The Best Adventure Vehicles Awards List

While 2026 is the first year of the Best Adventure Vehicles Awards List, Mazda has placed itself right at the top. U.S. News and World Report created the list in response to growing consumer interest in models built specifically for adventurous lifestyles, highlighting everything from off-road camping adventures to road tripping.

The list is broken down into four categories: Best Off-Road Trucks, Best Off-Road SUVs, Best Vehicles for Road Trips, and Best Vehicles for Camping, and they are evaluated along criteria tailored specifically to those driving needs. For the off-roading categories, that means tires and departure angles. For the road tripping models and camping models, it means fuel economy and cargo space.

For the very first year of the Best Adventure Vehicles Awards list, the 2026 Mazda CX-90 PHEV has won not just one, but two distinctions. It was given the award for both Best Midsize Plug-In Hybrid SUV for Road Trips and Best Midsize Plug-In Hybrid SUV for Camping.
