Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Iconic exterior design
Luxurious interior
Powerful engines
Commendable off-roading capabilities

Cons
Hard to get in and out
Not as much cargo space as expected
Unavailable with latest infotainment tech
Clumsy handling on pavement

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
A box-shaped rocket ship,
boosted performance doesn't compromise off-road prowess,
a millionaire's Jeep.

Cons
Boxy shape makes it overly noisy on the highway,
cornering is not a strong suit, high cost makes scratching it more concerning.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Refined and silky inline-six,
punchy acceleration,
modern and high-budget interior.

Cons
Opting for the coupe version costs $4150 and reduces practicality,
optional extras can bring the total to more than six figures,
BMW offers a twin-turbo V-8 at this price point.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Premium-feeling well-trimmed interior
Many standard safety and technology features
Effortless acceleration from either engine

Cons
Roofline compromises backseat headroom
Cargo space is similar to a compact SUV's
Only two trim levels available
On-road performance abilities limit off-road capability

By: 
edmunds.com

Stunning interior
Capable handling
Good list of standard options
Improved styling over previous generation
