What is the best car for traveling?
I travel frequently to do photography whenever I get time off. Most of the travel I do is by car, and my current one died. I want to get a new car that’s great for long road trips. What’s the best car to suit my traveling needs?

That sounds like an amazing adventure and a great creative outlet! Generally speaking, the best travel car is the one that you love to drive. Unfortunately, this statement doesn’t always narrow down the scope of the purchase.
If you want to get a more accurate representation of a great travel car, look for these characteristics:
- Great fuel economy
- Enough trunk space or a cargo area to accommodate your equipment
- Comfortable to drive
- Handles great
- Appeals to your sense of adventure
- Has infotainment options
- Has the capability to get you where you need to go (all-wheel drive or four-wheel drive)
To get you started, here are some of the top-rated road trip vehicles as of 2021:
- Ram 1500
- Hyundai Elantra
- Kia Telluride
- Subaru Outback
- Jeep Grand Cherokee
