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 GLS-Class wears its old-school heart on its sleeve, proudly.

Exceptional on-road ride and handling
Impressive engine lineup

Plenty of cargo- and people-space

TCC Dislikes

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

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