The Terrain is a near-twin to the Chevy Equinox, though the GMC gets a better transmission and has some nicer cues inside.

It may show its age, but the Honda CR-V is a solid choice with a spacious interior.
The Subaru Forester is our top choice as long as power isn’t a priority.
And the Mazda CX-5 may not be all that spacious, but it’s fun to drive.
