Modern SUVs: The Good, The Bad & the Complex

There’s no question that today’s SUVs and crossovers are far more advanced than their predecessors from just a decade ago. From their complex suspension and off-road systems to their different drive modes and transmissions, to their now, hybrid, electric and turbocharged powertrains, these everyday family haulers are more intricate than ever. But is all this technology necessary and even wanted by the consumer, and ultimately, does it make these machines better? Oh, and don’t even get us started on the cost.

To help us answer these questions and more we’re joined today by Ryan Douthit of Driving Sports TV. Ryan’s specialty is reviewing the latest and greatest in the off-road and SUV segment, and he even has his own test facility to do it. So, if you’re in the market for a new crossover, off-roader, or SUV, this is an episode you’ll not want to miss!
