Luxury SUV

It used to be the case that if you were seeking ultimate luxury, you’d choose a large saloon car from the likes of Bentley or Mercedes. But today, luxury SUVs have become the ultimate luxury status symbol.

Indeed, those traditional luxury brands have shifted their attention to lavish this high-end part of the market with models which blend the finest materials, in a cossetting environment fitted with the latest technology. Many are available with electric or plug-in hybrid power which reduces running costs, but more importantly, makes them even smoother and quieter to drive.

from £55,495
The new Mercedes GLC Electric is a practical, spacious and comfortable premium SUV, but it has some tough competition

from £47,535
Strikes a sweet balance between ride comfort and handling finesse, and that V8 engine sounds spectacular.

The X5 has a great interior and is good to drive but some rival SUVs are more practical

BMW X3 M Competition

from £96,120
The first properly M-fettled X3

It may not be the sensible SUV choice, but the Lamborghini Urus blends jaw-dropping pace with comfort and enough practicality to be usable every day

BMW X6

from £72,499

from £59,900
There are more practical and cheaper luxury SUVs, but if you want that coupé-SUV look, the classy, spacious and refined Audi Q8 will not disappoint.

Porsche Macan

from £60,905
The Porsche Macan is definitely the one to buy if you want the best-handling SUV, but it’s pricey and falls short on space

Range Rover Velar

from £52,500
The Range Rover Velar is a stylish, refined and seriously appealing SUV, but there are better-finished and more practical alternatives

Bentley Bentayga

from £176,390
The Bentley Bentayga excels in performance and luxury, but not by enough for it to make more sense than its cheaper rivals

New Mercedes GLE

from £78,130
The Mercedes GLE has lots of equipment and space for the price, but some of its rivals are better to drive and more efficient.

Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio

BMW X4

BMW Alpina XB7

from £74,335

Volkswagen Touareg R

from £58,201
The plug-in hybrid Touareg R is Volkswagen's most powerful model but there are better fast SUVs available

DS 7

from £38,400
The DS 7 Crossback is a well-equipped, comfortable and practical large SUV, but its pricing and interior quality are questionable

Mercedes GLE Coupé

from £78,130
It’s got a gutsy diesel engine and a comfortable ride, but the Mercedes GLE Coupé’s price and practicality let it down.

from £59,585
Luxury SUV is safe and well equipped, but its firm ride and inefficient petrol engine prevent it from threatening the class leaders

from £55,295
Big comfortable and capable, but the VW Touareg’s interior quality is a disappointment

from £103,420
The Mercedes GLS has plenty of space, lots of equipment and a comfortable ride. Lags behind the best on quality, economy and refinement.
