Reviews SummaryOnce ridiculed and now increasing in popularity at an alarming rate, the SUV coupe, a vehicle type originated by BMW and copied by others to varying degrees of success, is taking over the gated suburban enclaves of America. From Acura (remember the ZDX?) to Volvo (C40 Recharge coming right up), automakers are trying the concept on for size, and it doesn’t always fit. However, the 2022 Mercedes-AMG GLE 53 Coupe, a low-roofed version of the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class SUV, is one recipe that works. | |
Reviews SummaryThere are two kinds of Porsche buyers. The first group buys them because they’re Porsches. So does the second group. The difference between the two is that the first group buys Porsches because of the emblems glittering on the bodywork, while the second group buys Porsches for what the wizards in Weissach devise for use under the bodywork. The new 2021 Porsche Cayenne Coupe GTS is for that second group of buyers. | |
