All SUVs have the same structural outline, whether small, midsize, large, and crossover, but sometimes it's what's on the inside that counts. Since SUVs hit the market, automakers have become smarter at the luxury, comfort, and detail that makes and SUV stand out from the rest. Conveniences and creature comforts, such as mobile Wi-Fi and premium audio, have become the norm. These touches create amazing interiors in SUVs that are great for heading out on the open road or simply running the family around town. While many SUVs brag about power and tow ratings, some of them have amazing interiors that are sure to please the most discerning driver. Here, we'll reveal our favorite new luxury SUVs with the best interiors. Read on to learn which SUVs dominate the market in style.
In a market segment full of luxury, the 2018 GMC Acadia offers extreme comfort, modern styling and impressive technology for a spectacular value. The new Acadia is available in four trims, with the SLT and Denali trims highlighting the lineup. The Acadia Denali gets numerous luxury features such as an 8-inch touchscreen with navigation, heated and ventilated seats, a plush leather interior, configurable virtual gauges, a premium Bose audio system and more.
With the 2018 Infiniti QX80, the basic driving controls are easy to reach, but some controls can be a stretch. On the Acadia, the major controls are well-placed and easy to use. With the Tahoe, the straightforward controls are familiar and easy to use.
If you want a spacious interior, check out the 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan. It has a striking amount of room for cargo and passengers and just narrowly missed our list. The Acadia and the Tahoe both have small third-row seats when compared with the Infiniti QX80. These smaller third-row seats are probably most comfortable for children.
The 2018 Chevrolet Tahoe comes in three trim levels: LS, LT and Premier. Standard features include remote keyless entry, remote ignition, rear parking sensors, tri-zone automatic climate control, 60/40-split folding second- and third-row bench seats, a teen-driver monitoring system, OnStar communication that includes a 4G LTE connection and a Wi-Fi hotspot, a 110-volt power outlet, a rearview camera, Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, and five USB ports.
These are the best full-size luxury SUVs of 2018, and each can transport up to seven or eight passengers, depending on the model. These SUVs are designed to be incredibly comfortable for drivers and passengers alike, with upper trim models offering leather upholstery, heated seats and even personal entertainment systems for rear-seat passengers. These luxurious SUVs also have large cargo areas to fit a wide range of gear.
The Infiniti QX80 has an 8-inch touchscreen display with navigation and voice controls. The Acadia's Denali trim has an 8-inch display and a navigation system, OnStar with 4G in-vehicle Wi-Fi, a surround-view camera system, a customizable gauge cluster, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless charging, and five USB ports. The Tahoe comes with OnStar communication (including a 4G LTE connection and a Wi-Fi hotspot) and Chevy's MyLink infotainment system with 8-inch touchscreen and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. Another great option is the 2018 Land Rover Discovery, which features the next-get Touch Pro infotainment system with a 10-inch HD touchscreen, connected navigation, a premium audio system and rear-seat entertainment screens.
If you want a quiet cabin, then you really need to see the 2018 Jaguar F-Pace, which did not make our list. While the competition in this area is stiff, the Infiniti QX80 has the quietest cabin of our highlighted SUVs.
That would be the concept for the 2018 Lincoln Navigator. Though the production model doesn't have quite as many bells and whistles, the concept Navigator immediately grabs attention with its twin gullwing doors and retractable staircase. Climb those three teakwood steps, and you'll find plush seating, seven infotainment screens, piano key controls, and the full range of high-tech safety and convenience features. Like upper-end trims of the production model, the interior's design is both modern and simplistic with calming blues, cool grays and wood trim.
There's a host of standard features on the 2018 Infiniti QX80 including keyless entry and ignition, automatic tri-zone climate control, automatic high-beam control, a sunroof, roof rails, a power liftgate, front and rear parking sensors, leather upholstery, power seats, second-row captain's chairs, a 360-degree parking camera, Bluetooth phone and audio connectivity, an 8-inch touchscreen display with navigation and voice controls, satellite radio, an auxiliary audio jack and a total of four USB ports.
