TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2018 Land Rover Range Rover is the pinnacle of SUVs.

The Lexus LX 570 marries an old-school SUV portfolio with all the leather, all the wood, and almost all the space.

Sure, crossovers make more sense as luxury vehicles. But that's not why you want a 2018 Mercedes-Benz G-Class in your garage.

TCC Likes

Astounding capability regardless of terrain
Exceptional on-road ride and handling
Impressive engine lineup

Big V-8 power
Plush cabin
Great for towing

Classic authenticity
That “clunk” the doors make when they close
Wild off-road ability from the G550 4x4²

TCC Dislikes

Dual touchscreens’ learning curve
Eye-watering price
Design is beginning to show its age

Kludgy, tiny, fixed third-row seat
Horrible gas mileage
Elephantine handling

Or you could buy seven Jeep Wranglers, one for every weekday
Light on safety tech
G550 4x4² presents many urban challenges
