If you’re in the market for a large, premium & German SUV, which should you choose - the Porsche Cayenne, BMW X5, Mercedes GLE, Audi Q7 or Volkswagen Touareg?

Well, we’ve pulled all five together, and Mat’s going to compare all five against each other to see which is the best buy in 2024!

So let’s see how the five compare regarding performance & price. Starting with the Porsche, the edition we have here is the Cayenne e-hybrid. It’s powered by a 3-litre turbo V6 coupled with an electric motor, and this can deliver 470hp and 650Nm of torque. The range starts at £76,000, but the car we have here costs around £102,000.

The VW Touareg also houses the same engine and motor. However, it’s down on power compared to the Porsche, producing 462hp and 700Nm. The range starts at £69,000, but this edition costs £89,000.

The next most powerful car here is the Mercedes GLE. It’s powered by a 3-litre straight-six turbo diesel as well as an electric motor. These combine to put down 389hp and 750Nm of torque. The GLE range costs from around £77,000, while the car we have here costs around £92,000.

Next up is the all-new BMW X5. It’s hiding a 3-litre straight-six turbo diesel under the bonnet, and this puts down 298hp and 670Nm. The entry-level X5 costs from £70,600, but the car we have here is the second most expensive of the five, costing around £94,000.

Then finally we have the Audi Q7. This edition comes with a 3-litre V6 turbo diesel under the bonnet, and this puts down 286hp and 600Nm. The entry-level Q7 is the cheapest car of the five here, costing around £65,000, while the car we have here costs £87,000.

But which of the five is the best car for you? You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!
