Toureg for me please. Always liked this vehicle ever since it was released. ANy car that can tow a Boeing 747 is certainly good enough for me. Incase my plane ever runs out of fuel and I need to get her back home some how!

 

[PanterroR]

X6 for me!

Cayenne GTS without thinking twice!

 

[fortuner]

Wasn't it Mercedes who had that idea first when the ML 420cdi was launched? It hink I remember an official pic of the ML towing a big Airbus or Boeing...

Anyway ML for me, just looks so much better...And what an engine! What a noise!

performance total 300 270 279 231

now see where the ML lost it

Basic price 80 35 19 31

Consumption/environment 40 18 5 30

Do people buying these cars actually care about the price and the second one is utterly rubbish.Does the ML have fuel consumption that is more than 3 times poor than that of a Cayenne?

GTS has only 405hp while the Benz got more than 500hp. I think that make a difference in fuel consumption.

Touareg R50 for me! I love the look and the engine.

 

[Tarek]

Gorgeous looking cars,ML63 for me! it's just so damn sexy and modern despite it's showing it's age now followed by the Touareg which is also stunning as for Porsche not sure about the looks but it's a technical marvel

The ML63 wins easily in performance department which leads to a bigger fuel consumption problem but i think if u buy a performance SUV that's the last thing on ur mind.

 

[cawimmer430]

I'd like the ML and Touareg, not crazy about the Cayenne.

By the way those pictures of the three SUVs in the dirt are awesome.

 

[Bruce]

I like (and yes, "like" is the word I use) all three just about equal. I think I'll go with the Cayenne though...

 

[PHYBENZ]

I'll go with the ML, but you would think that on the 63 they could at least put the GL dash to make it more luxurious. Look at how the dash and door panels shine in those pictures, looks a little cheap.

maybe but

cayenne S has consumption of 13.9 liters/100 km while ML63 has consumtion figures of 16.2 liters/100 km.not much of a difference if you ask me.

 

[castagna]

The AMG is a hell of a car.

Damn the Porsche looks really good here. That GTS idea is the best thing Porsche has come up for the Cayenne since the original's introduction. I'd have to go with the Porsche here and then the Benz. Love the VW's interior, but I would hate driving it. The ML's interior greatly outclassed here too.

So true. They didn't bother that much about interior with this ML, same case was the with the old one too.

 

[ateekt]

If it's a suv, it should have to be a Cayenne ...!

 

[LaArtist]

and the T-reg is OOOOLD
