Is the Best Luxury SUV a Porsche, BMW, or Audi?
We test-drove three popular models to find out which car blends the very finest in convenience, comfort, and performance.
The $97,200 Cayenne GTS is a slick blend of luxury, off-road handling, and smooth performance. The $60,600 base Cayenne has a 300-horsepower V-6 engine and all-wheel drive, but the GTS I tested gets to 440 hp. It goes from zero-60 miles per hour in 4.9 seconds—impressive.
Drivers who like power will admire its assertive grip around curves and fearless acceleration. Aesthetes will love its singular exterior beauty. Inside, the generous space is leather-lined, and the intuitive infotainment system, rain-sensing wipers, and power-lift tailgate all come standard. The excellent park assist with front and rear cameras is a good investment. The trunk offers more than 60 cubic feet of space with the seats laid flat.
