Reviews SummaryOne year on from the latest-generation Lexus GX’s debut, the excitement is still there. The 2025 Lexus GX looks great, drives well, and handles itself incredibly well off-road. The latter is something for which that the GX has always been renowned, at least among those who’ve been inclined to find out. Verdict: With great standard tech, safety equipment, looks, and overall versatility, the Lexus GX is worth the attention of any shopper who’s in the market for a luxury SUV. | |
Reviews SummaryThe 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid comes equipped with a hybrid four-cylinder powertrain, impressive safety tech, and plenty of cargo space. Although the Santa Fe hybrid may not look as modern as some of its primary competitors—namely the Kia Sorento Hybrid, Toyota Highlander Hybrid, or Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe—it remains a sensible choice, priced below all of those other options. Verdict: We recommend the 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid to shoppers who value safety, cargo space, and fuel efficiency over the latest tech features or the newest styling trends. | |
