Outside of luxury brands it's hard to find foreign makers with a premium engine in the compact to mid-size SUV category. Ford offers a twin turbo echotech V6 in the Edge and GM has a V6 turbo engine available in the Acadia and Traverse as well.
For example the Mazda CX-9 GT trim which is a seven seater doesn't even have a V6 in it. While this is a fine vehicle in every other way with great handling, great interior etc. I felt it was underpowered going up hills and for highway mountain driving.
