After being delayed a year, the plug-in hybrid powertrain finally launches on 2020 Range Rover models. Known as P400e, the electrified powertrain consists of a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and an electric motor—together they make 398 combined horsepower—and can power the big Range Rover for up to 31 miles on electricity alone. But that's not the only powertrain change for 2020: The base V-6 engine from last year has been replaced with a turbocharged inline-six with electric assist. In the base P360, it makes 355 horsepower and in the HSE P400, it makes 395..
Pros Looks as expensive as it is, posh cabin, wide range of available engines.

The 2020 Aston Martin DBX is a midsize SUV that the British company unveiled in 2019. The first SUV to wear an Aston Martin badge, the DBX rides on an exclusive platform, but shares powertrain elements with the company’s sports cars. Powered by the same 4.0-liter V-8 found in the DB11 and the Vantage, the DBX boasts 542 horsepower, which turns it into a competitor for the Bentley Bentayga and the Lamborghini Urus. Likewise, the DBX sports a luxurious interior and is available with a wide range of options.
Pros Borrows Styling Cues From Other Current Astons Can’t Miss That Big Rear Ducktail Coupe-Style Roof Looks Sporty Overall
Cons Doesn’t Have Plastic Body Cladding Big Front Grille Midsize Dimensions Big Exhaust Pipes
The DBX is totally new for 2020 and is Aston's first SUV. Look for it to go on sale in May 2020.The DBX marks the legendary British sports-car maker's first foray into SUV territory—and its simultaneous entrance into high-end family transportation. The company best known for supplying James Bond with his wheels now aims to capitalize on the hugely popular crossover market that has already seduced iconic rivals such as Lamborghini with its wild Urus SUV. Aston Martin says the DBX will perform with the same liveliness and grace as its range of revered performance cars as well as demonstrate the impressive off-road and towing capabilities that are expected of ultra-expensive luxury crossovers.
There’s a key difference between this and the Lamborghini Urus: the latter wants to show you it can do anything a supercar can. The DBX makes its own rules. I really liked how it mixed dynamic fluency with precision and feel.
Pros Engaging, tactile handling makes for more driver appeal than most fast SUVs manage to create Soulful V8 soundtrack and usable, considered performance
Cons Design-led interior perhaps isn’t as roomy-feeling as it could be Infotainment system desperately needs upgrading
