If you’re shopping for a safe and spacious new Hyundai car for your family, you now have four award-winning options to consider. The automotive experts at PARENTS magazine recently came out with their 2026 Best Family Car Awards, and Hyundai was a big winner. Here at MotorWorld Hyundai, we are incredibly proud to help Wilkes-Barre, PA, parents find an award-winning model that best fits their needs.
Hyundai Palisade Lineup: Premium Family Comfort
When judging the midsize three-row SUV lineup, the judges praised the gasoline-powered Hyundai Palisade for its incredibly calm cabin and easy-to-access LATCH anchor points. The three-row Hyundai SUV took home the “Best Mid-Size 3-Row SUV” title thanks to family-friendly features like a floating center console that maximizes front-row storage space. The new XRT trim provides off-road versatility for adventurous families.
Meanwhile, the first-ever Hyundai Palisade Hybrid won the “Best Hybrid SUV” award by having exceptional fuel economy without sacrificing amenities or performance. Even the entry-level hybrid trims come standard with heated seats and second-row captain’s chairs.
Electric Hyundai Models for the Modern Family
For families ready to make the move to a battery-powered Hyundai model, the automaker won two awards in the electric vehicle categories. The Hyundai IONIQ 5 was named the “Best Electric 5-Passenger Vehicle” due to its quick charging times and an airy cabin design that feels larger than its footprint.
If your family requires maximum passenger volume, the all-new Hyundai IONIQ 9 won “Best 3-Row EV” thanks to its calm, quiet interior and an impressive EPA-estimated range of over 300 miles. It even has a convenient NACS charging port for seamless on-the-go charging.
