Pros Impressive handling for a crossover SUV Wide selection of powerful engines available Exquisite interior and build quality Plenty of customization options

For 2022, Porsche introduces the new Cayenne Turbo GT model, which includes maximum levels of performance and is only offered in the coupe body style. The Turbo GT rockets to the top of the Cayenne hierarchy with an enhanced version of the twin-turbo V-8 and myriad chassis enhancements. With 631 horsepower and 626 pound-feet of torque, Porsche claims the Turbo GT will go from zero to 60 mph in 3.1 seconds and complete the quarter-mile in 11.6 seconds.
Pros Arguably the most attractive of today's SUV coupes, incredibly engaging to drive, multiple marvelous powertrain options.
Cons Coupe body style compromises cargo space, largest wheels impair ride quality, some rivals offer similar performance for less.
The ultimate Audi crossover is convincingly sporty and properly useful.
Pros Suave and tech-savvy cabin, sporty and comfy ride, more useful than Audi sedans.
Cons Pricier than the more pragmatic Q7, distracting touchscreens, less fun to drive than Audi sedans.
The Audi Q8 is a luxurious, comfortable SUV but it isn't as sporty as its looks suggest, nor is it as practical as a Q7.
Pros Imposing looks Indulgent interior Advanced technology
Cons Numb handling Limited versatility Unproven ride comfort
Audi's Q7 is undoubtedly a practical three-row SUV, but maybe you find it to be a bit plain Jane when compared against sleeker rivals such as the Land Rover Range Rover or Porsche Cayenne.
Pros Comes well-equipped with many standard features Comfortable ride and seats for all passengers High-quality cabin Front and rear seats offer all-day comfort
Cons Less practical than the related Q7 New infotainment system can be distracting to use Throttle response is too slow in the default driving mode Limited interior storage space
