Top Luxury Crossover Vehicles of 2016

A crossover SUV, or CUV, is built on a car platform, blending features of traditional SUVs such as high ground clearance, elevated seating, and all-wheel drive, with the comfort and handling of passenger vehicles. Using unibody construction instead of the heavier body-on-frame design typical of trucks, crossovers offer a car-like driving experience while retaining SUV characteristics. They are popular for combining versatility, luxury, and sporty styling, making them an excellent choice for modern drivers seeking comfort and capability in one vehicle.
