SUVs are a handy way to transport cars full of kids or luggage quickly and easily. For those who don’t need off-roading capabilities, a midsize crossover is the perfect fit.<\/p>\n

When purchasing an SUV, one important consideration is fuel economy. SUVs have a reputation for being gas guzzlers, but new technology and the smaller size of crossovers has improved efficiency, according to Edmunds.<\/p>\n

In this class, the Ford<\/a> Edge and Honda<\/a> Crosstour lead the way with 18 city\/27 highway miles per gallon. City drivers may consider the Toyota<\/a> Venza, which trades one mpg on the highway (26) for one in the city (19). The Nissan Murano gets 18 in the city with 23 on the highway, while the Chevy Equinox posts 17\/25, although they are a bit roomier than the others. All of the cars feature 6-cylinder engines.<\/p>\n

Car buyers should balance their desire for efficiency with their need for space and features. The Ford Edge has a slight, well, edge, over the competition, as it has just undergone a complete redesign for 2011, according to the Detroit Free Press.<\/p>\n

With the new Ford Edges being introduced, drivers can search the used car market for any 2010 Edges that dealers were unable to sell. They can also find deals on all the cars mentioned above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
