Land Rover Range Rover (2002 - Current)
We say:
The epitome of ultra-luxury SUVs gets a deserving upgrade with a turbo diesel V8 engine. This 640 Nm monster is just as good as its petrol counterparts and is more practical (and cheaper too). All Range Rovers are similarly (and nicely) speced, so it's just down to which engine you'd like to have under the hood. On-road manners are surprisingly good and it's even better off-road.

There's simply nothing more upscale or respected than this.
Thirsty (even with the TDV8), ordinary looks.
