Lexus 450h would be a great car to buy for a holiday gift

Lexus RX 450

We love the sleek modern design of this Lexus. It is certainly luxurious from the outside in. Kim Smith says, “The smooth hybrid engine is quiet, even when the car transitions from gas to electric or initiates the Start-Stop Technology, the SUV remains quiet.” With a 15-speaker premium audio system and a remote touchpad with pinch/zoom functionality, the infotainment system does not disappoint.

Mercedes Benz GLE

The luxury SUV brand is all grown up with this 3rd-row model. Well appointed with ample leather details and finishes this Mercedez doesn’t disappoint. The top of the line model even has a Spa mode. The feature activates heated massaging seats, lowers the cabin lights, activates relaxing music and diffuses a calming fragrance throughout the cabin. Tilt your seat back, look up at the stars through the panoramic sunroof and relax (in a safe parking space, of course).

Volvo XC90

You’ll know this car is luxurious the second you open the driver side door. One of the first things likely to catch your eye is the crystal gear selector. Yes, it’s actually made from Orrefors Crystal. I’d feel underdressed in my typical mom’s clothes, but I’d still drive it for sure. Sculptural middle row captains chairs are also unlike most in the class of vehicles. a 12-inch touch screen comes standard at every price point.

You can even use your smartphone to serve as your car key (currently, the only American brand with this feature).

Audi Q5 tops are list for small luxury SUVs to ask Santa for

Audi Q5

This is my personal family car. After downsizing from a 3rd-row vehicle, we upgraded to our very first luxury vehicle. We LOVE it! It’s really the first car I’ve owned that I consider truly fun to drive. I don’t procrastinate from running errands in this baby. Luxury features we love include cozy leather seating, ambient lighting (my daughter loves blue), 3-zone climate control and the 19 speakers Bang & Olufsen sound system.

The Acura RDX is a 2-row luxury vehicle we've added to our holiday wish list.

Acura RDX

The exterior of the car is a real stunner. We recommend red if you really want to turn heads. Inside, the luxury model surrounds you with buttery soft leather. A split-screen infotainment system lets you see the navigation map and your Spotify playlist at the same time. A hidden compartment in the cargo space allows you to hide your valuables like a camera, computer or perhaps a few extra shopping finds you don’t want hubby to see.

Perfect for city dwellers, we've added the Lexus UX to our holiday wish list

Lexus UX

The UX is the perfect car for drivers who need a smaller SUV. It’s a perfect choice for city dwellers who need to park in smaller spaces. Lexus says, “With a best-in-class turning radius and specially tuned suspension, the UX performs as well in tight spaces as it does on the open road.” Upscaled interior features and a convenient kick sensor to open the rear hatch are other perks we love.

Looking for an affordable luxury SUV? this Mazda CX5 may be just want you need.

If you are looking for affordable luxury, this compact SUV may be just what y0u need. Reviewer, Scotty Reiss Says “There’s the leather upholstery of course. And plenty of places to put your stuff. But it’s all framed in chrome, leather, and panels of elegant satinwood that give the interior a sublime, rich feel.” The exterior features a more sculpted look with deep gloss paint. It’s sure to turn heads. I’m in love with this cobalt blue color.

The Cadillac XT4 made our list of luxury SUVs you might want to ask Santa for.

Reviewer Tamika Williams says, “The drive was as smooth riding for the passengers as it was for me. I don’t love to drive long distances, but this time I just didn’t mind. Something about the ride allowed me to maintain my energy for the entire ride instead of suffering driver’s fatigue, as I usually do.” A Bose sound system and heated massaging seats top the list of the luxury features we love.
