You want something with a powerful engine and you want a safe SUV. Unfortunately for you, you don’t have a lot of options – at least without spending a lot of money on a luxury SUV.

However, there are several V6 engines. here are the midsize SUVs on the IIHS Top Safety and Top Safety Pick+ list and what kind of engine comes standard in each of them.

The 2022 Ford Explorer has a 4-cylinder
