty of 291 horsepower power.
