2022–2023 Lincoln Nautilus – Midsize Luxury SUV
Pros: Both powertrains available on the Lincoln Nautilus are strong, and the ute delivers a smooth, quiet ride. Many driver assist safety features are standard. We also dig this Lincoln’s attractive, well-appointed cabin, which features an impressive 13.2-inch infotainment touchscreen and excellent materials.
Cons: Fuel economy isn’t great for the base turbo-four engine, and the V-6’s eight-speed automatic transmission can sometimes be slow to act. There’s not enough seat bolstering on any of the Nautilus’ seats.

2023 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class – Midsize Luxury SUV
Pros: Most models are competent and luxurious. With its air suspension and midrange output, the Mercedes-Benz GLE450’s handling is confident, and power delivery is refined. Every GLE comes with a spacious, quiet interior. GLEs even have off-road chops.
Cons: The base model comes with an incompetent, unrefined suspension that somewhat spoils the luxury. The GLE’s MBUX infotainment software is let down by clunky menus and a fiddly console-mounted touchpad.
