The 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class manages to feel worth every dollar the automaker charges for its sublime ride, luxurious interior, and prodigious power.

Pros
Beautiful ride/handling balance
Gorgeous interior
Loads of luxury
Tons of power, no matter the model
Serious tech

Cons
So expensive
So heavy
So thirsty
And a few penny-pinching touches

The heart of the new Cayenne E-Hybrid plug-in is its powertrain, which follows a now familiar recipe: Take the root model’s engine and transmission—in this case a turbo 3.0-liter V-6 from the Cayenne tuned to 335 horsepower—then add a big battery and an electric motor.

Pros
A hybrid that tows 7716 pounds,
smooth transitions from electric to gas and back.

Cons
So nice that Porsche might become a company known more for hybrids than sports cars.

By:

The 2019 Porsche Cayenne twists performance DNA with a strand of off-road talent, and bridges the gap between “Porsche” and “SUV” perfectly.

Pros
Yes, performance; yes, SUV
Smart interior ditches pounds of buttons
All the custom touches
Five adults fit, no problem

Cons
Tech wizardry aside, still a big SUV
Ride, steering can be too stiff
Oh wow, check out the prices
