Reviews SummaryWith options quickly disappearing in the near-luxury large SUV segment, the GMC Yukon XL seems to deliver with a duo of powerful engines, a wealth of seating and storage, and 8,000 pounds of towing capacity. But manufacturing oversights and some competent competition mean you should strongly consider alternatives before making your decision. Before you discount the Yukon entirely, take a look at improvements that have been added to the 2016: a faster processor for its IntelliLink system, Apple CarPlay, and added safety features like lane-keep assist and auto high beams, plus SLT trims and above are now fitted with a hands-free power rear liftgate. | |
Reviews SummaryLuxury can mean different things to different types of car buyers, and it has meant different things in different eras. Once upon a time it meant way-big sedans, miles of leather, and maybe even the option of power windows or a landau cover. That definition of luxury has evolved, and now cars are available with the latest in high-tech entertainment and safety features, integrated seamlessly. The 2017 INFINITI QX60 delivers that classic idea of spaciousness as luxury, as well as new entertainment and safety features. It does so by combining the best attributes of a large SUV with a car-based platform that allows it to make the most of its space and offers a surprisingly nimble driving experience. | |
