TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2019 Infiniti QX80 full-size luxury SUV is aging well, even though it’s still relatively aged.

The 2019 Lincoln Navigator reclaims the past with an epic interior and a tidal wave of torque.

The 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class wears its old-school heart on its sleeve, proudly.

TCC Likes

Better looking
Big V-8 power
Quiet and calm interior

Unabashed, at long last
Even the third row’s spacious
Excellent twin-turbo V-6

Plenty of cargo- and people-space
Flexible seating
Luxury SUV-levels of swank

TCC Dislikes

Aged compared to others in the class
Still a big, bulky SUV
Doesn’t handle very well

Bigger, heavier
Does Lincoln concierge service meet Lexus standards?
Base model’s average warranty

No diesel option
COMAND system is due for replacement
Middling gas-engine fuel economy
