Finding the right family SUV on the Connecticut Shoreline means thinking about more than just passenger space.

The Chevrolet SUV lineup checks every box, with options ranging from efficient compact crossovers to full-size haulers built for the biggest families.

What Are the Best Chevy SUVs for Families?
Chevy Equinox: The Best Compact SUV for Growing Families
The new Chevy Equinox is a standout choice for families who want everyday practicality without excess bulk. With a roomy cabin, intuitive infotainment and excellent fuel efficiency, the Equinox handles everything from tight parking near the Old Saybrook Town Green to longer drives on I-95 with ease.
Advanced safety features like automatic emergency braking and lane-keeping assist give parents added confidence, while a comfortable rear seat keeps kids happy on the way to school or the beach. And for an eco-friendly twist on this iconic Chevy SUV, ask about the new Equinox EV for sale nearby.
Chevy Traverse: The Go-To Family Road Trip SUV
When your family needs real three-row seating and the cargo space to back it up, the new Chevy Traverse delivers. With room for up to eight passengers and generous storage behind the third row, the Traverse is built for families who are always on the move -- from carpooling to weekend getaways along the Connecticut coast.
Available Chevy all-wheel drive adds traction for snowy Shoreline winters, and smart technology like wireless Apple CarPlay® and a rear-seat reminder system keep everyone connected and accounted for. Features like this make the Traverse a top choice at our local Chevy dealer.


Chevy Tahoe: The Top Full-Size Family SUV for CT Drivers
For larger families or households that need serious towing and hauling capability alongside premium comfort, the new Chevy Tahoe is tough to beat. The Tahoe SUV's spacious third row accommodates adults comfortably, and available features like a rear-seat entertainment system, tri-zone climate control and magnetic ride control make long drives feel effortless.
Whether you're towing a boat to Long Island Sound or loading up for a family ski trip, the Tahoe has the muscle and the refinement to handle it all. Test-drive a new Tahoe with the whole family today at Grossman Chevrolet and experience why road trips will never be boring again.
Chevy Suburban: The Most Spacious SUV for Large Families
The new Chevy Suburban is the ultimate choice for families who simply need more room. As the biggest Chevy SUV available and with seating for up to nine, the Suburban turns even the most ambitious family trip into a comfortable experience.
Three rows of genuine passenger space, available second-row captain's chairs and advanced noise-cancellation technology create a cabin that stays quiet and relaxed even when it's at full capacity. For Connecticut families with several kids, pets or road trip companions, the Suburban is in a class of its own.
