What SUV is best for occasional towing?

We want to upgrade our cars and to have only one car as we are retired. We are choosing between the Honda CR-V, Kia Sorento platinum diesel, Mazda CX-5, Hyundai Tucson or the Santa Fe. We need to tow a trailer occasionally so which would you recommend? Seven seats would be an option.

You should drive and compare the CX-5, the long-term leader in its class, and the new Tucson. Don’t go for seven seats unless you really need them because of the extra price and ongoing penalty in running costs.
