Pros Impressively quick acceleration, athletic chassis, high-end cabin with room for seven.
Cons Isn't particularly fuel efficient, options quickly escalate to a six-figure price tag, all-digital dash layout may irk some drivers.

Cons Needs more power outlets, especially in the second row Third row should be viewed as occasional only GXL is a steep climb in price from the GX, which remains solid value
