The 2018 GMC Yukon is an old-school SUV updated for the 21st century.

Pros
Muscular engines
Good for towing
Luxurious interior
Chiseled looks
Denali’s ride quality

Cons
Interior not that roomy on regular Yukon
Denali is eye-poppingly expensive
High liftover for cargo loading
Crossovers make more sense for most

The 2018 BMW X6 delivers eye-catching style and good driving dynamics, but is it still an SUV?
The 2018 BMW X6 four-door SUV is evolution, baby. It's a tall-riding crossover with a sleek roofline and the wild-child compared to the X5 from which it is based.

Pros
Eye-catching style
Strong engines
Refined interior
Decadent options

Cons
Compromised rear seat
Tight cargo area
Hugely expensive
Not really all that fun

By: 
thecarconnection.com

Unrestrained styling, raucous power, and surprising agility define the X6—although its fastback design limits rear-seat room and cargo space. A 300-hp 3.0-liter turbo inline-six with an eight-speed automatic can be ordered with either rear- or all-wheel drive. An audacious 445-hp 4.4-liter turbo V-8 is optional and comes only with all-wheel drive. The standard Driving Dynamics Control system allows for five distinct driving modes, and an available air suspension provides even more fine-tuning.

Pros
Lovely turbo-six thrust,
wonderful automatic transmission,
handsome interior.

Cons
Unlovely styling,
ponderous handling.

By: 
caranddriver.com

We'd maximize the sporting aspect with a bit of financial restraint, and opt for the X6 sDrive35i M Sport Design, equipped with Executive Tier and M adaptive suspension. The 3.0-liter turbocharged engine drives just the rear wheels to minimize weight, while the performance tires and adaptive suspension maximize dynamics.

PROS
Engines provide strong acceleration
Comfortable and quiet ride
Quality interior with comfortable front seats

CONS
Limited rear headroom
Hard to see out the back
Sloping roofline cuts down cargo space
