  6. Other Choices (See why?)   Because the 2008 Mercedes-Benz R-Class is an automotive outlier, nothing compares directly to it. The Audi Q7 delivers on the luxury end of the R-Class experience, but its rear seats are not as comfortable as the Mercedes-Benz's. Plus, the Q7 looks like a traditional SUV and has a taller step-in height, a potential issue for older passengers. The Q7 will soon add a diesel engine to the V-6 and V-8 engines already offered.
