The luxury car market is currently as good as its ever been. Those in search of a top-flight option are offered a vast array of exceptionally wonderful vehicles. Each car is equipped with its own specifically-designed bells and whistles. As a result, there’s much in the way of diversity when selecting an option.
Here are the five best brand new luxury cars out on the market:
2017 Audi A7
Known as a leading brand within the luxury car genre, Audi released an impressive model with the 2018 Audi A7. Normally, cars of this ilk would get mediocre-to-poor gas mileage. However in this case, the A7 garners averages of 15-20 miles per gallon within city driving, and 24-29 miles on the highway. The spacious interior of the car — coupled with the sleek appearance — truly provides the passengers/driver with a regal atmosphere. In terms of performance, varying models offer anywhere from 340-605 HP. This allows for the driver to smoothly travel amidst less-than-ideal weather conditions. Lastly, the 24.5 cubic-feet of cargo space is among the best in its class when compared to competitors.
2017 Tesla Model S
We know the Tesla models don’t get great car mileage. The range of the vehicle will get roughly 200-300 miles (depending on selection). With that said…very few people utilize luxury cars on road trips. This car is simply an emblem of class and power. The combination of performance and technology is unparalleled in regards to any other competitor. One in search of a car with supreme acceleration would do exceptionally well here. The Model S P100D can go 0-to-60 in as little as 2.5 seconds. Duly, the base model begins at $69,500 — which is rather affordable when considering the overall package presented by Tesla.
2017 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
The 2017 Mercedes S-Class screams sophistication in every sense of the world. Performance wise, the car gets a respectable 13-18 miles per gallon in city driving, and 21-26 miles per gallon on the highway. There’s truly an impressive line-up of engines to choose from — ranging from 436-621 HP. Comparatively speaking to the rest of cars in its class, the S-Class stands alone with immensely comfortable seating and a marvelous interior. The base model starts at a shade under $100,000 — though the perks and traits of the vehicle make the price a reasonable one.
2017 Porsche 911
There are multiple options within the Porsche umbrella. All of them are quality purchases — though the Porsche 911 takes the proverbial cake as the premier go-to for luxury car buyers. The newly improved six-cylinder turbocharged 3.0-liter engine gives the Porsche 911 enhanced levels of acceleration and overall performance. The handling of the vehicle is also improved — which will come in handy for navigating narrow turns and winding roads. Within city driving, the Porsche 911 gets a respectable 19-22 miles per gallon. Within the highway, it receives 24-30 miles per gallon. The starting price for a base Porsche 911 registers at $89,400.
2017 Genesis G90
The Genesis G90 is the new kid on the luxury car block. An entirely new brand, the Hyundai-based model is sleek in appearance. For a car of its stature, the handling capabilities are quite impressive. A standard 365-HP twin-turbocharged V6 engine makes for potent performance. The Genesis G90 gets up to 17 miles per gammon in the city, and 24 miles per gallon within highway driving. From a safety standpoint, the vehicle registered a “GOOD” in every major category of the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety). The starting price for the base model is $68,000. While this car might not hold the cachet of some of its competitors, it’s a quality option at an affordable price nonetheless.
