Pros
Astounding capability regardless of terrain
Exceptional on-road ride and handling
Impressive engine lineup
As comfortable as any vehicle anywhere

Cons
Dual touchscreens’ learning curve
Eye-watering price
Design is beginning to show its age
Great off-road, but so rare to see a dirty one

The 2018 Land Rover Range Rover ranked #4 in Luxury Large SUVs. Currently the Land Rover Range Rover has a score of 8.3 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 36 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Legendary off-road ability
Cushioned ride
Roomy, posh cabin
Powerful engines

Cons
Cumbersome infotainment system
Less cargo space than competitors
High price

By:

For 2018, a number of minor design tweaks have been made to the exterior and interior. Most notably the interior ditches a lot of knobs and buttons in favor of a second touchscreen. New, top-of-the-line seats are available, and the SVAutobiography Dynamic trim gets a slight bump in horsepower.

PROS
Excellent balance of off-road ability and luxury
A wealth of interior and exterior options for customizing
Long-wheelbase variant provides additional rear legroom
Available with a diesel engine

CONS
Standard engine's modest power may disappoint
Capability means compromise, and highway steering may be too heavy for some
Large wheels can bring vibration and noise into the cabin at highway speeds

The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class is a three-row crossover SUV that redefines luxurious family transport.

Pros

Posh interior
Strong turbocharged engines
Impressive dynamics
AMG, Maybach editions sure to come

Cons
Hefty price
Hefty curb weight
Hefty fuel consumption
Occasional cheap touch

Sitting atop the Mercedes-Benz SUV hierarchy is the spacious and indisputably luxurious GLS-Class. It's all new for 2020 and it has big shoes to fill—we've named the outgoing GLS-Class to our 10Best Trucks and SUVs list for three straight years—but our first impressions of this new big Benz are very good.

Pros
Tech-rich cabin, spacious in all three rows, refined powertrains.

Cons
Anonymous styling, fussy infotainment system, heavily optioned models carry high price tags

By: 
caranddriver.com

New styling in line with other Mercedes SUVs.Powerful mild hybrid powertrains.Standard adjustable air suspension.All-new third GLS generation launched for 2020.

Pros
MBUX infotainment is outstanding
Tops in comfort and easily seats adults in all three rows
Flexible cargo capacity
Responsive powertrains feel like driving a smaller SUV

Cons
Not as off-road-worthy as some rugged competitors
Somewhat vague steering with large wheels and thin tires
MBUX has a steep learning curve
