8.5/10
When it comes to comfort and refinement on four wheels, it really doesn't get much better than the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. It's proven itself one of the best cars on the road, with a luxuriously appointed interior and state-of-the-art in-car tech and driver aids. "The best or nothing" indeed.

The Genesis G90 is an appealing alternative to established flagship sedans. It's a stylish vehicle that also offers exceptional value, if such a thing can be said of a six-figure sedan. Cabin quality is impeccable and it's a pleasure to hop behind the wheel. Lackluster smartphone integration and a small trunk are the main qualities that underwhelm.
MSRP
$89,700 - $100,000

We don't often recommend coupe-like sedans. But in the case of the 8 Series Gran Coupe, BMW created a winner. It looks sportier than your typical luxury sedan and still provides real passenger space and decent utility . And it's surprisingly fun to drive.
MSRP
$91,700 - $107,300

The latest 7 Series is a worthy flagship for the BMW lineup. Its interior is suitably opulent and gigantic. The 7 Series can also be a technology powerhouse, highlighted by an available hands-free highway driving system and jaw-dropping 31-inch rear theater screen.
MSRP
$97,300 - $122,400
Combined MPG
20 - 28
5th
Edmunds Rating
7.4/10
The Audi A8 is known for delivering sophisticated luxury and cutting-edge technology in a restrained fashion. It also serves as a rolling showcase of Audi's latest features and innovations. The A8 doesn't feel quite as special or cohesive as some of its luxury competition, however.
