Competitors from Mercedes-Benz and BMW are relatively newer and just as opulent—although very pricey.
The Benz GLS-Class is a tony ‘ute with a lot of space.
The BMW X7 heaps on luxury fittings and brilliant powertrains, although top models can easily crest six figures.
The Volvo XC90 is relatively aged and a little smaller, although it still feels special inside.
The Cadillac XT6 is also relatively new, but does little to hide its shared structure with other GM vehicles.
The Acura MDX is the oldest of the bunch, but offers a hybrid powertrain and it’s a comparable value.
