Best car for a family of four from $20,000-$30,000

I'm looking for a new car suitable for a family of four and I don't know where to start. There are just so many options. Should I be looking at SUVs, medium-sized cars, large cars etc.? Would I be better off looking for a used car rather than a new car? I would preferably like something in the $20,000 range, but could stretch to the low $30,000s. Can you help me narrow down the range to 4 or 5 suitable cars?

It's hard to make recommendations without knowing much about what you want. The choices of vehicles for a family of four are many and varied, as you say. I would consider a Kia Sportage SUV, Toyota Camry mid-sized sedan, or a Ford Falcon is you want a large sedan. You would certainly be better off shopping for a one to two-year-old used car.
