Lexus RX L
Take the Lexus RX, add two more seats in the back and a bit more length and, hey presto, you've created the RX L. It's impressively reliable, well built inside and comes bursting with equipment.

Mercedes-AMG 4-door
AMG's first stand-alone four-seat grand tourer has considerable pace and poised handling.
