Words such as sumptuous and lavish don’t properly illustrate how luxurious the palatial Mercedes-Maybach S-class truly is. Passengers can stretch out and relax on hot-stone-style massaging leather recliners and enjoy the Burmester audio system while an atomizer fills the cabin with one of Maybach’s five signature fragrances.
Pros High-class cabin, stretch-out rear seat, seriously quick.
Cons Self-driving features still need work, still resembles an S-class too much.
For 2018, the Maybach sedan receives freshened styling, more powerful high-beam headlights, the latest COMAND infotainment system, wireless charging for front and rear seats, and Mercedes' Energizing Comfort system.
PROS Exceptionally comfortable and quiet Outstanding rear-seat functionality and features Chock full of standard safety features Strong engines and brakes
CONS Mercedes heritage might not be special enough
The BMW X6 has powerful engines and a luxurious, high-tech cabin. You’ll forgo some space and practicality versus a BMW X5 though, and spend more doing it.
Pros SUVs don’t come much quicker Fantastic infotainment system Impressive interior quality
Cons X5 equivalent has better rear headroom Audi RS Q8 is easier on the eyes Smaller boot than every alternative
While the regular BMW X6 is in its fourth generation, the high-performance 2020 X6 M has just embarked on its third.

The 2020 iteration is more powerful for one, adding between 33 and 50 horsepower. Its bodywork received a subtle but sharper-looking makeover, and its cabin has been overhauled with a modernized aesthetic and better technology.
