This three-time 10Best winner (2017, 2018, and 2019) offers a comfortable ride and stylish wares.In many ways, you can think of the Q7 as a less ostentatious alternative to the Bentley Bentayga that shares underpinnings with this Audi three-row SUV.Used examples of second-generation Audi Q7s in clean condition with less than 100,000 miles are available for less than $15,000. Predictably, opting for a lesser mileage example adds to the final tab.AdvertisementAdvertisementSHOP AUDI Q7Marc Urbano - Car and Driver (Marc Urbano - Car and Driver)2019–Present Mercedes-Benz GLS-ClassBack in 2019, we named the then-new Mercedes-Benz GLS450 to our 10Best list. More than a half-dozen years later, this generation of GLS-class, meaning used 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS-classes and newer, continues to soldier on as the brand's flagship gas-powered three-row people mover.While a new GLS-class runs north of $90,000, used examples in good condition with less than 100,000 miles are currently available for right around $20,000. Used 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLS-class and newer variants feature a handful of mid-cycle tweaks, which may make these variants slightly more desirable to folks intent on keeping up with the Joneses.If you fall into this crowd, then expect to spend between $50,000 and $60,000 for a clean example with less than 50,000 miles on the clock. Be warned, though, that Mercedes plans to update the GLS-class once again for the 2027 model year.AdvertisementAdvertisementSHOP MERCEDES-BENZ GLS-CLASSMercedes-Benz (Mercedes-Benz)2021–Present Genesis GV80Unlike the aforementioned Audi and Mercedes SUVs, the Genesis GV80 does not offer a standard third row of seats. This means that buyers looking to purchase a used 2021 Genesis GV80 or newer model need to double-check that the specific vehicle they're looking at includes this item.Regardless of seat count, every GV80 model impresses with its high-quality interior materials, quiet cabin, and deft driving dynamics. Particularly when equipped with the available twin-turbo V-6. Lesser four-cylinder GV80s feel more burdened by the SUV's mass.Plan on spending a little less than $30,000 for a used three-row GV80 with under 100,000 miles in clean condition, with sub-50,000-mile examples selling for about $10,000 more.AdvertisementAdvertisementSHOP GENESIS GV80Michael Simari - Car and Driver (Michael Simari - Car and Driver)Tips and InsightsGet a Pre-Purchase InspectionThe best thing you can do before purchasing a used vehicle is to have a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) done. It's a simple process: find and pay a local mechanic to give the vehicle you're considering a lookover to ensure there are no hidden issues. It's a small price to pay for peace of mind.Get a Vehicle History ReportThe second-best thing you can do before purchasing a used vehicle is to get its history report. Make sure there are no mileage discrepancies or major car accidents on record that could jeopardize the vehicle's value or safety. Be sure to get under any used car if possible. You'll want to make sure there's no sign of rust setting in. Be sure to look and feel under the wheel wells, too.Car and Driver (Car and Driver)You Might Also LikeGift Guide: Best Ride-On Electric Cars for KidsFuture Cars Worth Waiting For: 2025–2029
