There aren’t any compelling electric SUVs, that I can think of. There are zero electric trucks.
Looking at what may come in the next few years, I think Rivian has a winner in both the truck and SUV. The Hummer truck looks amazing, imo (I have a reservation). The Hummer SUV is less interesting, to me. However, once GM puts their electric tech into a Tahoe/Yukon I think that’ll be a real winner.
I didn’t reserve A F150 Lightning on the basis that I liked the Rivian more and my experience with Ford has not been good, in the past. However, I use my moonroof a LOT and today I was riding around enjoying the openness and it is making me second guess whether I’d be happy with a fixed glass roof (stupid decision by Rivian, imo). Maybe I should reserve a F150 just to hedge my bets? I’d be so far down on the list that it’d be years before I could get a delivery, however.
For hybrid SUVs, I like the Volvo XC90 T8/Recharge.
I have decided I won’t buy another non-hybrid/electric vehicle. Otherwise, I really like the Mercedes GLE. The Kia Telluride and Hyundai Palisade are not bad.
For hybrid trucks, there is only one: Ford F150. I tried to test drive one, but there is zero inventory in my area.
For non-hybrid trucks, I’ve had the best ownership experience with GMC and I like their exterior styling, but their interiors are not competitive, at this time. RAM has the best interior, hands down, but the rest of the truck I’m not so sure.
I’m intrigued to see what Toyota does with the Tundra for 2022…. They’re so far behind the competition it’s a disgrace. If they don’t come out of the gate with a best-in-class offering with a HYBRID powertrain, then they should be ashamed of themselves.
