One of the concept cars is the Seltos X-Line Trail Attack concept, and the other is the Seltos X-Line Urban concept. Both were designed at Kia Design Center America and built by Zero to 60 Designs of Corona, CA.
Just how fast do you need you uber-luxury SUV to actually go? If you're Mercedes-Benz, and the glitzy truck in question is the 2021 Mercedes-AMG GLS 63, the answer is apparently 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds and an electronically-limited top speed of 174 mph. Not bad at all for something with seating for up to seven.
Mercedes-Benz has priced up its first all-electric SUV, the 2020 EQC, confirming it'll start from under $70k when it arrives in the US - and that's before federal tax incentives. Announced more than a year ago, the ECQ isn't expected to arrive on North American shores until early 2020.
Aston Martin is taking the time to talk up its upcoming DBX SUV. The DBX is the first Aston SUV and is entering the final stages of development. The vehicle may be an SUV more focused on hauling people and stuff than your typical Aston sports car, but it is still seeing extensive track development.
Some cars are just plain iconic, and so expectations for the 2020 Land Rover Defender are understandably high. Making its long-anticipated debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show 2019 today, the all-new SUV will come in 2020 Defender 90 three-door and 2020 Defender 110 five-door versions, with an optional mild-hybrid gas engine and plenty of off-roading ability.
It's been five years since the second-generation Volvo XC90 began the wholesale reboot of the automaker's range, and it's fair to say that the 2020 XC90 arrives - refreshed and updated - on a high. The Swedes aren't typically prone to either smugness or boasting, but with Volvo sales in the US up almost 5-percent so far this year, versus the industry as a whole down almost 2-percent over the same period, it's clear they're doing something right.
Lincoln is taking luxury SUVs seriously, and the 2020 Aviator is fine evidence of that. Bringing another three-row option to the automaker's range, it may be smaller than the Navigator but the new Aviator is no less luxurious. Indeed, with a potent 630 lb-ft of torque to play with in 2020 Aviator Grand Touring Hybrid form, there's an argument to be made that this could be the best example of Lincoln's "American Luxury" yet.
Audi's e-tron SUV may not have been the first all-electric luxury car to US roads, but it can claim to be the first such vehicle to get a 2019 IIHS Top Safety Pick+ rating. The new fully battery-electric SUV has managed to scoop rivals like the Tesla Model X and Mercedes-Benz EQC to the independent safety test's top score.
Considering how fundamental the Escalade has been to Cadillac staying afloat, it's a surprise that the three-row 2020 Cadillac XT6 took so long to arrive. Still, the XT6 may be late to the segment, but the automaker is confident that its combination of comfort and cabin tech will help close the gap.
BMW has revealed the 2020 BMW X6, and if you like your SUVs to have a coupe-like roofline and up to 523 horsepower, you're in luck. The crossover that BMW insists is actually a category-creating Sports Activity Coupe (SAC) gets bolder styling, a fancier interior, and a new illuminated grille.
If one of your primary problems with Lexus' beefiest SUV was that its grille simply wasn't bold enough, good news: the 2020 GX 460 is here, and the spindle grille is more gaping than ever. The updated three-row SUV follows the rest of Lexus' line-up with a wider, taller, and very, very controversial grille, but also adds a new off-road specific package to the options list and bumps up the standard safety tech.
