Cons Large exterior footprint for limited cargo space Absolute disregard for rear visibility Not for the introverted
It was quite possibly the first successful river crossing in a Lamborghini in decades. Not that others haven't tried. Plenty of curious things, we imagine, have happened in Lambo's road cars. And certainly someone forded a river in an LM002, back when the Rambo Lambo was fresh. But this was different. This Lamborghini, the Urus, isn't a devoted exotic. And it isn't a sworn off-roader. It's neither, and yet it's both. We went to Iceland to get familiar with the brand's second-ever SUV and to see if Lamborghini's carbuilding talents extend beyond its glittering wedges of decadent speed.
Pros Enormous spectrum of capability, exclusive blend of German temperament and Italian flair, Lambo quick.
Cons Complex, heavy, Lambo price tag.
The 2017 Porsche Cayenne is versatile and roomy, yet it possesses road and even track performance to satisfy enthusiasts. The 2017 Cayenne brings the attitude, and many of the visual cues, of Porsche's sports cars to a very family-friendly, sport-utility format. The lineup is varied, with the naturally aspirated base model, the turbocharged S, the S E-Hybrid plug-in, the amped up GTS, the incredibly powerful Turbo, and the even loonier Turbo S.
Pros Strong acceleration (all except base) Capable handling Lots of room for individualization A potent, fun-to-drive hybrid
Cons No third-row seating Interior isn't so space-efficient Underwhelming base model
The 2017 Porsche Cayenne ranks 3 out of 22 Luxury Midsize SUVs. The Porsche Cayenne is one of the highest-rated SUVs in its class, thanks to its deft handling ability and potent available engines. The well-appointed cabin is one of the most comfortable in the class. However, the Cayenne has a high starting price that climbs much higher with the upper trims.
Pros Strong acceleration with optional engines Superior handling ability Comfortable seats Stylish, well-made interior
Cons Hefty price tag Below-average cargo capacity
The 2017 Cayenne gets Porsche's latest (PCM 4.0) touchscreen infotainment system on every trim level, improving functionality. Limited Edition Cayenne and Cayenne S E-Hybrid Platinum models also join the range, bringing the trim level count up to eight. The Cayenne Diesel has been discontinued due to the Volkswagen diesel emissions scandal.
Pros Truly impressive handling for a crossover SUV Wide selection of strong engines available Exquisite interior and build quality Plenty of customization options
Cons Relatively small cargo capacity for the segment Quite a few optional features should be standard given the price tag
