SUV with 'proper' auto

I am looking to buy an SUV (about Tiguan size) and want an auto box with torque converter type. Can you point me in the right direction by suggesting some with a 'proper auto box'.

Current Kia Sportage and Sorento and Hyundai ix35 and Santa Fe have six speed torque converter autos. The Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV-4 diesel autos are five speed torque converter. The BMW F25 X3 diesel has an eight speed torque converter auto.
