These Rigs Don't Come Cheap
Price says a lot about what's inside a car. Across design studios and performance labs, SUVs are now hand-built, armored, and tech-loaded. Many of them are for those willing to spend on exceptionality. In this list, with prices based on Motor1's 50 Most Expensive SUVs In The World list, you'll find out which ones are setting the current benchmark on the market.

1. Rolls-Royce Black Badge Cullinan: $453,250
Power exudes from every inch of this darker, bolder Cullinan. It swaps traditional wood veneers for carbon fiber while delivering 592 horsepower. Designed for trendsetters craving authority and flair, it rides on bespoke 22-inch wheels with gloss black accents.
2. Ferrari Purosangue: $402,050
Ferrari joined the SUV world and didn't play it safe. This V12-powered machine hits 62 mph in just 3.3 seconds. While its four doors may not look like it, it's bred from Maranello's racing bloodline. Plus, the rear doors are suicide-style for maximum visual drama.
3. Rezvani Hercules 6x6: $395,000
Six wheels, military-grade armor, and hidden smoke screens make this SUV feel ripped from a Hollywood apocalypse script. Built on a RAM 1500 frame, it's for clients demanding invincibility with flair. The interior has optional night vision and a full ballistic protection package included.

4. Mercedes-AMG G63 4x4²: $350,050
With higher ground clearance and better presence, the G63 4x4² turns urban roads into runways and trails into playgrounds. Portal axles and flared arches scream, "No compromise." Built in limited numbers, resale values remain unusually strong for a performance vehicle this size.
5. Bentley Bentayga EWB Mulliner: $339,150
Rear-seat comfort here rivals most first-class lounges. The extended wheelbase space and diamond-quilted details make passengers feel more like monarchs than motorists. Rear doors open wider than standard and reveal folding tables and optional airline-style recliner seats with footrests and climate zoning.
6. Rezvani Vengeance: $285,000
Armor-plated but styled like a sci-fi villain's ride, the Vengeance is no ordinary SUV. Based on a Cadillac Escalade, it's fitted with optional electrified door handles and bulletproof glass. Standard features also include underbody blast protection and a thermal night vision system.

7. Lamborghini Urus Performante: $273,880
This version flaunts 657 horsepower and aggressive aero upgrades and stays lighter and sharper than the base Urus. It shaved seconds off Nürburgring SUV records in 2022. The hood and roof are forged carbon, while titanium exhausts crank up the thunder.
8. Aston Martin DBX 707: $239,086
The DBX 707 is the world's fastest luxury SUV as of 2023, and "707" comes from its metric horsepower rating. Quad exhaust tips and revised dampers set it apart. Gear shifts here are crisp, and 0–60 arrives in a brutal 3.1 seconds.
9. Land Rover Range Rover SV Long Wheelbase: $235,475
This long-wheelbase SV trim offers Executive Class rear seating, including a powered club table and 24-way heated and cooled seats. Built for diplomatic transport and discreet indulgence, it also features ceramic touch controls and sustainable Ultrafabrics in select bespoke configurations.

10. Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT: $197,950
The Turbo GT puts down 631 horsepower and shreds 0–60 in 3.1 seconds. Rear-axle steering and titanium exhausts dial up agility and sound. Its Nürburgring time is 7:38.9—faster than a Ferrari California—and it's only offered in coupe form.
11. Mercedes-Maybach EQS SUV: $181,050
Electric power meets Maybach indulgence in this plush five-seater. Drivers can enjoy rear-seat leg rests and "zero-gravity" massage programs. A Hyperscreen spans the dashboard like a sci-fi cockpit. Despite the weight, the range approaches 285 miles—thanks to aerodynamic tweaks and regenerative braking tech.

12. Mercedes-Maybach GLS600 SUV: $175,500
Champagne flutes are standard, and airmatic suspension is the bare minimum. The GLS600 floats on road imperfections while passengers enjoy heated pillows and E-Active Body Control. Rear occupants can fully recline with leg support, and a disappearing Mercedes badge hides during parking.
13. Rezvani Tank: $175,000
The Tank, with bulletproof glass, a military-grade thermal scope, and optional EMP protection, wasn't designed for school runs. Based on a Jeep Wrangler platform, it ditches subtlety for survival. Buyers also get magnetic deadbolts and gas masks—just in case plans go sideways..

14. BMW XM: $159,995
This plug-in hybrid M vehicle delivers 738 hp and styling that polarizes. Its 29.5 kWh battery grants around 30 miles of electric-only range, while the interior features Merino leather and sculpted Alcantara roof lighting. Only the M1 preceded it as a standalone M.
15. Cadillac Escalade-V: $155,515
The Escalade-V's supercharged 6.2L V8 cranks out 682 horsepower, making it the most powerful full-size SUV Cadillac has ever built. You'll get Magnetic Ride Control, a 38-inch curved OLED display, and a launch control system that laughs at its own size..

16. Alpina XB7: $150,395
Think of the XB7 as a private jet on wheels. Alpina's tuning adds 631 horsepower and hand-finished interior touches. Built alongside the BMW X7 in Spartanburg, it features bespoke gauges and hidden exhaust valves. Its top speed—180 mph—is rare for a three-row SUV.
17. Mercedes-AMG GLS63: $147,000
The GLS63 hauls families and flies past sports sedans with ease, thanks to its three rows and 603 horsepower. AMG's twin-scroll turbos and air suspension keep the ride balanced, even during hard acceleration. Plus, the rear wheels steer slightly to improve tight cornering and maneuverability.
18. Mercedes-Benz G-Class: $144,150
This icon started as a military vehicle in 1979 and never lost its edge. G-Class models now include 12.3-inch digital displays and customizable ambient lighting. Its doors shut with a vault-like thud, while approach and departure angles still rival most serious off-roaders..
19. BMW X6 (M Competition): $128,195
With the X6 M Competition, 617 horsepower is shoved into a sleek body with wide haunches and an angry stance. A rear-biased xDrive and launch control help it hit 60 in 3.7 seconds. The roofline sacrifices headroom, but owners rarely seem to mind.
20. Audi RS Q8: $127,590
Underneath the RS Q8's refined frame lies Lamborghini Urus DNA—the same platform and engine block. Audi dials back the drama but keeps 591 horsepower and torque-vectoring sport differentials. Inside, you find honeycomb-stitched leather and carbon inlays. It's Nürburgring-tested and family-friendly but surprisingly under the radar.
