10 Best Luxury SUVs On The Market

Luxury SUVs now offer more great features than ever before. The best examples include the Bentley Bentayga that features a sports car beating 190-mph top speed and the Mercedes-Benz G-Class with three locking differentials.

Most of these large and lavish automobiles are becoming fuel-efficient, too. The BMW X7 features an array of different powertrains, including a diesel engine that offers a combined consumption of 35.3 to 36.2 mpg. The Cadillac Escalade also features a diesel engine that’s capable of achieving 26 mpg on the highway.

The X7 stands out as one of the best large luxury SUVs. It offers well-rounded performance from its array of six-cylinder and V8 engines.

7 Jeep Grand Wagoneer

The new 2022 Jeep Grand Wagoneer is Jeep’s take of the luxury SUV. The Grand Wagoneer has all the upscale content to compete with all luxury SUVs that feature six-figure price tags. It features a standard four-wheel drive and a 471-hp V8.

The Grand Wagoneer offers a comfortable ride because of the air suspended chassis that also features an IRS.

Even though it took Jeep 30 years to give us the Grand Wagoneer, it’s clear that they have pulled out all stops to make it the best vehicle.

6 Land Rover Range Rover

The Land Rover Range Rover has been the luxury SUV benchmark for years. It rivals most luxury limousines with its refinement, grace, and upmarket style.

However, the real trick of the Range Rover is its ability to handle any off-road terrain while surrounding you with luxury car comfort and a leather-lined, sumptuous interior.

5 Cadillac Escalade

The Cadillac Escalade is a true American icon. The new generation of the Escalade feels like Cadillac spent some time and money on the development. It features a range-topping 420 hp V8 coupled with a 10-speed automatic transmission that drives either all four wheels or the rear wheels.

The Escalade is surprisingly classy, and its large scale helps provide acres of interior space. It also features great lighting and minimalist touches. The Escalade has three tows with six seats, and it also features a 36 speaker AKG sound system with a pair in both front seat headrests.

4 Aston Martin DBX

The DBX is an outstanding luxury SUV that offers a comfortable ride. It achieves this with its active anti-roll system and three-chamber air suspension. This athletic SUV is surprisingly docile and a performer with its 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine.

The same engine that powers a version of the DB11, Vantage Coupe, and plenty of Mercedes-AMG vehicles. The DBX is a pretty quick SUV that delivers a sub 4.0 second 0 to 60 mph acceleration time and a top speed of 181 mph.

However, it retains all its proportional aspects, and an updated interior featuring a new digital instrument cluster and infotainment display to elegantly modernize the cabin.

The Bentayga also features impressive powertrains with a Porsche twin-turbo hybrid V8 and the monstrous W12.
