Speaking strictly from an automotive standpoint, it’s the second child that really changes everything. For the most part, as long as you’ve got a back seat, any car can adapt to the necessities required to carry two adults and an infant. Some cars will be better at it than others, of course, but assuming the daily driver’s not a 2016 Mazda Miata or a motorcycle, whatever one happens to be driving when that first child comes along will do just fine.
No, the second kid is the game-changer. Whether you’re planning to stop at two or have more, now it’s time to seriously consider a “family” vehicle. For many young families that means a long-term investment. Raising a family doesn’t get any cheaper, so many folks look ahead and choose a vehicle that they can grow into.
For the past 30 years or so, that’s meant a minivan. After dethroning the traditional American station wagon in the early 1990s, minivans and SUVs have evolved to serve the needs of just about any family. But how to choose? Modern crossover vehicles and minivans both target families in different ways, and navigating the dizzying array of options can be overwhelming. Everyone has different priorities, depending on everything from snowy winters to insurance costs, but we’ve laid out some facts here that will help guide you.
