TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2019 Land Rover Range Rover is no longer peak ultra-luxury SUV, but it’s still the purist’s best British choice.

The 2019 Mercedes-Benz G-Class may not look different than its predecessor, but its new suspension and interior bring it into the 21st century. Finally.

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

TCC Likes

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

Classic look retained
Almost certainly better on road
Updated, roomier interior

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

TCC Dislikes

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

Is it too derivative?
Independent front suspension may dillute off-road ability
Only one off-road mode

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