Popular Luxury SUVs to Avoid and What to Get Instead
Luxury SUVs are designed to offer all the key features of a mainstream model, such as a commanding view of the road, a spacious and well-equipped cabin, and the added security of available all-wheel drive. They are then wrapped in a stylish body that surrounds a cabin filled with leather touchpoints, high-quality trim, and additional sound-absorbing materials.
But while automakers promise that their SUVs will deliver you the ultimate luxury driving experience, even among these exclusive models some are far worse than their peers.
Just because an SUV is expensive or has an exclusive nameplate doesn’t mean it’s a good vehicle. Luxury SUVs aren’t immune from having an uncomfortable ride or maddening controls or being so problematic that you spend more time taking it in for service than you do using it for your daily needs.
