What do the 2021 Kia Telluride, 2021 Honda Pilot and 2021 Subaru Ascent all have in common? Third row? Check. Plenty of cargo space? Check. Technology features for everyone in the family? Check. So what sets each of these midsize SUVs apart from one another and which one is the right choice for you? In this midsize SUV comparison test video, Ryan ZumMallen answers that very question. We also detail what's new and what we like and don't like about each vehicle.

The Kia Telluride has been a favorite of ours since its release a couple of years ago — in fact, we named it the Edmunds Top Rated SUV two years in a row. We also acquired one for a yearlong test (read more https://edmu.in/3paAZDk). The Telluride just does everything right. The spacious, luxury-like feel to the interior should please family members of all ages. And with a third row that adults can comfortably sit in, it's easy to see why the Kia Telluride is a hit with consumers and critics alike.

The Honda Pilot is one of the most well-rounded midsize SUVs you can get. The Pilot's engine is powerful yet fuel efficient, making everyday around-the-city driving fun and easy. The interior of the Pilot showcases smart use of space and an abundance of practical features. All of this, plus a roomy interior, plenty of cargo space and great towing capabilities, makes the Pilot a solid choice for anyone looking for a 3-row family SUV.

The Subaru Ascent often gets lost in the sea of midsize SUVs. It's not flashy like the Telluride and not as practical as the Pilot. However, the Ascent has plenty to offer families and drivers looking for a midsize 3-row SUV. Like all Subarus and unlike the other two SUVs, the Ascent comes standard with all-wheel drive and includes software-controlled traction and hill descent control. It's a rugged SUV that you will feel as comfortable driving on the streets as you do taking it off-road.

Overall, it's hard to go wrong with any of these three midsize SUVs. They all offer a third row and plenty of space for a growing family. Technology features are aplenty and all three SUVs would look great sitting in your driveway. We have our favorite, but the decision ultimately comes down to your personal preference. So whether you're looking for the overall refinement of the Kia Telluride, the practicality of the Honda Pilot, or the ruggedness of the Ascent, we at Edmunds are here to help make your decision a little easier. This is the Kia Telluride vs. Honda Pilot vs. Subaru Ascent in our 2021 three-row midsize SUV comparison test.
