Top 10 Luxury Cars to Take On This Winter | GVE London – Blog

As winter approaches, the need for a reliable, luxurious vehicle becomes paramount. Whether you’re navigating snowy roads, dealing with icy conditions, or simply seeking comfort on longer journeys, having the right car can make all the difference.

Here’s a roundup of the top 10 luxury cars that are perfectly suited to tackle winter challenges while providing style and comfort.

Best 10 Luxury Cars for Winter

1. Land Rover – Defender 

The Defender is an iconic SUV hailing from our very own ground. Its roots go all the way back to 1947 when it was initially conceived by Maurice Wilks, the chief designer at the British automaker Rover Company, to be used on British farms and military bases. Naturally, the car had to be almost tank-like—a car you could take anywhere. The modern-day Defender, despite being leaps and bounds ahead of its predecessors, still retains that tank-like quality and is arguably one of the best luxury SUVs out there, capable of handling all terrains and climates.

2. Ferrari Purosangue

The first-ever SUV by Ferrari, they had to make it special—and they did not disappoint. The Purosangue is a complete package: a high-performance Ferrari, with the comfort and capabilities you’d expect from a luxury SUV. Its all-wheel drive (AWD), paired with its powerful V12 and adaptive suspension system, makes it more than capable of conquering any terrain. Strap on some winter tyres, and you’re good to go for the snowy months.

3. Rolls-Royce Cullinan

Rolls-Royce’s name alone evokes a sense of awe, for their cars are, arguably, the epitome of luxury. The Cullinan is no different in terms of features and luxury, but being an SUV, it is exceptionally capable and utilitarian. Despite being a super-refined luxury SUV, its 6.75-litre twin-turbo V12 engine and permanent all-wheel drive, along with self-levelling air suspension, make it more than capable of driving through the cold winters in sheer class.

4. Aston Martin DBX707

While we do not expect anything less from Aston Martin, it is pleasantly surprising to see just how well the classic Aston Martin look has translated over to the SUV style. This one may be a gas guzzler, but with an engine that pumps out 697bhp (707PS) and 663lb-ft of torque, it is to be expected. It was the most powerful SUV until the Purosangue showed up. It’s more than capable of handling the winter season, and you can always strap on some snow tyres or chains for any snow adventures.

5. Lamborghini Urus

Fast, aggressive, intimidating—these are all words that come to mind when speaking of the Lamborghini Urus. The Urus, when it was launched in 2017, was quite an unexpected move by Lamborghini and marked their entry into the SUV market. Since then, it seems every supercar brand has jumped on the bandwagon of SUVs.

It’s truly a magnificent piece of machinery, showcasing just how capable it is off and on track. Being an SUV, it needed to be practical. For winter, the Urus is equipped with a specific driving mode called NEVE, designed for snow and ice-covered roads, along with a permanent all-wheel drive system with active rear torque vectoring, which enhances traction and handling on various terrains.

6. Mercedes G63

If this list were in a particular order, the G63, commonly referred to as the G-Wagon, would surely be in the top 3 with a claim to the top spot, no doubts about it. Whilst it is now commonly used for mere luxury travel, the car was initially built in the 1970s as a military 4×4 vehicle under a collaboration between Daimler-Benz and Steyr-Daimler-Puch. It was designed to meet the demands of military operations, with a focus on off-road capability and durability, similar to the Defender.
Again, similar to the Defender, despite advancing in terms of luxury and technology, it has retained and further improved upon its ruggedness and off-road capabilities. The G-Wagon is one of those cars that you can take anywhere, no matter the weather. 

6. Land Rover Range Rover

The Land Rover Range Rover is the epitome of luxury and off-road capability. With its advanced Terrain Response system, it can adapt to any driving condition, including snow and ice. The opulent interior, complete with high-grade materials and state-of-the-art technology, ensures that you travel in style and comfort.

7. Bentley Bentayga

Bentley took a gamble with the Bentayga, as it was their very first SUV. Soon after, it became one of their top-selling cars. With a fully specced-out version, the performance here is monstrous, coming from its 6.0-litre W12 engine. It isn’t overly technical on the inside, which is both a good and a bad thing, depending on whom you ask. Despite being a luxury SUV, it has some major off-roading capabilities, with various drive modes and an all-wheel drive system, which translates well to winter driving situations.

8. Audi Q7

The Audi Q7 is a standout in the luxury SUV segment, equipped with Quattro all-wheel drive, which provides exceptional traction and stability on slippery roads. Its spacious interior and advanced safety features make it a family favourite, while the premium materials and advanced infotainment system add a touch of sophistication. 

9. Porsche Cayenne

For those who seek a sportier driving experience, the Porsche Cayenne delivers. This luxury SUV offers an impressive combination of performance and comfort, with its active all-wheel-drive system providing superb traction. The Cayenne’s powerful engines and precise handling make it a joy to drive, even in challenging winter conditions. 

10. Maserati Levante

For those looking for a blend of Italian elegance and winter capability, the Maserati Levante fits the bill. This luxury SUV features an intelligent all-wheel-drive system that enhances performance in various conditions. The opulent interior, highlighted by fine leather and advanced technology, ensures that every journey is as luxurious as it is enjoyable.
